Built around a real reading problem

This project is built around one simple idea: if reading on the web feels visually exhausting, the page should adapt to the reader, not the other way around.

Dyslexia-aware direction

Dyslexia Ease speaks directly to dyslexia and real reading difficulty instead of hiding behind vague productivity language.

Useful before complex

EaseRead focuses on spacing, width, focus, and calmer layout before anything more advanced.

Real use, not theory

The extension was shaped through repeated testing on articles, forums, and other text-heavy pages.

Core features of the extension

These are the main features that make EaseRead genuinely useful in day-to-day reading.

Reading presets

Start with a useful preset and fine-tune from there.

Personal mode

Quick guide

A short path to the core experience. A longer guide lives on the full How To page.

Step 1. Enable the site

Open a text-heavy page and enable EaseRead for the current site. The extension stays off by default until you choose to use it.

Step 2. Adjust the page

Change size, spacing, width, and focus until the page feels easier and calmer to read.

What you can adjust

Version 1 gives direct control over the reading experience instead of forcing one "special" layout on every user.

Text spacing

Change text size, line spacing, and letter spacing directly in the popup.

Content width

Widen or narrow the reading area per site, which turned out to be one of the most useful controls in real use.

Focus mode

Highlight the current paragraph to reduce drifting attention while reading.

Install

The extension is in final preparation for Chrome Web Store publication. The public install link will appear here as soon as the listing is live. Until then, you can review how it works, read the privacy policy, and send feedback.
