Browser Reader for Chrome lets your eyes rest and have your ears do the Reading for you; by speaking the text you want aloud from the Chrome Browser using Voice.

This FRIENDLY app is aimed both at basic users who are not familiar with technology, as well as advanced users who just want to perform this task in a very simple manner.


It's as SIMPLE as 1, 2, 3:
1. Open Google Chrome Browser.
2. Copy any text from the webpage.
3. Put your device down and listen.


TIP: Shake device to stop the voice reading and save it as audio content.


TIP:
Once you highlight the text you can also press the 'select all' button which is left to the 'cut', 'copy' & 'paste' buttons and then copy the text to read the whole webpage!
It works great for saving pages for offline voice reading.


DISCLAIMER:
Browser Reader for Chrome was built on an actual android device AND have been tested on many android devices in order to reach maximum compatibility all over the world for people in need for this productive & Educational app!
No android emulators were used in the making of Browser Reader for Chrome.


Negative feedback will not resolve your issue; Communication will!





Educational use:
According to many reports by users, Browser Reader for Chrome actually helped them with Pronunciation, Reading and even Focusing on Listening as you can have the voice reading along with you just like in class with a teacher.


(The speech recognition used will be the default on your android device including the language selected)


Enjoy!

Once you copy the text and its start reading it out loud Chrome Reader starts to monitor the accelometer; once you shake the phone to stop reading it also stops monitoring the accelometer so this app does not consume battery!

haha love the idea and the simplicity of this !!

I copy the text I want to show the person im with and then hand him the phone and he just listens to it; people aren't excited to read something when you show them.

thank you.

I have a feeling this will get picked up by Google officially. I just paid for it. I have always wanted something that will read web pages and here we are

Very nice app this one, great work :good:
Is it possible to have multi language support? I mean to choose which language should be read? For example: I have my phone language set to English but for the most part I read articles in Finnish or Swedish. Or would I have to change the phone's default language every time I want to have something read in another language? :confused:

Keep up the good work!

Kudos¡

Cool beans bro¡ Working just fine on Nexus 7(2012) 4.4.2, this reminds me of an old school program I used to have on my old Win ME desktop. It was called "Cool Speech", it pretty much did the same thing, just with any copied text. This is awesome and loving it, been looking for an app like this for quite some time. Thx¡!

    Apk published here on main post!

    I happen to try that particular one out but I have found that the stock ones and ivona, the speed settings have no affect when changing them. Also I noticed that ivona left behind a irritating sound file that played whenever I received a text saying it was "ivona, a beautiful new tts system" or something like that and also when I switched back to Google tts it played that same message after the Google voice would read a paragraph I chose. I still haven't found a way to get rid of it but I use multi rom so I just reflashed my rom.

    Possibly your ROM is defined with a faster tempo and higher pitch than android's default.
