## Full description
Listen to Article reads web articles aloud using your browser's built-in SpeechSynthesis. It works entirely on-device, with no tracking or data sent anywhere. Use it for accessibility, reducing eye strain, or staying productive while multitasking.

## Key features
- Article reading with play, pause/resume, and stop
- Jump to next/previous paragraph and repeat the last paragraph
- Read selected text from any page
- Voice selector and speed control
- Adjustable sentence pause between segments
- Multiple highlight styles and contrast presets
- Copy text and download .txt for offline reading
- Resume from the last position
- Progress indicator and optional highlight while reading

## How it works
1) Open a page with an article.
2) Click the toolbar icon to open the popup.
3) Press Play to start reading, or select text and use Read Selected Text.
4) Use Next/Prev/Repeat to navigate and Resume or Restart to continue where you left off.

## Permissions (plain language)
The extension needs access to the current page so it can extract visible text and read it aloud. It does not collect or send data.
