Web reader mode

[thejuice]

This is an accessibility issue, most websites might as well be in Chinese!

Are there any *android* browsers with a reader mode? I have something similar to dyslexia. Something to make websites easier to read and perhaps a Text to Speech option

I've had a look at ad block plus premium which does a web reader. ABP's Trust pilot score is poor so will give it a miss and it's quite an annoying browser anyway.

Have you tried Firefox? It has a nice, clean reader view with text to speech option.

Trying to find reader mode on Firefox android..

 

[thejuice]

Downloaded dark reader extension, completely bamboozled. Mobile browsers have a long way to go in accessibility terms.

Oh I found reader mode, i take it back. Was about to meltdown. I didn't give up hooray *pat on back*

me: 1 learned helplessness: 0

Dark reader mode extension, still no idea. Could be an equaliser for learned helplessness

I'm thinking it's not compatible with android

 

[thejuice]

Huh. It just randomly started working when I clicked on it for the 20th time. Win.

Dark reader extension is not compatible with Firefox reader mode. Strewth!

 

[thejuice]

You need to download extension after extension and probably rip privacy

Downloaded ANOTHER dark reader to fix that problem. Imagine having a functional browser out of the box?!

Advice welcome.

Ditch the phone and buy a computer. Phones suck.

@thejuice
Firefox for mobile should have a built-in “night mode“ setting.

On a PC, I use this extension and it works with the reader view:
