Read 2x faster — and actually remember what you read. EyzRead is a speed reading trainer built around the RSVP method: words appear one at a time at a fixed point, so your eyes stop jumping across the page and your brain processes text in a steady stream. Most people double their reading speed within two weeks of short daily practice. WHY EYZREAD IS DIFFERENT • Focus letter (ORP): every word is aligned on its optimal recognition point and the focus letter is highlighted, just like Spritz-style readers. • Word groups: read 1, 2 or 3 words at a time as your skill grows. • Smart Speed: the reader nudges your WPM up while you read smoothly and eases off when you pause or rewind. • Comprehension quiz: after each session, a short quiz checks what you understood. Your Effective WPM = speed × comprehension, so you train real reading, not just fast scrolling. READ ANYTHING • Import EPUB and PDF books. • Share an article from Safari or any app and read it instantly. • Paste text from the clipboard. • Your progress in every book is saved automatically, with a “time left at your pace” estimate. TRAIN YOUR EYES AND BRAIN • Daily Training: a ready-made 5-minute session — one eye exercise, one Schulte table and 2 minutes of speed reading. • Schulte tables: 3×3 to 5×5 and the colored Gorbov variant to expand your peripheral vision. • Eye exercises: focus shifting, figure eight, blink training, palming and more. • Streaks with streak freezes, so one busy day doesn’t erase your progress. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Best WPM, best Effective WPM, total words and reading time. • Weekly speed chart and a monthly training heatmap. • Badges for milestones like your first session, 400+ WPM, 90%+ comprehension and a 30-day streak. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up. Everything stays on your device. • Works offline. Free users can read up to 250 words per day. EyzRead Premium removes the limit and unlocks detailed statistics. Choose a weekly, monthly, yearly or one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account.
