- Rated 1 out of 5by Taner KARAGÖL, 2 years agoVoice is very bad (very robotic). Difficult to understand.
Few weeks ago I guess I have tried old version and voice was very good. But now it is very bad compared to one I tried before. - Rated 1 out of 5by hortond00, 2 years agoEven basic functionality is completely broken. After skipping text, the stop button breaks and audio will continue playing. Skipping text also causes the wrong set of text to highlight relative to the audio that's playing. I don't think Firefox should recommend this extension until these issues are fixed.
I will happily retry it if I am notified that these issues get handled, but for now, don't waste your time - Rated 1 out of 5by sungiraturuh, 2 years agoThe voices are total trash. You will damage your ears by listening to the voices. Unusable. 0/10.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12816473, 2 years agoToo many flaws that makes your lisatening experience excrutiatingly painful. if you want to move back and listen to a paragraph over, it will NOT accomodate your request. it will NOT highlight the text that it is reading if you want to jump back or forward. Basically a useless app that will only frusatrate you.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14409076, 2 years agoIt doesn't work. No sound. Does not read aloud. No help to sort out and make it work.

- Rated 1 out of 5by mcalhoun, 2 years agoI just downloaded "read-aloud". I got it to read a webpage but could NOT get it to stop. I want to try some other voices but can NOT determine how. Where do I look to find instructions?
- Rated 1 out of 5by MOMO, 2 years agoEverything was excellent after they decided to charge for "Premium" voices.
- Rated 1 out of 5by MathisBRogers, 2 years agoIt worked great until last week, then it stopped working correctly.
I love being able to highlight a paragraph or more, right click, then hit Read Aloud and it reads the selected text to me. Around Wednesday, October 19, 2022, I selected the text I wanted it to read and right clicked, and the option was gone.
I went to Settings and I do still have Read Aloud turned on and the icon is in the toolbar, but if I click on the icon on this page, it says "Missing host permission for the tab." I click the gear icon, and it has everything set correctly. If I select the text I want it to read and hit alt-p it starts reading, but stops before the end of the selection.
Please set it back to the way it was. - Rated 1 out of 5by Renadam12, 2 years agoNope. Nope nope nope to the tenth power--nope. I figure if you create and app or extension...it should work. Nothing but an empty box and a spinning wheel loads. Says it's pulling content--clearly cannot. That is sort of the point of the thing, isn't it? So.. nope.

nowhere is there useful information as how to fix or even what this is.
trash. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16613965, 2 years agoOnce it starts reading out loud, I can't stop it without closing the browser. Stop button does nothing 🧐

- Rated 1 out of 5by hellwraiz, 2 years agopretty much none of the buttons do what they are supposed to. And clicking on any part of the text actually does nothing.
