Why Report an Issue?

If something is not working correctly in Helperbird, reporting the issue with your debug information helps the support team diagnose and fix the problem much faster. Debug information includes details about your browser, extension version, and current settings — it does not include any personal data.


Step 1: Open Helperbird

Click the Helperbird icon in your browser toolbar. It looks like a small owl and is usually in the top-right corner of your browser.

This will open the Helperbird menu.


Step 2: Open the Settings Page

Click the gear icon in the top-left corner of the Helperbird menu. This will open the Settings page. You will see an Info section with your version number, sync toggle, and links to the Roadmap, Help, and Report an issue.


Step 3: Click Report an Issue

In the Info section of the Settings page, find the Report an issue row and click the View button next to it.

A panel will appear showing your debug information.


Step 4: Copy the Debug Information

Click the Copy button to copy all the debug information to your clipboard. This includes your browser type, extension version, and current feature settings.


Step 5: Send It to Support

Go to the Helperbird support page and send a message describing your issue. Paste the debug information you copied into your message. Be sure to also include:

  • What you were trying to do
  • What happened instead
  • The website where the issue occurred (if applicable)

The more detail you provide, the faster the support team can help.

Tip: If a feature is not working on a specific website, include the website URL in your report. Some websites have restrictions that can affect how Helperbird works.

Excellent company and so easy to deal with. Robert showed great patience and answered every question I put. I use it for immersive reading and it is an excellent app. Well done.

This is a great little extension, lightweight and non intrusive. With dyslexia its reading that's an issue, not the underlying intelligence. An aid such as this one, can help deliver the world to some who may not otherwise have received it. Great Work.

Amazing Extensions in chrome. I Installed in my parents computer, because my dad have a poor vision, due to bad eye surgery. this extension really helps to have able to manipulate the font and font size for more comfortable use instead of chrome zoom feature. Because the chrome zoom feature is its overly zoom will cause the page looking super weird.

I've been meaning to write this review for a while now. My daughter is newly diagnosed with dyslexia and I heard an interview with Robert on a Newstalk podcast and sought it out. I wasn't sure if I had it installed correctly on her laptop and Robert was on straight away to help. He was amazing. This app has changed everything for my daughter. Everything is accessible to her and everyday tasks and schoolwork are so much easier. She also has visual stress so the coloured overlay feature is a game changer for her. I would highly recommend this app to anyone, she couldn't be without it now!
