Reviews & Comments of Text to Speech chrome extension

UPDATED: 26 March 2023 I like its simple control panel, and its ability to start reading any paragraph with just a single click of the mouse, but the pause/play button doesn't respond well at times, and it sometimes skips reading some paragraphs. Furthermore, unlike most other text-to-speech extensions, there is no option to read selected text via right click context menu. The extension also lacks an "Options/Settings" that provides, for example, a choice to change the colour for text (paragraph) highlighting from the current glaring bright yellow.

Simple, lightweight, but only works sometimes. It's skips paragraphs with no way to intervene and focus on text that was skipped over. Was using read aloud which was very good but recent updates made it buggy and unusable. I installed this and it works ok but has issues

I click on the extension and nothing happens...nothing popped up. After trying several times i tried other pages then worked. There are other apps that give you more options of English voices and features.

Won't work on the website for my textbook, which is the only thing I needed it for. Tried everything the other reviews said to do for it to work if it didn't and to no avail. Disappointed.

I'm not impressed by the three Microsoft voices you have to choose from

it works much better than other text to speech extensions!

Could not get it to read my school academic papers.

Took me to an external website and wouldn't read the text I needed it to.

Difficult to use, I could not find where to click to make it start reading a page

It was COMPLETELY useless for using it on the page it doesn't work as good as all the reviews say its not a real TTS if you can't do it on everything i don't recommend this to anyone using this for anything other then news.

It cant read on the web page, you have to manually link it into it's program. the voice is cool tho

it will not let me convert somethings into the app. i also did this to mess up perfect 5 stars

I have to do a lot of reading for work. This extension has been so wonderful at keeping me on top of my schedule as I can take my readings on the go now. I absolutely love this extension. Super easy to use super useful!

What an amazing extension. I didn't know I needed it until I tried it. I love the simplicity of adding an article and you pick up where you left off.

Keeping up with current events got a lot easier.

well done. :)

very helpful and easy to use. Thank you.

This is Awesome.

I love this. It filters out all the stuff I don't need and reads the actual news. I recommend this app to anyone especially if you drive a lot like me.

Finally an extension that I like. I have a fairly long commute to and from work and want to reduce to reduce my screen time. This application lets me listen to the articles on the train like a podcast. The best part is it doesn't sound like an robot, and gives me the option to change the settings of the voice.

This is like podcast for articles?. Your articles read out loud with a human voice. I'm quite surprised how human it the voice sounds. Well done!!

Finally an extension that gets it right by getting rid of ads and just reads what's important. Unlike all the other text to speech apps and extensions, it also doesn't sound like a total robot. It actually sounds pretty natural. Highly recommended this for your daily commute.

I been waiting for an App to the point and easy to use. By far this is the best extension I have ever tried! Thank you Developer!

I'm surprised how well this works. The mobile integration is really good too, on par with listening to a podcast. Highly recommend!

I've tried other apps with similar purpose, but Hewizo is by far the best!

The extension I've been waiting for is finally here!

Very cool extension! I love that it doesn't need any permissions to work
