What is Reader Mode?
Reader Mode is a reading accessibility tool available as a Chrome extension and a web app. It reformats cluttered webpages and PDFs into clean reading views with adjustable fonts, text size, spacing, colours, contrast and zoom. It adds text-to-speech, reading rulers, bionic reading, highlighting, auto-scroll, speed reading and focus tools such as a Pomodoro timer. It is aimed at readers with dyslexia, ADHD, visual impairments and other diverse reading needs, as well as students and researchers. A rebuilt version is in early access, and the site lists pricing and login options.
