Overview
Simple TTS is a text-to-speech tool designed to be lightweight, private, and highly functional. It transforms any text on the web into audio using your browser's native text-to-speech engine, ensuring your data never leaves your device.
Key Features:
🎙️ Natural and Private Reading: Uses the native chrome.tts API. No intermediary servers, no API costs, and complete privacy.
👁️ 3 Display Modes:
Floating Mode: An elegant player that appears on top of the webpage.
Window (Pop-out): Separates the player into a distinct window, ideal for multitasking.
Background Mode: Listen to the text while browsing other tabs without visual distractions.
⏩ Full Control: Easily adjust the reading speed (0.5x to 2.0x), pause, resume, or restart sentences.
📝 Reading Queue: Select multiple texts and add them to the queue (right-click > "Add to queue") to listen to them one after the other.
🎨 Themes: Supports Light and Dark modes, adapting to your system.
⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts:
Alt+R: Read selection.
Alt+P: Pause/Resume.
Alt+S: Stop reading.
Why Simple TTS? Unlike other extensions that rely on cloud services (slow and less private), Simple TTS works offline* and is extremely fast. Ideal for students, researchers, or anyone who prefers to listen to articles while multitasking.
(Offline functionality depends on the voices installed on your operating system.)
