Review by Firefox user 12148978
Rated 3 out of 5
by Firefox user 12148978, a year agoI've identified one significant problem using this add-on. That problem is that this add-on opens in a new window. It should simply open in a new tab, if it has to open a new anything at all. When an add-on opens a new window, if the user closes out the prior window with all his tabs, leaving the read aloud window open, it risks the danger of the user's prior session being wiped out, with all his tabs going with it, and when the user invokes Firefox again, all he gets is the window opened by read aloud. Unfortunately, my experience is that add-ons which claim to record and purportedly allow the reloading of prior sessions, meaning a set of tabs, simply do not work reliably when a new window has been opened.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Vich, 18 hours agoAsks me to grant additional permissions every half 15 minutes. It is a waste of time and a terrible distraction.
Got to new page, click few buttons, come back and then reload your page. REALLY??? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18273814, a day ago

it just simply ridiculous guys. Is this a joke or somehting? It's probably my fault, but this sounds 10 times worse as stephen hawking. Or maybe like one of Edison's first phonograph recordings Mawawary hawawad alala liwiwiwttle lawawawam. Come on.. - Rated 1 out of 5by honza1616, 11 days agoIn my language (Czech), it's like listening to a robot. Try the Edge browser, it has the reader already installed and it's perfect.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Fulmer, 13 days agoEvery time I start it, it wants me to grant additional permissions. Additional? I gave it the permissions it needed when I ran it the first time so why do I have to give it additional permissions every day I run it? I want it to be given all the permissions it needs to run and make that permanent. Instead, you have to go through a tedious rigmerole of opening a webpage, scrolling down and clicking on a speak button, then tick a box saying you are not a robot EVERY TIME you use it! No! I won't do that.

- Rated 3 out of 5by big boom, 21 days agoI've noticed an issue with the way the Google Translate Bengali voice feature pronounces numerical values in English. Specifically, when the Bengali voice reads out English phrases containing numbers, the pronunciation of those numerical values is inaccurate.
For example, when the Bengali voice reads '24 hours', it pronounces it as 'chabbish (২৪) hours', where 'chabbish' is the direct Bengali pronunciation of the number '24', rather than the proper English pronunciation.
This problem seems to occur consistently across all numerical values when using the Google Translate Bengali voice. I was hoping you could provide guidance on how this numerical pronunciation accuracy could be improved within the Bengali voice feature. Having the Bengali voice deliver the correct English pronunciations for numbers would greatly help me. - Rated 5 out of 5by jjpatricio, 22 days ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by sfny, a month agoConstantly asking to change permissions on Android. It became so annoying I had to remove it altogether.
