Readox is a Chrome extension that reads web pages, PDFs, selections, text files (ie markdown), and text input notes aloud with TTS.
You can just play the current page, or save things to a library and queue them up. It highlights as it reads, keeps your place across items, and can OCR scanned PDFs. TTS (for text and PDF) and OCR run on-device, and it works offline after setup.
I’m interested on feedback on the library collections as a "playlist-like" functionality, or if most people just want a play button for the current page. Also interested in anything that feels missing or awkward. Thanks!
