If you often read long articles or reports in your Microsoft Edge browser on iPad, then you can use the Read aloud feature in Microsoft Edge for iPad. Read aloud is an in-built feature of Microsoft Edge that helps you read webpage content without reading it yourself. Your device will read it for you; you can listen to the voice as it reads. The best thing is that you can set different accents to understand the content better and in your native accent.
It is helpful when you need to read many paragraphs in a day and want to accelerate the process. As no third-party application is required, you can quickly enable it. Let’s check out all the features and options so that you can get started with this functionality.
How to use Read aloud in Microsoft Edge for iPad
To use Read aloud in Microsoft Edge for iPad, follow these steps-
- Open a webpage that you want to read.
- Tap on the text and hold it until you get some popup options.
- Select Read aloud from the list of options.
First, open a webpage in the Microsoft Edge browser on your iPad. Then, tap and hold a word in the content area that you want to listen to. It should fire up some options, and you need to choose Read aloud from the menu.
Now, your browser should start reading the content immediately.
You should check some minimal settings. For example, the play/pause button is on the top menu bar. The next/previous paragraph buttons are visible around it.
There is a settings gear button visible on the top-left corner. If you tap on it, it will open some settings to change the Reading rate and Voice. You can make the reading rate fast or slow using the bar visible on your screen.
If you want to change the voice or accent, tap the current language option and select something from the list. Although the list doesn’t include all the accents from around the world, you can find something handy in it.
