posted 2 years agoHello, please navigate to a webpage with a "http" URL before starting Read Aloud. The extension cannot read aloud other types of URLs. - Rated 1 out of 5by undlark, 2 years agoRunning into an issue where it won't allow me to give permission, and it is infuriating. I've spent half an hour wasting my time trying to get this sorted out, but switching off other extensions, trying Chrome, or other such options doesn't seem to work. I want to use anything other than the default voice but can't.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16474998, 2 years agoDoes not work 90% of the time because you need to keep enabling google wave net every time and for some reason it forget you've enabled it and then also after you enable it, it keeps saying enable it. Useless, Idk why it's the recommended extension.

posted 2 years agoHi, the Wavenet voices are not free and Google makes you go through that process again and again to use it for free. If you would, please sign up for a Google Cloud Platform account and use it to enable the Wavenet voices. Then you won't have to go through that permission process. Follow the general steps here: https://blog.readaloud.app/2020/05/using-your-own-google-cloud-platform.html - Rated 1 out of 5by doogong, 3 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by PT, 3 years agoTerrible. When I click to PAUSE or to STOP, it doesn't work and keeps on reading out loud from the start. I had to uninstall for it to stop speaking.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14822391, 3 years agoIt only reads the headings not the actual page content. There is no option to choose anything. DO NOT TOUCH. This is the 2nd time I have tried this on 3 different computers and 3 different accounts. I am deleting and trying something else
- Rated 1 out of 5by Salar, 3 years agoIt gets cuts off to the point that has made it useless on Firefox.
- Rated 1 out of 5by HiddenPalm, 3 years agoThis went from a 5 star to a 1 star review because of one simple thing. It now ONLY uses Google TTS. It stopped using my own TTS. I use Ivona 2 Amy (british female). It was working perfectly not to long ago, and I gave them time to fix the issue but it appears the dev has no intention of fixing it and is ok with the cheap robotic google voices.
