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.
