Most people read at the speed they picked up in school and never test it again. Read Wizzard turns that speed into a number you can see — and then trains it. TEST FIRST, THEN TRAIN A baseline test measures your real reading speed in words per minute and how much you actually retain. Everything after that is built on that number. 50 EXERCISES, NOT A COURSE TO SIT THROUGH Short, timed, hands-on drills: pointer pacing, anti-regression, subvocalisation control, chunking, eye-span and peripheral expansion, Schultz tables, skimming and scanning, SQ3R, mind mapping, memory palaces and photoreading. Your training line adapts as you improve, so the next exercise fits the level you are actually at — not the level you started at. TRAIN ON BOOKS YOU CARE ABOUT • A built-in library of complete books, ready to read. • Or bring your own — EPUB, PDF, MOBI and DOCX. • The reader remembers your position, and time spent reading counts toward your progress automatically. SPEED THAT KEEPS COMPREHENSION Comprehension checks after reading sessions make sure the number going up means something. Charts track speed and understanding side by side, over weeks. A HABIT, NOT A WEEKEND PROJECT Daily streaks, experience points, levels and badges. Weekly plans, so you always know what to do next. For students, professionals and anyone who reads a lot and wants those hours to go further. Sign in with your Read Wizzard account to start training. ## Version history (last 5 releases) ### 1.0.9 — 2026-09-07 New Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets: your streak, XP and crystals at a glance, with a step-by-step guide to help you add them. Lock Screen cards now show the mascot, and their clock counts down to midnight - the moment your streak is actually at stake. Plus a batch of layout and performance fixes. ### 1.0.8 — 2026-08-20 New: the unfinished exercise card on your Lock Screen. If you leave the app with an exercise in progress, you get a gentle reminder, and one tap takes you right back where you left off, with the timer paused. Exercise timers now pause while the app is in the background and resume only when you ask — time spent in another app no longer counts toward your result. ### 1.0.7 — 2026-08-19 New: the friends card on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — see how many of your friends have trained today without opening the app, and tap it to jump straight to your friends list. The streak countdown now also shows the XP and crystals you collected today, and you get a single card per day, no matter how it started. ### 1.0.6 — 2026-08-18 Notifications that actually help: a distinct sound for each type, a large image when you expand them, and a long-press action button that takes you straight into training. New: your streak countdown on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — see how much time is left until midnight without opening the app. Plus an unread badge on the app icon. ### 1.0.5 — 2026-08-13 Push notifications: enable them from your Profile to get streak reminders and updates. Improved Google and Apple sign-in — now opens in the secure system sheet. New, more legible app icon. ## Related topics [speed reading wpm](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/speed-reading-wpm) · [reading comprehension speed](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/reading-comprehension-speed) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
