Visor: Screen Dimmer and Reading Aid

Visor is a Chrome extension developed by Nverba. It is a screen dimmer and reading aid that aims to help with fluency, eye-strain, concentration, and comprehension while reading.

With its overlays and point of focus feature, Visor can be particularly useful for users with visual perceptual difficulties such as Dyslexia, Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome, and Visual Stress. Although the effectiveness may vary from person to person, some users have reported improvements in reading fluency, reduced eye-strain, improved concentration, and better comprehension.

Visor offers both traditional overlays and a point of focus feature. The overlays can help reduce visual confusions and the tendency to skip lines, while the point of focus feature tracks your mouse and provides full focus to the content being read, minimizing visual distractions.

This Chrome extension requires no special permissions and needs to be reactivated with each page load. Please note that Visor does not work on Chrome's start page, options pages, or the Chrome web store due to restrictions imposed by Chrome.

Overall, Visor is a helpful tool for those looking to enhance their reading experience and reduce visual distractions while using Chrome.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
