- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch MathisBRogers, 3 jierren lynIt worked great until last week, then it stopped working correctly.
I love being able to highlight a paragraph or more, right click, then hit Read Aloud and it reads the selected text to me. Around Wednesday, October 19, 2022, I selected the text I wanted it to read and right clicked, and the option was gone.
I went to Settings and I do still have Read Aloud turned on and the icon is in the toolbar, but if I click on the icon on this page, it says "Missing host permission for the tab." I click the gear icon, and it has everything set correctly. If I select the text I want it to read and hit alt-p it starts reading, but stops before the end of the selection.
Please set it back to the way it was. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Drago, 3 jierren lynEra semplicemente perfetto. Ora si blocca durante la lettura.
- Wurdearring: 2 fan 5troch Wally, 3 jierren lynUsed to be great, but now limits the amount it will read to a very small amount of text. There are better alternatives without limits out there.
- Wurdearring: 3 fan 5troch Toni, 3 jierren lynWorked beautiful for months, now choppy. Will start reading and then stop. Tried everything to correct, updated my browser, reinstalled the addon...same result. Disappointed, need to stop wasting my time and install another tool.
Edit - tried other text to speech apps available thru firefox, they were awful. Back and hoping the issue will disappear. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Renadam12, 3 jierren lynNope. Nope nope nope to the tenth power--nope. I figure if you create and app or extension...it should work. Nothing but an empty box and a spinning wheel loads. Says it's pulling content--clearly cannot. That is sort of the point of the thing, isn't it? So.. nope. EDIT: UPDATE: 2 years later, still a nope. Still not working.
- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch EnergyMover, 3 jierren lynUsed to be great. It severely limits the text length & can no longer right click & select speak. I found a better one, TTSFox, which in options lets me do everything I need.

nowhere is there useful information as how to fix or even what this is.

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch hellwraiz, 4 jierren lynpretty much none of the buttons do what they are supposed to. And clicking on any part of the text actually does nothing.
- Wurdearring: 2 fan 5troch Ashley, 4 jierren lynWas deciding between 2 or 3 stars since it does *technically* do the job, but there are so many glitches that I often just end up reading the page aloud to myself.
Issues:
- Difficulties starting and stopping (voice starts reading the page over again OR it jumps to the end of the page)
- Needs more flexibility; cannot highlight anywhere onscreen to be read; almost seems like the bot just chooses what you hear
- Skips ahead on page and misses text
-Forward or back buttons do not work consistently (so that's all of the buttons)
- Bot voice is terrifyingly annoying (or annoyingly terrifying) - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch lubusta, 4 jierren lynMost excellent addon. Thanks for the nice work. How about adding a simple button to maximize the separate reading window?
