Memorizun·Browser extension

Learn a poem on the page where you found it

The Memorizun extension for Chrome finds the poem on a page and hides its words right in the text, the same way our trainer does. You don't have to copy the poem anywhere.

Wordsworth's Daffodils with the Memorizun panel above it; every other word is cut to its first letter

01 How it works

    Open a poem

    A “Learn this poem” button appears above it. Click it to open the panel.

  2. 2

    Pick a step

    The steps are the trainer's: Read, Fill, Recall, Check. Words hide right in the page text.

    Peek when you're stuck

    Click a hidden word to reveal it. Click it again to hide it.

  4. 4

    Say it out loud

02 On any site

The button shows up by itself on stihi.ru, rustih.ru, Wikisource, poetryfoundation.org, poets.org and 28 more poetry sites in English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch and Polish. On any other page, click the extension icon and choose “Learn the text on this page”: the extension finds the poem, takes the text you selected, or lets you click the block you want.

Want the button everywhere? Turn on “Button on every site” in the extension menu. Chrome asks for access to all sites, and the extension then looks for a poem on every page you open. Turn it off and the access is removed.

Until you click or turn that switch on, it does nothing on other sites.

The limits are the same as on memorizun.com. The extension learns your plan when you open the website. Your browser does the speech recognition, so it will ask for microphone access.

04 Save to My texts

The bookmark icon in the panel saves the poem to My texts on memorizun.com. A small Memorizun window opens, saves the text under your account, tells you where to find it and closes. You stay on the page with the poem.

The extension panel: a green My texts button in place of the bookmark icon
After saving, the icon becomes a My texts button that opens this text on memorizun.com.

06 Questions

Is it free?

Yes, the extension is free. A Memorizun subscription lifts the limits: voice is 3 minutes a day without signing in, 12 minutes with an account and unlimited with a subscription, and you can keep more texts.

Do I need an account?

No. Every step works without signing in. Without an account you can save up to three texts of your own.

There's no button above the poem. What now?

The site isn't on the list or the page is built in an unusual way. Click the extension icon and choose “Learn the text on this page” or “Pick a block yourself”. To get the button on any site, turn on “Button on every site” in the same menu.

Which browsers does it work in?

It's an extension for Chrome. Browsers that install extensions from the Chrome Web Store can install it too, but we tested it in Chrome.

Where are my saved texts?

On memorizun.com, in My texts. If you're signed in, you'll see them wherever you sign in to that account.

Available in theChrome Web Store
