The Chrome Web Store rounds user counts down to the leading digit, so the user line moves in steps. The ratings count is exact and is the better signal of real adoption.

About Sky Reader

Sky Reader turns webpages into focused reading environments, leaving just the article and clearing out ads, sidebars, and other distractions. ━━━ READING TOOLS ━━━ ▸ Article View — Reformats the main text of any webpage into a simplified layout. ▸ Text Segmentation (Optional) — Divides long, dense paragraphs into smaller, manageable units to make complex information easier to digest. ▸ Line Gradients (Optional) — Applies a subtle color shift to each line of text. This visual aid helps the eye track its place on the page and prevents line skipping. ▸ Speed Read — Shows text one word at a time in rapid succession, at an adjustable speed. ━━━ CUSTOMIZATION & WORKFLOW ━━━ ▸ Notes — Create and save notes alongside formatted articles for research or study. ▸ Themes — Six built-in themes (Parchment, Dark, Starry Night, Green Screen CRT, 90s GeoCities, and School Book), plus the ability to build and save your own color schemes and font settings. ▸ Manual Input — Paste passages or snippets into the extension popup to apply reading settings to text from anywhere. ▸ Export — Save any article as a PDF (with extended page margins for handwritten notes on printed copies) or as plain text. Source URL and date can optionally be included. ▸ Further Reading — A side drawer that surfaces other articles from the same publication, gathered from the source page. ▸ Session History — Keeps a list of recently formatted articles during your current browsing session for quick re-access. ▸ Image Toggle — Choose whether to include or strip images from the formatted view. ▸ Full Screen — One-click full-screen reading.
