- Rated 5 out of 5by hArtKor, 11 days agoA wonderful extension. It does exactly what I want – it highlights text right on the page and reads it out loud, while automatically scrolling the page. No separate windows, no manual text selection, etc. Yes, of course, it only uses the built-in voices or the ones you configure in your OS, but that's enough for me.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Karma M, 7 months agoA lot of the old reviews are super old, like from years ago old, the current build of this extension is exactly what I am looking for, sometimes the highlighter does drag a bit behind, but it still does exactly what I need it too without any confusing stuff
and for that, I absolutely love it! - Rated 5 out of 5by Imota, 7 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18666967, a year agoA lot of the bad reviews are old. This does exactly what I was hoping for. Sure the voice isn't great, but it's the standard one all of them use.
Also, it has a really helpful selecting text feature. - Rated 5 out of 5by A Strange Cat, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by Swagonair, 3 years agofinally an extension that actually does what its supposed too, I have been searching for HOURS for a decent reader 10/10, I just wish the voices were better - but other than that, exactly what i wanted
- Rated 5 out of 5by colorCD, 3 years agoWorks great! I have ADHD, so reading through websites is often difficult for me. Having text read out loud to me so that I can read along (or hell, listen to it in the background) is very handy.
I think it would be great if more "reading" websites had native TTS, but that's not a reality yet, so Pericles is a great replacement :-)
(Also, for all your reading-along needs, Pericles lets you change the speed of the narrator, which is awesome.) - Rated 5 out of 5by Byron, 3 years agoWorks as expected. Clear voice, good pace, good inflection, even tries to read misspelled words the way they are spelled. Kind of funny once you realize what just happened. :-)

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15200517, 6 years agoSo far it works well, some website seem to block the extension but for a start it is pretty good and the voices are pretty understandable.
