"If there is a greater crime than burning books, it is not reading them..." Spreader aims to protect you and your loved ones from this disgraceful crime, with this Joseph Brodsky's quote. Spreader allows you to finish five books instead of one. It is simple and cleanly designed to increase your reading speed by keeping your reading speed constantly updated. Adjust your reading speed to suit you with Spreader, which offers a user-friendly convenience experience. Finish a book from your seat while spending time on public transportation, at a cafe or in the park! For book lovers, campus students and people who want to memorize, you can scan the content from the camera and scan the books page by page in any content language and read a lot of books in dark mode, or you can scan the lecture notes and repeat them 5 times faster during the exam time... Spreader adds the pages you scan with the camera to your permanent content list and eliminates the excuse of "I forgot my book or note at home" with the option of fast reading afterwards! By copy/pasting content from the Internet or eBooks, Spreader offers speed reading support in all languages around the world, is completely free and contains no ads! -Spreader: Speed-Reader: Speed Reading App
