Speak

not working

Good extension, it does what annouced. It is the best one which I've tested till now. I like its English speaking. The longest article which I had tested lasted over 20 min. and worked OK. I APPRECIATE the possibility to preset speed, pitch and volume. It can read even OFFline PDF files opened in Chrome. I MISS the button "Stop" and my native language - Czech. I WOULD LIKE to have the possibility to start speaking from specific word/ sentence without the need to copy the whole article/ chap... Show more

It has 5 stars if it allows Right Click and speak only. I don't want both options on "When Text is selected": Speak or Show Speak Button. They are too annoyed, cover the text or noisy.

It seems to be the free option. It works perfectly with the installed voices, but for the other voices, which I assume work by shipping data through the net, only very short quotes will be read.

Good one! Improve the icon will be better

Great. And github open source code make it extensible and trustworthy.

Pretty simple to use. it would be great if it had a pause button

Downloaded to read my Google docs aloud but I couldn't figure out how to get it to read the highlighted text. It isn't what I was looking for but I would be happy to download it again if it had the capability to do what I need.

The best one!!! Work very fine!!

Worked for a while (a few days) but the SPEAK icon was always very intrusive. But after attempting to change the behavior (trying another option), it never worked again. Now, it just seems to speak parts of text (randomly) and the configurations no longer seem to work. :( Ideally, speech should be initiated via right-click text selection or by selecting text and clicking the speak button from the menu. Such options are not currently available. Since it is no longer working, I must remove it.
