Hi Firefox community! 

   I really like using the narrator feature after having gotten it to use the Microsoft Eva Mobile voice, and would put it in the background as I do something else in another tab. Thing is, I can't listen to the narrator and focus on what I am doing at the same time, so I frequently want to pause it to digest what I heard. So far though, there's only a Stop button which is a problem at long paragraphs such as transcripts.

Is there an extension or a setting that pauses the Narrator right to the words it was reading? (Also if this isn't the correct place to ask this do notify me) Thanks!

Hello wapiti4,

I've been looking for an addon that will do what you want - to no avail ....

All I could find is :

https://www.ghacks.net/2016/03/08/narrate-text-to-speech-firefox/

It says here :

"One interesting feature of Narrate is that hitting stop will have Reader Mode remember the paragraph Narrate processed at that time so that audio playback jumps back to the beginning of that paragraph when you hit play again instead of starting from the very beginning."

But that is not the same as pausing and restarting where you left off.

In this (old) bug report they were working on it for Nightly and Aurora :

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1294711

I think a pause button that will do just what you want should be there - I'm hoping that someone else may know if there is a way to make that happen ......
