About this extension

Reads web pages aloud with word highlighting

Read the publisher’s full description

The Read Aloud extension reads text from web pages using text-to-speech (TTS) while highlighting words as they are spoken, ensuring better readability and engagement. It utilizes `range.getBoundingClientRect()` for precise word positioning and starts reading from the top of the page by default, but users can also start from a selected word. Instead of using popups, all interactions occur directly on the webpage, with a top bar providing controls for play, pause, and settings. Users can customize reading speed, pitch, and voice selection, with preferences stored for future use, making it a seamless and intuitive tool for consuming online content.
