GlideRead Help

A few useful details, so you can get back to reading.

Supports desktop Chrome/Edge 120+ and Firefox 140+. Private windows are not supported. Site compatibility depends on page structure and access restrictions.

Getting started and continuous reading

On an HTTP/HTTPS novel chapter page, click the extension icon, choose “Open current page”, and grant access to the current site. You can then open the reader using the site’s “GlideRead · Read” floating button. The next chapter from the same origin loads automatically near the bottom. If loading fails, retry or open the original page to handle verification.

Detection and replacements

If detection is incorrect, use the correction tool to select the chapter text and next-chapter link. Text replacements support global and current-site rules, which you can edit, preview, save, disable or delete. Preview first when possible. If a complex regular expression times out, the original text is kept and you are prompted to adjust the rules.

Reading history

Opening from a site chapter always uses the current page; position is restored only for the same chapter. Clicking a record in “Recent reading” opens a new tab to resume the saved chapter. Delete individual records or clear the entire history.

Permissions and feedback

Use “Site permissions and detection rules” in the popup to manage or revoke permissions. Revoked sites require permission again before the extension can run. Send feedback through the support channel listed on the official store page, including browser version, extension version, steps to reproduce and a public page address. You do not need to share your full reading history, account, cookies or private chapter text.
