Great extension! Not only does it read any webpage open in the Chrome browser, it also works great in Canvas (learning management system). It can even read pdf files put in Canvas! This will help so many special ed & ESL learners. |

I was curious about using Immersive Reader to read Google Mail and came across this highly rated 'unofficial' Chrome extension. I have a correspondent who sends large blocks of text in their emails and for this reason, I have avoided reading them in a timely manner. Installed this extension, highlighted the text of the email, and instantly I have a more 'readable' email to work with. And when I say 'readable', Immersive Reader can literally read your text in a very precise and clear voice (female or male) that is astounding! I can't wait to try it for an extended period of time to read all my emails, long and short. And it works on all your documents within your Chrome Browser not just Google Docs or Gmail. Just hightlight the text you want read and then right click. |

It would be nice if the immersive reader remembered the settings: it resets back to the default every time so I always have to change voice or background color |

I love this app for supporting my ELLs - so much functionality that can help them process and understand the web better. One thing I wish is that it worked inside Google Docs, so I could have students analyze texts that I provide or customize for them. That would get 6 stars - for now, this app will have to settle for 5. |

If work in a classroom you should check this extension out. Also, check out using Office Lens to convert paper documents to immersive reader format. There are apps for android and IOS. Both offer additional options you may find useful for supporting students with weak reading skills. |

Thank you so much for this extension! It will be a great addition to our UDL toolbox. I know it works on websites but, since it using the Chrome context menus, it doesn't work inside of G Suite apps (that I can tell) unless the file is published to the web. Any chance you might investigate how to add it to the context menus inside the G Suite apps? :-) |
