Reviews of read the web:
The app is supposed to work with the Kurzweill 3000 and at first I liked it but there are so many issues with this app. I hve to uninstall when i am finished using it and everytime I need the screen to read for me it glitches.
At first, I really liked the extension. It was working for me. A couple of months ago, though, it started acting up. It will glitch when I enable the extension, not allowing me to press any of the buttons, so I can't make it read. If the buttons do work, sometimes it reads, other times it just highlights text and doesn't move the cursor from there. The Kurzweil cursor also randomly appears even though the extension is disabled.
I didn't download this extension, my school did. The login thing just popped up on my school account a few days ago, and it is so damn annoying. I saw someone complaining about this years ago, how come they still haven't fixed it yet? I don't need this, but I can't remove it because my account is managed by the school. All I can do is move it to the less prominent upper left corner... And yes, I can't comment with my school account. I downloaded this extension using my personal account just to comment because of how much I hate it. I need help to remove this extension, google is not helpful at all.
