Won't work on the website for my textbook, which is the only thing I needed it for. Tried everything the other reviews said to do for it to work if it didn't and to no avail. Disappointed.

It was COMPLETELY useless for using it on the page it doesn't work as good as all the reviews say its not a real TTS if you can't do it on everything i don't recommend this to anyone using this for anything other then news.

Simple, lightweight, but only works sometimes. It's skips paragraphs with no way to intervene and focus on text that was skipped over. Was using read aloud which was very good but recent updates made it buggy and unusable. I installed this and it works ok but has issues

Pretty good, but when I use the google english voices, it doesn't go from line to line automatically anymore, you have to keep clicking forwards now but it wasn't like that before.

I click on the extension and nothing happens...nothing popped up. After trying several times i tried other pages then worked. There are other apps that give you more options of English voices and features.
