it's fine if you're only planning on using the free version. But even with the premium subscription, the tts is clunky and adjusting the voice and read speed takes a lot more time than it should.

Locks basic features like disabling unwanted features behind a paywall. Enabling fine but disabling is an absolute no no for paywalling.
