- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14199188, 3 years agoEDIT : the reader fail on some websites with this error : "Sorry, we could not find any text on this page."
This happened on that website and some others :

It works if I select the text before hand tho, is it the intended behavior ?

Finally, I no longer have to use Edge to enjoy the immersive reader ! I'm very grateful for that.
Suggestion : atm it's a bit cumbersome to access the reader tool. Could you do something like what the Text To Speech (TTS) addon does, i.e :
Select any desired text. A play icon appears, click on it to start the voice reading.
Or maybe do what Edge does :
Select the text, then right click and click on "read aloud" in the context menu.
Anyway, thanks again for this addon, I think this will be useful to many.Developer response

Thank you for your valuable feedback and for using Helperbird over these past years. We're thrilled to hear that our immersive reader has been a game-changer for you, especially as an alternative to Edge!
Regarding the issue you faced with the reader on certain websites, we've made several updates since then. The "Sorry, we could not find any text on this page" error should now be a thing of the past. We've also streamlined the process of accessing the reader tool, making it more user-friendly and efficient, much like your suggestions.
We love hearing how we can make Helperbird better for our users. If there's anything else that comes to mind or if you want to share more insights, feel free to reach out.
