- Google Chrome has just launched a feature called "Listen to this page" which allows users to listen to web pages out loud on their Android devices.
This feature is integrated into the Chrome browser and offers playback controls such as pause, change speed, forward, backward, and 10-second skip.
Accessibility: This feature is especially beneficial for visually impaired users or those who want to read web pages while traveling or multitasking. Ease of Use: Users can enable this feature easily by tapping the speaker-shaped “Listen to this page” icon in the address bar.
Playback Controls: Intuitive playback controls allow users to easily customize their listening experience. Availability: The "Listen to this page" feature is currently only available for Android Chrome users. Overall, the launch of the “Listen to this page” feature is a positive step from Google to improve the accessibility and convenience of Chrome users on Android devices.
The advantages of this feature involve ease of access and navigation. Users no longer need to open their browser and search for their website link. Instead, they can directly access the website via the app icon located on their desktop. This can increase efficiency and productivity in daily use.
While this feature is still in the testing phase with Chrome Canary, users who want to try out this capability can follow the steps mentioned above. Keep in mind that this feature may undergo changes over time before it is officially released in a Chrome update.
With continuous improvements in user experience, Google Chrome is constantly looking for ways to enrich its functionality. Stay tuned for further updates as this “install page as app” feature develops in Google Chrome.
