Rafael PAF (ID: 00000019ff11c9a1) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/10/2023 The extension is not working anymore. Plese, fix it!

Blake Hall (ID: 000000b441122a02) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 04/15/2023 This used to work really well with Kindle Cloud Reader (and I didn't mind paying for it), but now it does not work with the site at all. There are no updates from the developer to suggest if or when this will be fixed - the website linked in the extension download page doesn't work, and the Github page has not been updated it seems in 2 years. I was still being billed so I unsubscribed on Paypal.

Jay Statham (ID: 000000dcb0c6646e) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 07/07/2022 COMPLETE bait & switch offering! I installed this extension from the Opera Extension offerings for TTS readers. It was the first one that came up. I started using it with an eBook reader online and got 13% through the book when up popped the paywall demanding $4.99 to continue. I went to the "DETAILS" page of the installed extension and there was NO mention that this was a trial. Further, the paywall that pops up does NOT say who's asking to be paid. I first though it was the eBook site, but I was ALREADY paying for that. With NO identifier as to who was asking for $.4.99, I chose to pay by credit care "assuming" there it would show who was being "paid" if I had gone through with it. It did not. I started looking through the support page for my eBook reader to see if I could find where THEY were trying to charge $4.99, found nothing. RIGHT before I was about to write support for my eBook reader online I decided to go to the website for the extension and only there, at the VERY BOTTOM of the description, did I finally see "TRIAL." If this had been on the original extension site, or in the Details for the extension, I would have seen it and not used it. Since it's literally HIDDEN so you have to HUNT on the extension website, you won't know it's a trial until, like me, you're 13% into a book, playing in the background while working on a project I didn't have TIME to stop working on to research this Bait & Switch offering. Therefore, I consider this company's business practice HIGHLY misleading and predatory. If youj have to TRICK people into using your product, then what kind of future do you have? Either be UP FRONT about your offering, or don't put it out there. If I can give ZERO stars I would since I'm SO aggravated about the time it's taken me to figure this out. Once I did, I took MORE time to write this NEGATIVE review to hopefully save others the same fate. I hope this extension is removed from the Chrome and Opera offerings. #karma

Gabrielle Clarke (ID: 000000598a1fa346) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/21/2022 I actually found this extension to be very useful reading an ebook on Overdrive for me. It would have been nice if I could have used it on my mobile device and not only on my lap top, but I did find it useful and of good quality overall. I only rated 2 stars though because I am highly dissatisfied with how hard it is to figure out how to cancel your subscription. I shouldn't have to waste hours of my time trying to cancel a subscription I am not using anymore. There is no information on how to cancel in the extension itself, google chrome store, or the website link in the extension description on google chrome store. I just finally found how to stop paying for this extension I am not using anymore in the review comments. The undisclosed and difficult cancelation process makes it seem that this extension is trying to make money off inconveniencing their customers rather than quality of product and service.
