Read The Web

As a professional in higher ed who trains students to use the Read the Web extension it's been a grade saver for many of my students. There are some things that I wish it did better, like adjust to a smaller screen size so you can see the whole settings menu, and I wish it would actually save people's user name/password so they could log out when they didn't want it to be on all the time. Overall, though, it's more user friendly for most of my students than Read/Write, and it works on Edge a... Show more

Works great, unsure why it doesn't work for some people. I would say it's a hit or a miss. Useful for school, to be able to read when I have problems focusing.

is app really help me with school

was working for like a day and now just has a red line across and get it to work

I wish I could give zero stars. Doesn't work.

It's not working at all for me.

It's still as buggy as it's been for a while now. It's rather helpful sometimes, but it sometimes interferes with other extensions and programs, especially Google Docs (when I'm not even trying to use Kurzweil!) I can look past the way it mispronounces things because I'm sighted and can read what it's reading, but I can imagine that being a big problem for people with vision issues.

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 t... Show more
