- Rated 1 out of 5by Maza, 2 years agoRUBBISH! I'm trying to have an online course read out and it's stuck on the main page! Don't know how to unstick it and move it to read the page I'm physically looking at!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Ricardo, 2 years agoThe (English) voice is very robotic and ugly. I don't know bau this is related with Firefox. The same extension works fine with beautiful and natural voices in Chrome.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12482743, 3 years agoIt was great at first but then whatever trial period there was on the premium voices ran out and after spending way, way too long trying to figure out how to purchase access to those voices I gave up and used Zira. Then today after using it for a couple of weeks it went buggy. The stop button and the forward and back buttons stopped working and the reading speed seemed to be off. Even closing the tab wouldn't stop it from reading. Finally had to turn it off in Firefox settings and just went ahead and uninstalled it. While looking for a way to get the better voices I found out FF already has a built in TTS.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12966345, 3 years agoThere's no option to read selected text. It only reads the ENTIRE web page which is useless.

- Rated 1 out of 5by hawk999, 3 years agoI loved using this but now i guess there has been an update and i cant use the TTS voice i have on my PC anymore, When i first started using this there was an option to use the voice i had on my PC now that option is gone, I hate all these voices... Let me use the TTS voice i have.

posted 3 years agoHi there, a recent Windows update has disappeared all SAPI voices from all browsers, not just Firefox. This affects not only Read Aloud but any addons or website cannot access your SAPI voices. Unfortunately we have found no workaround to this issue at this time. - Rated 1 out of 5by mmm111111111, 3 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Ty, 3 years agoIt works fine but it could be better. My only issue is that it doesn't read some math symbols properly, which is the main reason I installed this extension.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Hugo, 3 years agoVery computer-like voices and not much better than the built-in TTS feature which is built into Firefox.
