fatah Tani 2015-07-12 the auto read option is adorable well done
A Google User 2015-04-22 Funktioniert ja gar nicht
Johnny Kelley 2014-08-01 Nice extension that includes TTS, font enlargement, background color change, and language translation. Female English accent TTS sounds calm and inviting. TTS will work either by hovering over the text (must turn on "Auto Read"), or by manually selecting the text. Font enlargement works very well. Background change also works well. Translation from Spanish was a bit sketchy but helpful. All in all a great extension. I'm keeping this one.
Complex Carbivorous 2013-03-15 Very well done translation/tts extension - should be more advertised - it comes only second to "Select and Speak" and that's because it does not have an option for context menu shortcut (right-click) Has all the languages I need - French, Braz. Port. and English and much more. Any text can be simultaneously translated and spoken into your preferred language.
Rob Kendrick 2012-06-15 This worked really well. Even on Facebook with all the smiley faces and abbreviations people use.
