- Rated 5 out of 5by Meluvius, 7 days agonot sure why everyones rating this so low. it literally works so smoothly and if you use chatgpt a lot the voice is familiar obviously bc its the chatgpt voice. not much else to say. if i were to be really picky id wanna see a feature to have it play in the same tab without opening a new tab when you select it from the right click panel but hey it works its smooth and its free so i love it
- Rated 5 out of 5by Hade Han, 2 months agoNot sure why people keep giving this a low rating, the text to speech is completely free as stated. The downloads are supported up to 2500 characters so its not the worst, you can always upgrade if you need more.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Patrice, 2 months agoEDIT 2: I was just searching for another type of add-on and saw this one was at 3.9 stars in the list... And this has more bad consequences that we could think.
So I did increase the number stars because I think, even if I don't agree with the different changes, no-one deserves to be below 4 stars when they care about their app, especially when the developer is taking care to answer people, or explain why things are changing.
END- EDIT2
A lot has changed in 2 weeks, now it's partly a pay add-on for some voice.
The developer want to change the "free" voice every 2 weeks, thus everything I did with the voice I did use, will be like throwing all to the trash... it does not make sense to have multiple different voice for my chapters...
In just 2 weeks the developer change too much things, inconsistency... makes this add-on unreliable, something you cannot count on it, that's sad.
Now I see it as a bait, and I don't like to be baited.
But in the end, it did force me to find a better solution > kokorodoki on github, it has a GPL V3 license, truly free, no internet needed and it's a very good TTS, even better than this addon, and once you have chosen a voice you keep it, not like this add-on...
Original review:
Perfect!
Easy to use, copy/paste or drag and drop your text.
The voice is nice and very "expressive" like a human.
Thank you developer.Developer response
posted 2 months agoSo a couple of things here:
1- The free version has all of the voices and also has all the core features including downloading and listening audio, i made sure to add the subscription feature in a way such that the extension is still usable for free users.
2- I have been spent hours (months even) on this project and kept it free. Due to my personal situation, I wanted to get support, i don't think that's a crime?
3- Any good developer is not afraid to ship things and then change them based off of user feedback, i knew there was going to be push back, but that doesn't mean i'll just stay quiet :)
4- If u want the entire extension that bad you can always just take a few weeks/months to code up a similar extension
