I ❤️🔥 UR plug-in- Select Text 2 Search Support Button on the Play Store 4 free cuz it's a super badass idea 2 have searchable capabilities built-in 2 the text edit options throughout Android OS & all overlays but also, please find away to add Google Select Text 2 TTS Support Button as well that's as easy 2 integrate the Support Button capabilities setup & super easy like the Select Text 2 TTS Setup & that would make this plug-in up-to-date W/ Android 15 OneUI7 & ect for all Android 15+/- devices

This is a great app that provides something I've wanted for years. One question though. When I open the selected text box, I see "Web search" offered twice. This does no harm. I'm still very happy to have this app, but why is it offered twice?

I'm sorry to give a bad review score, I just need your attention to help me get this to work. I'm trying to use it inside and app called obsidian, and it isn't working for some reason. Any clues ?

Doesn't let me select text, nor does a search appear. I might as well just select the address bar and type it in manually then I suppose
