- Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Greg, vor 5 MonatenThis add-on is super helpful in working and free time, especially when I have a hard time focusing on large blocks of text, so much so that I'm going to be using it for the foreseeable future.
The best part is that it doesn't cost anything like the original Bionic font. I don't believe accessibility should be something you pay for.
The only issue I'm having is that it ends up having an effect that doubles up text repeatedly on Chats with sellers on Etsy and Assistants on banking websites and the like, though I'm not sure why. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon ArcturusK03, vor 7 MonatenThe app works great! The only issue I've had is it absolutely breaks the website Sudowrite.com, which I use for writing. It would have a perfect score from me otherwise.

This addons will not work on any webpage that using dynamic content. Because the site will always replace the modified text with their own. Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor 8 MonatenHi,
I'm not sure about the problem. Please provide more information, for example, operating system and description about the issue.- Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Aaron Liu, vor 8 MonatenPretty solid! Mostly just works. Breaks a couple of websites though, such as basically any medium website. This extension doesn't work well with translate extensions that also use mutation observers, as the implementation divides everything into lots of separate text elements instead of continuous words with a span, so it works for a second and immediately gets translated into nonsense
(The developer originally responded to this review. I'm re-posting as I have a new feature request and I can't find any other way to contact the developer, though they do respond to every review, which is great!)
This extension also breaks many sites' math equations, such as the math stackexchange and many USACO problems. The delay method isn't sufficient as the equations take a bit longer to render. Is it possible for users to customize how long the extension delays for on all delay domains?Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor 8 MonatenHi,
I have added a quick fix for math.stackexchange.com and also an option to control delay time in version 1.6.25. You may want to view the website first to see if the problem still persist before adding it into delay list.
Because each website has its own way of implementing math equations, I can only make a quick fix instead of creating a universal solution. For that reason, other websites may still display math equations incorrectly. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Firefox-Benutzer 13294957, vor einem Jahr2 things. Can you please add a feature so that in firefox it ONLY works while on "reader view"https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-reader-view-clutter-free-web-pages ?
the other thing, it breaks some pages like web whatsapp, but I haven't been able to figure out the blacklist vs whitelist in the extension. Can you add tab menu options for "add to whitelist, and/or add to blacklist? thank you.Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi,
1. Unfortunately, Firefox does not support running extension in Reader mode.
2. To use whitelist/blacklist, you MUST click on "ALL" button to turn it off first. Something like "do not apply to all sites any more" :).
The whitelist is: General -> Domains
The blacklist is: Advanced -> Blacklist Domains.
You can edit content of the textbox directly (add/remove) and then click on SAVE button. The extension will extract domain name from the address and save it for you.
Shortcut key to add to whitelist: CTRL+ALT++ or CTRL+ALT+=
Shortcut key to add to blacklist: CTRL+ALT+- or CTRL+ALT+_ - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Isaac Aaron, vor einem JahrVery simple to use, just install and enjoy. Supports Hebrew almost out of the box, I had to add some vowels.
I wish I could apply a blacklist or a whitelist saying something like "do not apply for LAN (192.168.*) addresses. I really like the hotkey the allows disabling for the current site.
Perhaps if used in conjunction with containers? - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon D. Schaaaf, vor einem JahrPretty good and useful add on. Unfortunately, it clashes with Dark Reader. It would be great if this add on would have a positive list (white list) instead of, or in addition to, a negative list (black list). I'd like this add on to only be active on chosen sites.
Edit: A separate negative/positive list for the "DARK" mode alone would be helpful.
Interference with Dark Reader: I can't have Dark Reader disabled for domain XY, and Bionic Reader with "DARK" mode enabled _only_ on domain XY. As soon as "DARK" mode is enabled in Bionic Reader, it applies to _all_ domains (except for the domains on the negative list). "THIS SITE" only works for "Bionic Reading style" but not for "DARK" mode.
Hotkeys are an option. Unfortunately most programs come with their own set of hotkeys. Sometimes they interfere with each other, other times there are simply too many hotkeys to remember. Bad memory might be more common among people who benefit from "Bionic Reading style" ;-)Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi,
Could you please give me more detail about the confliction with Dark Reader? I can run them together with no issue. If you only need a simple dark mode, you can click on "DARK" button on the Options menu and configure the settings to your liking (Overlay Opacity or Dark Theme).
To use while list, you need to turn off the "ALL" button first. Then, open your favorite site and click on "THIS SITE" in the Options menu. This will add the selected site to the domain list right below.
To add any site to black list, you can paste the link of that website to "Blacklist Domains" under "Advanced" tab in the Options menu.
However, I prefer to use the shortcut key to enable/disable this extension instead of using white list or black list. For example, you can press CTRL+ALT+0 to quickly toggle ON/OFF this extension. For a full list of hotkeys, please check the "Shortcuts" tab in the Options menu. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Olivia, vor einem JahrWorks great, when it does work.
On some pages, every time you hover over a button, the words on the button get duplicated. So "Done" becomes "DoneDoneDoneDoneDone" and the buttons get bigger every time your cursor hovers over. I saw this in the checkout cart of overstock.com, the mario kart live racer ID creation webpage (while making an ID here: https://mklive.nintendo.com/racer-id/ ) and a few other pages. Had to disable it sadly, then those pages worked like normal.Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi,
It sems that the website is tracking your mouse movement on the button (may be to learn your shopping behavior/how you decide to buy things,...). When It sees change on the text, it will add the original text again. The extension will see that change and apply styling to the new text. This procedure will keep repeating again and again. As a result, you will see "buttonbuttonbutton"....
Unfortunately, whenever I visit "overstock.com", I always get error: "An appropriate representation of the requested resource / could not be found on this server". For that reason, I couldn't make further investigation on that page.
As for now, you can try the following:
- Add "overstock.com" to blacklist.
- Use keyboard shortcuts to disable/enable the extension.
- Turn off ALL button and use Ctrl+Alt+B to manually enable styling for a webpage. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Saiga, vor einem JahrTool is great, but would be much better if you were able to add rules for words of n length or in a length range. I'd personally prefer to have anything 2 or 3 letters or less fully bold, but I can't do that with the current settings and having the tool useful for its intended purpose, so I had to settle for them being skipped.

geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi,
That's a nice suggestion :).
I have added that feature in the latest version (1.6.19+).
You can try it by modifying the value of "Emphasis" options in the extension menu. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Firefox-Benutzer 17832691, vor einem JahrIts very nice extension but i found a bug which was hard to find and really annoying. When you access facebook site and click see more.. option it autocloses post and u practically can't find it anymore. It happens on every post when you click see more.
For weeks I thought there was some bug in facebook cache and spent lot of time googling but it ended to be an issue with this extension. I added facebook as blacklisted domain and it fixed it. That is sole reason for downgrading my rating. Beside that its nice extension. Also, UI is kinda non intuitive for basic users.
Edit, i just found that there is dark mode support so i will give it 4 instead of 3 because that is niceAntwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi,
Thank for reporting the bug :)! I have added "facebook.com" to the blacklist on default settings in latest version.
After investigating the problem for a while, I have detected that Facebook has a script running on the background and check for content of webpage.
When you click on "See more...", the script will remove "See more..." and add more text. However, because the extension replaces "See more..." with formatted text (something like "See more..."), it is no longer considered as the original element. The script on Facebook will try to remove the formatted text and complain that the text is modified, then trigger an error and remove the post.
Furthermore, I have detected that Facebook has some other scripts running on the background to check for the consistency of the webpage and try to warn user or take action if the webpage is modified too much (in fear of user getting h.a.c.k, may be...).
So, the best solution for this issue is adding Facebook.com to the blacklist, instead of providing a special fix for this case.
As I answered in other comment, this extension is 100% safe. You can easily view the source code by downloading the extension to your PC (XPI file) and then extract like a ZIP file.

About the dark mode, It is not perfect because I'm using a general algorithm for all websites, instead of adding special fix for any particular one. So, you may see some websites with weird background. I just wish we could access the remote CSS file like before, dark mode will be a lot more easier and accurate, no more looping through all HTML elements to background color. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon Firefox-Benutzer 17824119, vor einem Jahri really like the plugin, it works fine for me on anysites, i cant get it to work on pdfs tho, is that just not an option or is it something i dont know how to activate?
Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi!
Unfortunately, this extension is for HTML only.
Because the text of a PDF document is rendered on a HTML canvas, we cannot simply restyle it like HTML.
I'm thinking about a solution for now and may add something new to support PDF in the future. - Bewertet mit 4 von 5 Sternenvon cdo, vor einem JahrHi! Love the addon, thanks so much for your work in creating and sharing it—has been a huge help.
The addon works pretty efficiently for me, I just have some concerns about permissions—do you have any kind of privacy policy? Granting access to all site data is a big ask, want to make sure nothing is being collected beyond what's necessary for the addon to function. Thanks!Antwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor einem JahrHi, happy to hear that!
About privacy, this extension collects NOTHING at all.
I defined them as follow in the manifest.json:
"permissions":
[
"storage",
"tabs"
]
1. Storage: To save settings of this extension (this may trigger the permission to access all data. However, only settings of this extension is accessed)
2. Tabs: To reload tabs when settings changes (i.e click on Apply button, check URL to blacklist websites,...).
I just follow the tutorial on Mozilla website.
(https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Implement_a_settings_page)
Furthermore, you can view the source code of this extension to make sure that everything is safe.

Not only does it seem fairly arbitrary when it works and when not (i guess its based on the length? it's super weird when you for example view wikipedia and it completely ignores some shorter paragraphs), but it also breaks certain websites.
this is especially the case when a textarea element is defined with preset text within the body of the textarea element - the extension simply clears the textarea element of its contents in that caseAntwort des Entwicklers
geschrieben am vor 2 Jahren1. It's fine for 1 star or whatever. I made this extension to read books and articals on the internet easier. Just want to share with other people who need it, just like me.
2. You can adjust "Skip Text" and "Skip Words" in the options to your liking. Set them to lowest values will apply styling for all text. Please read the "Help" tab for more information.
If you don't mind, please post links to those websites here, so I can make further investigation.
This extension will simply replace a normal text with a block of text. It will not break any web page, unless there are some scripts running on the background to check the content and modify them again. For example, duckduckgo.com will track your mouse movement and keep replacing the text in the search result if you modify them.
3. I added TEXTAREA to the ignore list in the latest version (1.6.1+). Hope this will fix the issue in your case.
