Hi Jim,

Please explain how I can get the TextAloud extension to install on the BRAVE Browser.

Thanks.

Hi Richard,

I'm not familiar with the Brave browser, I'll need to investigate. I noticed that Brave supports Chrome extensions, so you might be able to get TAForChrome.xpi, located in the TextAloud install directory, loaded into Brave. But I will need to do some checking on how the extension communicates with the TextAloud application ... I don't know the answer to that now.

Sorry, my mistake. I had Chrome confused with Firefox. If you want to try installing the Chrome extension manually you can install it directly from the chrome store at this link:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/deta ... dollcfnidj

The extension is marked as private since it only works with TextAloud, so you won't find the extension by searching for it, you need to use the link. The extension is going to be looking for the chrome part of the install that talks to TextAloud, so it may turn out that the extension appears in Brave but won't work.
