Wonderful simulation that allows you to adjust how strong the effect is e.g for cataracts, tunnel vision etc. I was very very impressed with this extension. I was even thinking of incorporating this extension in my accessibility tutorials to help build empathy. However impressive this extension is there are some bugs and room for improvement, not sure if there is a Product Owner or where to send this: 1) Allow for a smaller app window for the extension, as right now the extension tool wind...

Highly useful, but unfortunately, suffers from some bugs. In blindness mode, when tab'ing to a list, it is impossible to navigate further. If this extension received some loving care from its developer, it would be a great tool for accessibility testing.

Just installed this today. Very feature rich. I originally downloaded this for screen reader simulation, but the low-vision / no-vision features are amazing.

Excellent tool to check accessibility through simulation. I have been testing online course content using the screen reader simulation and it is working perfectly...even keyboard shortcuts which are typically used with screen readers! Thank you for an excellent product!

I can't get it to work on any website except the Silktide website. Where are the instructions?

Hey Jonathan! If you click on the "Learn more" there are help and instructions for the tool! Hope this helps! Sometimes a browser may need restarting before the extension will work, however this is not always the case as we've had few people say that they didn't need to restart their browser, so we're sorry that this is frustrating! We are also confused. We are looking into ways to detect if the browser needs restarting and to display a helpful message if necessary. Thanks for the feedback!

I don't know what the deal is but this tool would not turn on except for on the Silktide website, and when it did it wouldn't actually speak anything. It just showed me words in its little program box.
