  description

  Read any article without the noise.
  
  The web is built to distract you. Every article is surrounded by ads, pop-ups, cookie banners, recommended videos, and sidebars fighting for your attention. Aura Reader cuts through all of that with a single click.
  
  Click the Aura icon while reading any article and it instantly opens the clean, readable version on https://auraread.me. No copy-pasting URLs. No waiting. Just click and read.
  
  What Aura does:
  • Strips ads & clutter — Removes ads, sidebars, pop-ups, and navigation junk using Mozilla's Readability engine
  • Cleans any article — Works on most news sites, blogs, and publishers
  • Preserves readability — Keeps images, headings, and article structure intact
  • Respects your time — One click from your toolbar, zero friction
  
  Built for readers who value focus.
  
  Aura is a free online article reader with optional Pro features: custom themes, font adjustments, ASMR focus sounds, RSVP speed reading, AI summaries, PDF export, Send-to-Kindle, RSS feeds, and cloud sync. This extension is the fastest way to get articles into Aura.
  
  How it works:
  1. Install the extension and pin it to your toolbar
  2. Visit any article you want to read
  3. Click the Aura icon — the clean version opens instantly in a new tab
  4. Enjoy distraction-free reading with your favorite theme and font
  
  Privacy first.
  Aura does not track your browsing, store your history, or sell your data. The extension only reads the current page URL to open it in Aura. Nothing more.
