This used to work really well with Kindle Cloud Reader (and I didn't mind paying for it), but now it does not work with the site at all. There are no updates from the developer to suggest if or when this will be fixed - the website linked in the extension download page doesn't work, and the Github page has not been updated it seems in 2 years. I was still being billed so I unsubscribed on Paypal.

COMPLETE bait & switch offering! I installed this extension from the Opera Extension offerings for TTS readers. It was the first one that came up. I started using it with an eBook reader online and got 13% through the book when up popped the paywall demanding $4.99 to continue. I went to the "DETAILS" page of the installed extension and there was NO mention that this was a trial. Further, the paywall that pops up does NOT say who's asking to be paid. I first though it was the eBook site, but ... Show more

I actually found this extension to be very useful reading an ebook on Overdrive for me. It would have been nice if I could have used it on my mobile device and not only on my lap top, but I did find it useful and of good quality overall. I only rated 2 stars though because I am highly dissatisfied with how hard it is to figure out how to cancel your subscription. I shouldn't have to waste hours of my time trying to cancel a subscription I am not using anymore. There is no information on how t... Show more

Works for the most part. I'm a paid subscriber. Every few pages it seems to inexplicably skip the end of the sentence or paragraph and suddenly I'm starting a new sentence where the previous one was not completed. It's disorienting and someone should look at this as a bug. Please help. Latest Chrome on Windows 10.

As a low vision individual, text to speech is something absolutely necessary for me. Without TTS Ebook Reader I would be unable to use either scribd or overdrive. These services offer low (or no) cost ebooks but are simply not accessible for those with vision issues. Therefore, this extension has been simply wonderful. Yes it is not free (4.99 a month) but for me this cost is worth it because as a bibliophile I can now access ebooks that were not available before. There is frankly no oth... Show more

A very dishonest business model when a company displays no information about a "suscription service" or a "free preview" until you run out and all of a sudden, what's perceived as a free resources has a paywall. This is why setting expectations is so important on the front end. I've really enjoyed the product, but definitely not pleased by the surprise. Feels like I'm experiencing "foot in the door" behavior that wants to rope me in. This would be a simple fix for TTS Reader, whatever their i... Show more

It's pretty disgusting how much time companies like this spend on trying to get paid and how little time they spend on making sure that you get what you pay for. Of course I used the product for a few pages and this free product popped up that I have to pay $5 a month or $60 a year which is a lot for one little app so I decided to pay the money and the way it popped up with stupid PayPal it looked like there's no way it's going to tie my payment to the product. Of course that's exactly w... Show more
