Extension Usage Instructions

                        Easy to Read extension turns difficult sentences into easy sentences. All you have to do is hover over a sentence that is hard to understand. The app will then show you a version that is simple to understand. 

We created this app for a family member who has a mental disability. But we soon found out it helps many people, both with disabilities and with no disabilities. 

Easy to Read helps people who are not native English speakers. It helps people who are learning to read. It helps students, reading difficult texts. Anyone who wants to better understand what they are reading, will enjoy this tool.

1. Click the green Install button.

2. When the button turns from Install into Open, click Open.

3. Go to the top right side of your Chrome and click the jigsaw puzzle icon.

4. From the menu that will open, choose Manage Extensions at the very bottom.

5. On the web page that will open, you will see all your chrome apps. The Easy to Read one, will be on the top left. 

6. There will be a toggle button. Move it to the right. It will turn from gray to blue. If it is already blue. Leave it like that.
