- Rated 1 out of 5by anonymousUser, 2 years agoThis used to work the best but from past few years it sounds like shit and we can not do anything about it .....Pleaaase bring back the audio quality back..... now it sounds too robotics impossible to understand moreover the extension lags a lot.. there is no good read aloud extension out there for firefox.... in window speechify and natural reader works the best but here on firefox there's none.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14096097, 2 years agoEn español -que es la que he probado con varias voces- es infumable, apenas se entiende nada.
- Rated 1 out of 5by lynn, 2 years agoRead Aloud worked great for a few years but now it does not work. The spinner comes up and words get highlighted but that is all that happens.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16153649, 2 years agoI'm not sure how you screw up this plugin so badly. It use to work great, now it sounds terrible! I can barely understand what the robotic voice says and the best part is that you can't change it because there are about 2 million options in the drop-down and it takes 5 minutes to load after clicking on it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14519523, 2 years agoIt sounds like 2012 random robots on the internet. Terrible sound and ancient technology

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18455911, 2 years agoAll the good voices are locked behind a subscription.
The ones that are available in Edge for free...
So scam extension - Rated 1 out of 5by davood eskandary, 2 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18480144, 2 years agoWas working well under Linux until recently, when the voice started sounding like a neck box, like other reports
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18471876, 2 years agothe voice sounds like it has emphysima and is speeking through a neck box. Why?
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15773329, 2 years agoMakes it so you cant copy and paste in any other application. The voices are grating and annoying to listen to. Unfortunately I havent found anything else with a better voice. The option to change voices other then the first few dont work having you run a script that doesnt work and having you basically write your own code to make the others work.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Vich, 2 years agoAsks me to grant additional permissions every half 15 minutes. It is a waste of time and a terrible distraction.
