Reader Mode

Reader Mode is a browser extension and desktop app that transforms cluttered web pages into clean, readable documents. It strips away ads, navigation bars, and other distractions, leaving only the core content in a customizable reading interface. You can adjust fonts, colors, text size, and page width to create your ideal reading experience, with special accessibility features like dyslexia-friendly fonts and a reading ruler.

The tool goes beyond basic reading by adding powerful annotation capabilities. You can highlight text in multiple colors on both web pages and PDFs, add notes to your highlights, and organize everything with labels and folders. It includes text-to-speech functionality that reads content aloud with natural-sounding voices, and can automatically activate on specific websites you frequent.

Reader Mode is particularly useful for students researching papers, professionals who need to digest long articles, and anyone with reading challenges like dyslexia or visual impairments. Its ability to sync highlights and bookmarks with popular tools like Notion, Evernote, and Kindle makes it valuable for building personal knowledge databases from your reading materials.
