About
Know exactly how long any text takes to read before you start it. Paste an article, an email, an essay or a book chapter and Reading Time instantly shows the minutes it will take you, the word count, and how hard the writing actually is.
Most word counters stop at a number. This one turns that number into time — at your pace. It compares slow, average, fast and speed-reading paces side by side, gives you a speaking-aloud time for scripts and presentations, and scores the passage with the real Flesch Reading Ease and Flesch-Kincaid grade-level formulas. Everything is calculated on your device the instant you paste. No account, no internet, no waiting.
WHAT YOU GET
- The exact minutes a text will take you, not a rough "5 min read" guess
- Your own reading pace dialed in with a words-per-minute slider from 80 to 900
- Four reading paces plus speaking time compared on one screen
- A plain-English readability verdict: reading ease out of 100, grade level and audience
- Live word, character, sentence and paragraph counts as you type or paste
- A saved shelf of your reads with total words and total minutes still ahead of you
PERFECT FOR
- Students sizing up a chapter or a paper before a study session
- Writers and editors keeping prose clear and at the right grade level
- Speakers and creators timing a script, a talk or a voiceover
- Anyone deciding whether an article fits the ten minutes they actually have
WHY NOT JUST DIVIDE WORDS BY 200?
Because 200 is not your speed, and it says nothing about this text's difficulty. Reading Time uses a words-per-minute value you calibrate yourself, counts sentences and syllables the way the published formulas require, and shows the reading level so a dense research paper is never mistaken for a blog post of the same length.
PRIVACY
Everything happens offline on your iPhone. Your text is never uploaded, never stored on a server, never shared. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. Saved reads live only on your device.
FULL ACCESS
The free app gives you reading time at the average pace, speaking time and all live text counts. Full access unlocks the Readability screen (Flesch reading ease, grade level, words per sentence, syllables per word, long-word share), the fast and speed-reader paces, the custom 80 to 900 WPM slider with a saved default, and your unlimited saved reading shelf. Available as a weekly plan, a yearly plan, or a one-time lifetime purchase that never renews.
Paste your next article and see the minutes before you commit to it.
