- Rated 3 out of 5by Martina, 3 days agoUsed to work great, I do not mind robotic voices as long as my eyes get a rest. But last few days it is barely usable, it is not reading paragraph I click on, but it reads everything from the start, or does reads whole paragraphs on every section I click. It used to skip immediately where I wanted. It does not stop when I click stop, nor pause. It highlights different sections than it reads. Removing and adding the add on again did not hep. On average, I rate 3 stars due to previous good experience, but it is no longer usable for me.

- Rated 3 out of 5by k0ns0l, 15 days agoIt appears I can no longer install a custom voice :/
Activity log is showing "TypeError: Error in input stream" even after a 100% install status. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18740215, 17 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Jonsmon, a month agoThis addon works quite well on my PC.
For those complaining about the robotic sounding voice... Try switching to "GoogleTranslate English" voice or one of Google's other voices. - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18418147, a month agoIt's gotten worse. It still works, but it randomly stops sometimes then you only have to start over at the top of the text. It used to be able to read things to me in the background but it only does that for a few paragraphs and then stops again. Basically, it's buggy and used to work better.
- Rated 4 out of 5by forrest phantom, a month agovery much impressed by its detection of language and pronunciation.
