Immersive Reader - Improve Reading Accessibility

Works perfectly. Hope it could read the whole page without selecting. thank you so much for this x

I like this but it doesn't help when my students need to read Google Slides.

Update: This now seems to be behind a paywall. Previously: Thank you! There was a previous extension from someone else that was not working anymore so I was so grateful to find yours. Well done!

Hi, The extension utilizes the Microsoft Immersive Reader API behind the scenes, which incurs charges based on the number of characters processed. Recently, I notice a significant increase in the extension's usage, which has made the costs unsustainable for me to cover alone. So I have to charge a fee to cover the costs of the official APIs.

Thank you so much for the app. It really helps someone who is learning a foreign language.

Loved this extension until yesterday when I repeatedly started getting a 'Fetch Error'. Not sure how to resolve this!

Hi James, Have you installed any extensions that block network requests? Occasionally, antivirus software may mistakenly block valid queries.

This is so useful for language learners. Thank you developer!

Glad to hear that! Thanks for your support, Alex!

extremely natural voice for a free extension. it would be nice if it has an option to read the page instantly like Read Aloud (also an extension), which would help more than making you select the text when you have to do research on long text. I hope you will consider this for an update :)

Automatically selecting the appropriate section of a page to read aloud is a difficult task that varies from page to page. Any error in identifying readable text would be annoying. Furthermore, I believe this extension's main focus should not be on that. Thus, it will not be supported. I appreciate your understanding.

It's working,thank you. but I hope in the future the aurthor can make a function that this extension can read the article automatically, then the user don't have to choose the text.

It's very helpful. It works very well. Thank you so much!
