Read to me Extension

Listen to any text in your browser in a voice of your choice.

READ TO ME is a text to speech Chrome extension for reading out loud any text in your browser in many languages. The app makes listening to everything on your screen effortless with a functional smooth design and customizable options as a selection of male and female voices, voice pitch and reading speed.

Spoken text has several advantages over reading. The most obvious one is the option to multitask as your eyes and hands are free, but also it is considered that it can enhance comprehension. Listening is also great for those with disabilities or disadvantages that make reading either impossible or extremely difficult.

Hannah Crye (ID: 0000007c60fd69f7) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 02/08/2023 The voice talks with an accent that's hard to understand. I tried changing it but they all sound distorted. I highlight an area for it to read and it only makes it through the first couple sentences then stops. Now it won't load at all... worst extension I've come across yet.
