Transcript Reader does for subtitles what Safari's default "reader mode" does for articles: create a comfortable reading experience. But its usefulness extends beyond enabling users to focus on video content: Transcript Reader invites video watchers to select, search, copy, Quick note, and read ahead in the transcript. Whether you're a student trying to focus on a lecture, whether you have ADHD and find websites distracting, whether you have a hearing impairment and rely heavily on transcripts, or whether you have some sort of vision impairment that makes reading "on video" subtitles challenging Transcript Reader is for you.
