You&#8217;ll find the first one which was all about Microsoft Edge <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/2022\/05\/18\/browser-features-you-may-not-be-using-microsoft-edge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reader\">Reader<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Unlike Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome&#8217;s Reader is (strangely) not turned on by default.  Here&#8217;s how to turn it on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Open Google Chrome and in the address bar, type <strong>chrome:\/\/flags<\/strong><\/li><li>In the search field at the top, type <strong>reader<\/strong><\/li><li>The first result should be &#8220;Enable Reader Mode&#8221;<\/li><li>Using the drop-down menu on the right side of the Reader Mode, choose<strong> Enabled<\/strong>.<\/li><li>As the pop-up window indicates, you will need to relaunch Chrome before the change can take effect.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Now that the reader is enabled, it acts just like the one in Microsoft Edge.  The feature doesn&#8217;t show up when you&#8217;re searching or on a page with tons of stories.  However, if you click on one of the articles, at the right side of the address bar, you&#8217;ll see this:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"392\" height=\"57\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome.jpg\" alt=\"Google Chrome Reader icon in address bar.\" class=\"wp-image-7010\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome.jpg 392w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome-300x44.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 392px) 100vw, 392px\" \/><figcaption>I&#8217;ve circled the Reader icon<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">You should be familiar with the Star icon &#8211; that&#8217;s how you mark a page a Bookmark (aka Favorite).  The Reader is the left icon.  If you click or tap it, you&#8217;ll then see this:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"309\" height=\"49\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome002.jpg\" alt=\"Google Chrome Reader icon colored blue meaning it is active\" class=\"wp-image-7011\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome002.jpg 309w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/reader_chrome002-300x49.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 309px) 100vw, 309px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">The Reader icon is now blue and the story you were viewing doesn&#8217;t show ads and\/or other distracting graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-text-preferences\">Text Preferences<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Once you are in Reading mode, an icon appears on the right-side just above the text.    <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences001.jpg\" alt=\"One of the browser features you may not be using - text preferences\" class=\"wp-image-7015\" width=\"840\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences001.jpg 869w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences001-600x149.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences001-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences001-768x191.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">When you click or tap the icon, this window appears:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"519\" height=\"266\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences002A.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of the Chrome text preferences\" class=\"wp-image-7017\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences002A.jpg 519w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences002A-400x205.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_text_preferences002A-300x154.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 519px) 100vw, 519px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Using the features available, you can change the Font (limited fonts available), the text size and the color of the background.  You might note that if you choose the black background, the text automatically changes to white. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-read-aloud\">Read Aloud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Again, unlike Microsoft Edge, there is no built-in method of reading a page aloud.  However, you can easily add an extension that will read you a page.  The extension is found in the Chrome Web Store.  Rather than making you search, you can go to it directly by clicking <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/read-aloud-a-text-to-spee\/hdhinadidafjejdhmfkjgnolgimiaplp?hl=en#:~:text=To%20use%20Read%20Aloud%2C%20navigate,Stop%2C%20Rewind%2C%20and%20Forward.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Once you&#8217;ve added the Read Aloud Extension, you&#8217;ll see this icon in your list of extensions:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/readaloud_chrome.jpg\" alt=\"The Chrome extension Read Aloud icon circled in read.\" class=\"wp-image-7014\" width=\"551\" height=\"66\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/readaloud_chrome.jpg 551w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/readaloud_chrome-400x48.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/readaloud_chrome-300x36.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 551px) 100vw, 551px\" \/><figcaption>Read Aloud icon is circled in red.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">When you want a page read aloud to you, simply click or tap the icon.  Once the audio begins, you&#8217;ll see this window:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"931\" height=\"894\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_readaloud.jpg\" alt=\"Chrome Reading Aloud extension control window\" class=\"wp-image-7019\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_readaloud.jpg 931w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_readaloud-600x576.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_readaloud-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chrome_readaloud-768x737.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 931px) 100vw, 931px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">At the top of the window, you can pause and restart the reading or stop it altogether.  By using the arrows, you can move forward and backward.  You should note that the text being read is highlighted in yellow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-grammar-tools\">Grammar Tools<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Google Chrome doesn&#8217;t have built-in grammar tools like Microsoft Edge does.  Instead, you need to install an extension to perform these functions.  There are a number of grammar extensions available.  Find a list of them <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/search\/grammar?_category=extensions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/strong>.  For the record, I use the Grammarly extension which you can find <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/grammarly-grammar-checker\/kbfnbcaeplbcioakkpcpgfkobkghlhen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/grammarly_menu.jpg\" alt=\"Grammarly for Chrome control window\" class=\"wp-image-7020\" width=\"369\" height=\"649\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/grammarly_menu.jpg 537w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/grammarly_menu-400x704.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/grammarly_menu-170x300.jpg 170w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-translator\">Translator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">You might begin to see a pattern with Google Chrome.  If you want the ability to translate a web page, you need to add an extension.  I prefer the Google Translate extension which you can find <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/google-translate\/aapbdbdomjkkjkaonfhkkikfgjllcleb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-reader-example\">Reader Example<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Let&#8217;s look at some examples of the Google Chrome Reader.  While these images are small, just click or tap on a photo and it will show you the full photo.  We&#8217;ll start with a normal article:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"781\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main-781x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Example of a webpage in normal view.\" class=\"wp-image-7022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main-781x1024.jpg 781w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main-600x786.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main-768x1007.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main.jpg 1014w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 781px) 100vw, 781px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">In the article above (remember, you can click or tap it to see it larger), I put a red circle around the Reader icon.  Now, if you were to select the Reader icon, the page would appear like this:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"469\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader-469x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A page in Reader mode.\" class=\"wp-image-7024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader-469x1024.jpg 469w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader-400x874.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader-137x300.jpg 137w, https:\/\/www.4kcc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/1440_main_reader.jpg 562w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-translate-example\">Translate Example<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Using the same page as above, I used the Google Translate extension.
