Dyslexly - Dyslexia Toolkit: Reader & Writing Tools

Description

Free dyslexia Chrome extension: OpenDyslexic, colour overlay, text-to-speech, line focus and PDF reader. No account. DYSLEXLY — A FLEXIBLE READING AND WRITING TOOLKIT FOR CHROME Make online reading feel clearer, calmer and less tiring. Dyslexly lets you adjust the appearance of text on most ordinary websites. Choose a specialist font or keep the website’s original font, increase spacing, add a colour overlay, focus on one line at a time, hear text aloud and open compatible PDFs in a more adjustable reader. There is no single setting that works for every reader. Dyslexly gives you a collection of tools you can combine and adjust until you find a setup that feels comfortable for you. GET STARTED IN UNDER A MINUTE When you first open Dyslexly, you can choose what you would like help with and preview the difference before changing a live website. Turn individual tools on or off at any time. You remain in control of the page, and your preferred settings can be remembered for different websites. FREE READING TOOLS The everyday reading tools are free to use and do not require an account, subscription or credit card: • OpenDyslexic, Lexend, Atkinson Hyperlegible and Andika fonts • Keep the website’s original system font if you prefer • Adjustable font size, letter spacing, word spacing and line height • Preset and custom colour overlays • Line focus to reduce the amount of text visible at once • Reading ruler to help you keep your place • Read selected text aloud with word highlighting • “Listen from here” with simple on-page playback controls • Syllable colours for supported English text • Bionic reading mode • Simplified reader view for reducing surrounding page clutter • Highlights and annotations • Different settings for different websites • Built-in reader for compatible PDF documents • Master on/off shortcut using Alt+Shift+C • Read-aloud shortcut using Alt+Shift+R • Useful reading actions in the right-click menu You can use one tool on its own or combine several. For example, you might keep the original font, increase line spacing, add a pale overlay and use line focus while reading a long article. READ WEB PAGES YOUR WAY Dyslexly is designed for people who find standard webpage layouts uncomfortable, distracting or tiring. It may be helpful for: • Dyslexic children and adults • Students reading assignments or research • People who lose their place in long passages • Readers who prefer increased spacing or larger text • People who find bright white backgrounds uncomfortable • Anyone who prefers listening to text while following the words • Parents, teachers and support workers helping someone find a comfortable reading setup You do not need a diagnosis to use Dyslexly. READ COMPATIBLE PDF DOCUMENTS Many browser PDF viewers provide limited control over fonts, spacing and page colours. Dyslexly includes its own PDF reader for compatible text-based documents. Open a PDF through Dyslexly to use adjustable reading controls and read-aloud tools. Scanned PDFs that contain only images may require text recognition before their contents can be read or restyled. OPTIONAL PRO TOOLS The core reading controls remain free. Dyslexly Pro adds advanced reading and writing assistance for people who want additional support: • Make easier — rewrite selected text using clearer language • Clear voice — additional natural-sounding reading options • Hover to hear — hear text without manually selecting it • Speak as I type — hear words while writing • Explain this — receive a clearer explanation of selected text • Hear image — recognise and read text contained in an image • Picture dictionary — connect words with helpful visual references • Simplify difficult English words • Word prediction while typing in English • Speech-to-text dictation • Grammar checking • Personal vocabulary list • Export readable page text You can try Dyslexly Pro for seven days without entering card details. After the trial, Pro costs £24.99 per year or £4.99 per month. The annual plan works out at approximately £2.08 per month. Pro is optional, and the free reading toolkit remains available if you do not upgrade. LANGUAGE SUPPORT The Dyslexly interface is available in: • English • Dutch • French • German • Hindi • Japanese • Portuguese • Spanish Dyslexly uses script-appropriate font fallbacks for Hindi and Japanese pages. Read-aloud and several language-aware tools follow the language of the page. Syllable colours, English word simplification and word prediction currently support English text only. Unsupported tools are clearly disabled rather than producing unreliable results. BROWSER COMPATIBILITY Dyslexly works with Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave and other Chromium-based browsers. It works on most ordinary text-based websites, but browsers prevent extensions from changing certain protected pages. These include the Chrome Web Store, browser settings, some protected frames and certain complex web applications. Dyslexly explains these limitations and provides a compatible test page so you can confirm that your preferred settings are working. PRIVACY Your reading preferences are stored using Chrome’s extension storage. The free visual controls do not send the pages you visit to Dyslexly. Dyslexly does not sell your browsing history or create a record of the websites you visit. Features that require cloud processing only transmit the content you deliberately submit or activate. Limited anonymous product events may include the extension version and country-level information, but not your browsing history or website hostnames. Read the complete privacy policy at dyslexly.com/privacy. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Dyslexly is an accessibility and productivity tool. It does not diagnose, prevent or treat dyslexia, visual stress, ADHD or any other medical or educational condition. Different readers prefer different fonts, colours and layouts. Dyslexly helps you compare options and choose what feels right for you. Schools and organisations can ask about site licences at dyslexly.com/schools.
