What is Reading Mode on Chrome?
If you haven’t been paying attention, Google added a nifty Reading Mode for Chrome on Windows and Android. This mode allows the user to read any article, blog, or news piece without any distractions. It opens up in a separate panel without any ads or pop-ups. The text is displayed against a plain background. The user can change the size and font of the text along with the colour of the background.
You can enter Reading Mode on your PC by right-clicking anywhere on the screen and selecting ‘Open in Reading Mode’. To access it on your Android phone, you will need to install the Reading Mode app first. Once that’s done, go to Accessibility Settings, select Reading Mode, and turn on its toggle switch. Once it is enabled, you can use its shortcut in the Chrome app to open any article in reading mode.
