How to Enable Reader Mode in Google Chrome on Desktop [Guide]

When you enable Reader Mode in Google Chrome, you can use Toggle reader mode on a web page for a simplified view of the web page for easier reading. The Reader Mode feature does this by removing (distilling) all unnecessary elements (ex: ads, menus, scripts, etc...) from the web page. Toggle reader mode will be available in the address bar and "Customize and control Google Chrome" (3 dots) menu for sites that support using reader mode.

If you disable Reader Mode in Google Chrome, Toggle reader mode will not be available in the "Customize and control Google Chrome" (3 dots) menu.

In Chrome's address bar, type "chrome://flags" and press Enter. Search for "Reader Mode" on the Experiments page, set "Enable Reader Mode" to "Enabled," and click "Relaunch" to activate it. Open a web page you want to view in reader mode and click the Reader Mode icon at the right side of the address bar to activate it.

Most web browsers have a built-in "Reader Mode" that converts web pages into a more reader-friendly view. Strangely, Google Chrome does not have this feature---unless you know how to find it. We'll show you where it is.

This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Alienware, Razer, MSI, Huawei , Microsoft Surface, and Samsung.

Hello^^ I really like the video! It was really helpful. I have one question. How do I copy text in reading mode? I don't think I can copy text after dragging.😀

the icon appears now as an open book instead, also to peg it you dont do it as an extension but an icon appears that allows you do it once LAUNCHED.. I found that many sites dont have it as they are designed differently, but useful for copy text to clipboard
