Feedback and report on Immersive Reader in Edge Canary Version 83
There are some preferences that are Remembered and there are some preferences that are Reset/Lost after Immersive Reader mode page is refreshed or when user quits and goes into Immersive Reader mode again.
Preferences that are remembered:
- Read Aloud voice
- Text Preferences => Text Size
- Text Preferences => Page Theme
- Text Preferences => Spacing
Preferences that are Lost/reset:
- Reading Preferences => Line focus
- Reading Preferences => Picture Dictionary
- Grammar Tools => syl.la.bles
- Grammar Tools => Part of speech (all of the options)
- Grammar Tools => Show labels
Here is a demo video: https://streamable.com/17rz4
Please set all of the preferences to be remembered and never be lost once user configures them.
it'd be perfect if they could also be synced with "settings sync" in Edge.

HotCakeX in addition to the immersive reader settings, some extensions should be usable too (e.g. Google Dictionary). Readwise works in the immersive reader too, for example, which makes a lot of sense.
- Yes that's true, at least until they bring back the built in work lookup from Edge legacy to the new Edge
