Google Chrome on Android is about to have a feature to read web pages out loud! This feature called “Listen to this page” allows you to listen to the content of articles on the web right in your browser. It works like music and podcast applications, with control buttons such as pause, change reading speed, fast forward or rewind each 10-second segment.
You can also choose the desired voice and language. According to Google’s help page, this feature supports multiple languages such as English, French, German, Arabic, Hindi and Spanish. To check if you already have this feature, open a text-heavy web page, then tap the three-dot menu and select “Listen to this page” located just below the “Translate” option.
Note that you can also ask Google Assistant to read web pages for you, and can even translate into another language while reading. However, this will take you out of Chrome and into the Google app, while “Listen to this page” helps you listen to reading right in the browser.
This feature is also being tested on Chrome for desktop. The Safari browser on the iPhone also has a similar feature called “Listen to Page” that uses Siri’s voice and has control functions similar to Google. Currently this feature may only appear on the beta version of Chrome, but Google often rolls out new features in stages. According to news site 9to5Google, this feature can be found on Chrome version 125 for Android.
