Use Immersive Reader on Websites Extension

After you install this [UNOFFICIAL!] extension, you'll be able to select text and right-click it to use Microsoft's Immersive Reader with it!

This extension is not published or endorsed by Microsoft in any way, and it's not supported by any company. But I'll keep it going for free as long as its useful!

Remigio Ruberto (ID: 0000000100444794) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/18/2024 from time to time, always ... ip not found on newselaimmersivereader.cognitiveservices.azure.com.

P Man (ID: 000000407a4850d1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/03/2023 With MS now removing this essential tool from Edge, this is the only way to get the Grammar tools with the syllable splitter and the parts of speech highlighter. They are an amazing resource in the classroom especially with the focus now on phonics based reading.

Tricia Louis (ID: 0000007099056b18) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/03/2023 A superb extension! I have shared this extension with hundreds of educators at various conferences over the last couple years and each time I share it, I get so many "oohs & aahs" of how powerful it is. Thank you so much for this extension - it is such a gift to anyone who needs that little bit of extra help reading web content!

Олександр (ID: 000000a06d385d3a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/07/2023 Can you help me set and save a black background? Unfortunately, I have to set it up every time. I mean that for some reason, every time I click 'help me read this,' the previous settings are lost, and I get a white background again

Doodle Bug (ID: 0000004a0f0aba67) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/29/2023 Covered my entire screen, making it impossible to actually select any text. Even fully zoomed out I couldn't find the option to make it smaller. The option to change text box size did show up on a different webpage so I'm unsure what caused this issues. Regardless, it's unusable for me.
