This feature is helpful for:

  • Anyone who wants to find features quickly
  • People who are new to Helperbird and exploring tools
  • Users who cannot remember where a specific feature is located
  • Anyone who wants faster access to Helperbird tools
  • People who use many different features

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.


In the top right corner of the Helperbird panel, look for the search icon. It looks like a magnifying glass.

Click the search icon or click the Open search button.

A search bar will appear where you can type.


Step 3: Search for Features

Type the name of the feature you are looking for. Helperbird will instantly filter the results to show only matching tools.

You can search by:

  • Feature names like "Reading Mode", "Voice Typing", or "Translate"
  • Categories like "Reading", "Writing", or "Dyslexia"
  • Keywords related to what you want to do

As you type, the results update in real time. Click on any feature in the results to open it immediately.

Tip: If you do not remember the exact feature name, try searching for what you want to accomplish. For example, search "read aloud", "highlight", or "fonts" to find related tools.

My son has dyslexia and has been struggling with parts of distant learning over the last year. We recently discovered this software and he is loving everything about it, especially with the ease of following directions and completing his assignments! We have used several other tools but this has everything a dyslexia person needs all in one bundle! The upgrade is definitely worth it to make our daily struggles, on the computer, run much smoother. I also greatly appreciate customer support (helpdesk). They went above and beyond to make sure we were all set up on the computer for my son to most successful.

I have to admit, I have tried several other similar products which were awful. Helperbird is truly amazing! The font changes, colours, overlays, notes, text to speech and I love the 50 natural languages! 100% worth updating.
