Easy Read Bee - text reader provides an overlay to cover the screen offering several different colours for users to choose from. Further you can change the colour of the text so that it further reduces the contrast with a simple reading mode extension.

Often reading on a screen can cause strain on the eyes and most of the time this is not perceptible to your consciousness. Read Bee are helpful to keep your eyes in a text view mode. The only way you can tell is your inability to read long pieces of text after a while.

Isa Kreativ (ID: 0000001f7ff21288) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/18/2023 Très bien ! Si, sur certains sites, ça ne montre pas tout le texte (à cause des trucs de blocages mis sur le site) il suffit de sélectionner manuellement tout le texte. Même si, en sélectionnant le texte, on sélectionne du même coup des pubs etc, le addon va les reconnaître et ne les ajoutera pas dans le produit final.) (En sélectionnant le texte, ça indique ce qu'on vise.) Une fois le texte entier sélectionné, il suffit de cliquer sur le bouton de l'addon (dans le haut de page, à côté du bouton des extensions). Du coup, ça bascule vers le résultat. Et voilà! De plus, quand ce résultat écrémé en "reader mode" s'affiche, on peut imprimer vers pdf avec le bouton Imprimante du browser, ou avec un autre addon (comme GoFullPage). Le résultat est un texte lisible, sans pubs, et avec toutes les photos et images qui sont dans le texte initial ! Impeccable! Merci au développeur!
