Hi there

I use the read aloud version quite often to help me retain what i'm reading, but the problem is the control of the reader is quite clunky when i have to pause or go back a paragraph. Is it possible to add a pause, play, fastforward and rewind button to the corner of the screen? being able to manage speed without having to restart from the begining of the page would also be very helpful. Is there an add on or setting where i can do this?

Firefox by default doesn't have such option built-in that is through 3rd party software or from the Addon page of Firefox. So you need to tell us what read aloud version it is and where you installed or downloaded it from. If this isn't a Firefox software but Addon then you need to contact the Addon Developer for support on using their software.

Read aloud: Have Firefox read an article out loud in Reader View.

Even if this was an Extension people are welcome to try and get help here as not all of the third-party authors or companies behind the Extension has means of doing direct support.
