### 3/5 — Impossibilité de mettre des fichiers

*2024-01-20, version 1.1.0*

Sympa pour lire plus mais vite mais dommage qu’on ne puisse pas mettre de fichier dans l’appli

### 3/5 — Missing essential function

*2022-06-06, version 1.0.6*

Love the app, has helped me a lot these days. There is just one inconvenience that I find very annoying, the fact that after quitting a book it won’t allow you to take off where you left it. For instance I was on chapter four and had to let the auto reader get until that point from the beginning to be able to continue reading

### 2/5 — イラつく

いちいちcopyしないと再生されないのがうざい

### 2/5 — Could not work

### 3/5 — Need a dark mode and more usable

*2021-07-22, version 1.0.6*

Need a dark mode and more usable great idea though

### 1/5 — Zero customer support

*2021-06-09, version 1.0.6*

Don‘t even waste your time.

### 2/5 — Нет разъяснений

*2021-06-04, version 1.0.6*

Как работает приложение непонятно

### 2/5 — No support and sign-in problems

*2021-05-26, version 1.0.6*

I’ve been experiencing sign-in problems for months. Repeated emails to support went without a response. And now, I have been charged an annual subscription renewal that I never asked to repeat automatically. 
Pity, because the idea is good enough.

### 1/5 — Sign up and sign in not working

*2021-05-09, version 1.0.6*

Could not even try it

### 1/5 — Error

*2021-03-10, version 1.0.6*

Al momento de querer introducir el texto a la barra de Spritz, no me deja, lo selecciono, lo copio, se queda cargando y me dice que por favor copie y pegue, pero no me deja, estaría genial poder solucionar eso, ya que es la función de la app

### 2/5 — Pointless to use

*2021-01-07, version 1.0.6*

Spritzing text is great but the app is to troublesome to use. Specifically... (because I like this idea and I want this fixed so I can use it), it’s difficult to highlight a lot of text. If the text is off the screen it won’t scroll down to highlight it. It stops highlighting at the, “subscribe for $1” ribbon and doesn’t scroll down so doing it manually, in sections, takes longer than just reading it normally. Thus, this app is pointless. Using an iPhone 12 Mini, software version 14.2.1.

### 1/5 — Don’t work with google docs((((((

*2021-01-02, version 1.0.6*

Don’t work with google docs((((((
Я хотела создать свой документ на  google disk и потом его читать в этом приложении. А приложение не видит текста в этих документах((((
И сайт, созданный в google site тоже не читает((((

### 1/5 — Ни о чем

*2020-12-03, version 1.0.6*

В чем смысл приложения если книги копировать нельзя? Только сайты читать или Википедию . Мусор в общем

### 1/5 — Ridiculous price for something that doesn’t read ebooks

*2020-10-25, version 1.0.6*

I used to use spritz years ago so I was excitto find this app. However, disappointingly I bought the subscription for a year before I realized it only reads websites, not ebooks... what is the point? Also it’s supposed to save your place in the article and it doesn’t even do that. I’ll be contacting the company to get my money back. Also why not just charge a flat fee? Insanity. Don’t buy. There are better, fairly priced alternatives. Huge disappointment from a once awesome app.

### 1/5 — ??

*2026-07-06, version 1.1.0*

on peut même pas mettre de fichiers

### 1/5 — Бесполезно

*2025-11-04, version 1.1.0*

Приложение не имеет доступа к файлам и книгам

### 1/5 — NOOO I will NOT sign in with google through your app

*2022-12-16, version 1.0.7*

Privacy!! Who thought this was a good idea. Let people make their own accounts. We don’t trust apps with our main accounts.

### 1/5 — You made me leave

*2022-02-20*

I met Spritz years ago, when they still had a web app. This app on iOS is not intuitive and it asks for too many clicks in order to accomplish a simple task. Maybe you need to hire some young people in other to make things as fast as current internet users life pace. I feel sorry for you guys, but I am uninstalling it from my phone right now.

### 1/5 — Awesome. Get rid of the red letter.

*2021-11-27, version 1.0.6*

This app is pretty awesome, given the limited access that it has to content. I read a lot on web pages so it’s perfect for me. Not having a Select All option which you can then narrow from either top or bottom is kinda a pain, but w/e, not too bad to deal with. I don’t know why the words are at the very bottom. It’s a little bit annoying because there’s a bunch of empty space above that’s distracting, but that’s also ok I guess. 
Given everything I’ve said, I would give this app a five star if it weren’t for the red letter in the words. It’s torture. It’s super painful when you’re speed reading. I’ve tried other tools without red letters and they’re infinitely better. The red lettering has to go. It has to go. Even with the lack of Select All text option and the disorienting placement of the words, I’d rate it 5 stars. The red letter in each words makes this app 100% deserve a 1 star rating.

### 1/5 — Inexploitable sur iPad

*2021-11-14, version 1.0.6*

Dommage!

### 1/5 — Can’t get it to work.

*2021-10-15, version 1.0.6*

Instructions are to select text and press copy. Nothing happens.

### 1/5 — Used to be great now straight up doesn’t work.

*2021-07-30, version 1.0.6*

I used to use this app for reading technical documents online, now it will not work at all. 
I just use the JavaScript applet now with safari. Too bad I preferred it here

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2021-07-25, version 1.0.6*

No sirve

### 1/5 — Doesn't work AT ALL, used to be great.

*2021-07-13, version 1.0.6*

I can't get it to read ANY Apple news articles. The app says to select and copy to Spritz, but nothing happens and the only way to copy is to select and scroll to end of the article which is very error prone and time consuming. My subscription just auto-renewed so I am out $30 for this now worthless app.

### 5/5 — Updated Review

*2025-01-27, version 1.1.0*

I’m not sure how long it’s been since a review of this product but I just stated using this yesterday (January 26. So far, it does exactly what I need it to do. 

I have ADHD and dyslexia and I’m forever searching for away to make reading doable, fluent, and enjoyable. After working with this for a little, I few it as a brain exercise. My reading speed actually increased outside of its use. I’m not looking for perfection but what works.  There is so much knowledge in written form and I refuse to be held back because of it. Thanks guys.

### 5/5 — Идеальное приложение для увеличения скорости восприятия текста

*2021-10-22, version 1.0.6*

Все, кто поставил плохую оценку - невежды, так как не разобрались, как работает. 

Надо выделить и скопировать текст, затем нажать на иконку в верхнем правом углу и все, поехали! Он не читает любую открытую страницу и это правильно, так как не всегда нужен весь текст. 

Жаль только нельзя свой текст вставить.

### 5/5 — Excellent idea, but needs a little work!

*2021-02-10, version 1.0.6*

The concept of this app is amazing, and it’s main feature of reading at a high speed without moving your eyes works perfectly. The way it is executed is a little lacking though. Mainly because you have to copy all the text that you want to spritz, and that can get tiresome and annoying, not to mention difficult. I do like that even with the free version you can read at a decent speed for everyday use. The idea is one that I love, and I want to use the app all the time but it is missing some key features I feel it should have to improve the execution of the idea, such as...

1. A scanner for articles similar to Apple’s Reader View. If the app could scan an article or webpage for text that is not part of an ad or pop up and spritz it, that would add a level of autonomy to the app experience.

2. A file reader so you could share a pdf, text file, or note to the app so it can spritz it. This would make reading long notes or pdfs way easier since they can be so small.

3. A way to scan a document or paper using the phone’s camera so that the app can detect all the text and spritz it. This feature would be useful for people needed to read small print or an essay quickly.

4. I don’t know if this is possible, but it would be a seamless experience to use spritz if you could activate it from Safari. Imagine a small pop up that appears if you press a button in one of the corners of the screen that asks if you want to spritz the page. This would make using the features effortless and fantastic.

5. Last but not least, there should be a way to send a book from the Book app to spritz. Being able to read a whole book at fast speeds would be awesome. Since there is already a rewind button, you could reread a small section again if you didn’t get it the first time. If this becomes a feature, it would be very nice to be able to bookmark your progress in the book so you can continue reading the book where you left off later.

Even if these features cannot be added, the app is nice and I enjoy using it and I hope it can continue to improve and gain more exposure. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Очень удобно

*2020-11-17, version 1.0.6*

Благодаря этому приложению с легкостью могу читать большие книги на одном дыхании

### 5/5 — Subscription only

*2020-06-15, version 1.0.3*

It’s subscription only. No option to purchase once for a higher cost. PASS

### 5/5 — Awesome. Needs one thing

*2020-06-10, version 1.0.3*

Love it. Have used Spritz since it was a browner extension, and only available in third party type apps. I’ve always loved to read but don’t read very quickly, so having e-reader apps that employed Spritz-like abilities was great. Glad Spritz has its own app, but would love to see at least one key feature add - the ability to copy/paste text in. 

Copy/paste and throwing a PDF or even ebook format import ability would allow this app to replace all the other copycat apps that I still use to access Spritz-like functionality.

Edit: found the copy/paste! Sorry. I had tried it but it didn’t work the first time. Must have had something older on my clipboard. Add the ability to pull in documents and this app is perfection.

### 5/5 — iBooks

*2020-06-05, version 1.0.3*

Any chance you can make it work with iBooks?

### 5/5 — Very cool

*2020-04-17, version 1.0.2*

Really impressed so far, reading is fun and fast, and the red letters are a great idea

### 4/5 — В чем проблема?

*2022-05-12, version 1.0.6*

Здравствуйте! У меня не копируется текст! Вставляю ссылку, выделяю текст, нажимаю copy, и текст копируется! Его можно вставить в браузер или в мессенджер. Но приложение выдает что текст не скопирован. Что делать? При этом вчера оно работало, а сегодня нет.  
 
А так приложение хорошее

### 4/5 — Decent for $20/yr

*2020-11-10, version 1.0.6*

As mentioned in other reviews, works well for non-Java sites. 

There are competitors—albeit only browser extensions for chrome—that allow you to change the size of word chunks, which is an essential part of improving reading ability with one’s peripheral vision. 

If that feature can be added, this would be my go to speed reading app & extension.
