- Google is improving Chrome’s Listen to this page feature by adding background playback support.
- The feature can now read aloud webpages even when you turn off your phone’s screen or switch to a different app.
Google introduced a helpful accessibility feature in Chrome for Android earlier this year that lets users listen to a webpage. It came with a full-fledged widget with playback controls and various voice options. However, it lacked background playback support. Google is addressing this shortcoming with the latest update for the browser app.
Background playback support for Chrome’s “Listen to this page” feature was first spotted soon after it rolled out to users this June, but it was hidden behind an experimental flag. 9to5Google reports that it is now rolling out to Android users with Chrome 130.
