| 2024-08-11 | Firefox user 18423161 | | Where to start! Firstly, I'd like to thank Robert (the developer) for his generosity - the app is extremely cheap as apps go, and if you request a discount, one is available on top of this. It is very apparent that this app is a labour of love - Robert is constantly working on it and improving things, adding new features, etc. As someone with ADHD and ASD, I have always had to piece-meal together the features I need to help me study effectively - half a dozen different apps / extensions, and even then they don't quite meet my expectations. Helperbird, however, offers SO MUCH more, and all in one place - you can finetune your experience to your heart's desire, without shelling out for multiple apps that were abandoned ages ago. I have tried it on two browsers, so far, and the experience is great on each - I have to applaud Jamie's dedicated to rolling it out on multiple browsers and operating systems, it can't be a small feat. There is the occasional quirk or bug here and there, but the sheer breadth and depth of assistance Helperbird offers far outweighs having to quit and relaunch the extension now and then. If you do come across a bug, it's a chance to give back and send a bug report and help Robert refine the experience further. The features I particularly love are summarise, simplify, sticky notes, highlighting, and the amazing immersive reader with TTS. I also love the speed reader, which will be even better once TTS is added to it. I can't sing Helperbird's praises enough, and I'm excited for the planned updates detailed on its ClickUp!! (https://sharing.clickup.com/36059453/b/6-174196898-2/board if you're curious) Thank you, Robert, for such a thoughtful - and genuinely helpful - app / extension. You are empowering the neurodivergent everywhere. 🙏 |
