Google has updated its Reading Mode app to make it even better. Now, you can use it in Gmail, Threads, X, and other apps like social media and email. This is important because Reading mode makes everything you read simple and clear by converting it to plain text. This means no more distractions, just easier reading.
The app was first introduced in 2020, and this new update means you can enjoy simple reading on even more apps. Although it may not work perfectly with every social media or email app, it should still help make reading easier most of the time.
Ever since Google ruined Assistant's "Read aloud" functionality a few weeks ago, I switched to their Reading Mode app and have been very happy with it. It's even better than Assistant.
You swipe up from the bottom with two fingers to instantly activate it. Brilliant.

Plus, if you’re busy and can’t see your screen, the app can read the text out loud for you. This is great for when you’re on the go and still want to check emails or posts.
