- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14773307, 5 years agoI want to love this but it's annoying to use and very buggy. The highlighting and auto scrolling is nice when it's working. You can't easily start at a spot on the page and have it keep reading. if you select an area...that's all it will read until you reset it and select another area. The bugs make it unusable though. It tries to read two sections at a time alternating sentences between where you've advanced to and...somewhere else. On a site I'm using for school, it finds the first page in a chapter (not the one I'm on) and starts reading that. I don't know where it pulls the info from but it's really bizarre.

posted 5 years agoHi, the app is still in it's infancy so there are still some bugs to be fixed & needed features - however, if more people would be reporting the bugs (via website), or what they want, in more detailed manner, that would be more helpful. It also helps to force update the extension in the browser settings, some bugs may be already fixed since I'm doing alot of patches lately.
