READ YOUR CONTENT • TXT texts • PDF documents with selectable text • Web pages via the integrated browser • Text entered or pasted directly into the app TWO WAYS TO READ With the Standard mode you can focus on one or more words at a time. The Line mode instead keeps more words visible at the same time, highlighting the central one to help you keep your reading point and have more context. You can choose to display 1 to 12 words at a time and adjust the speed from 60 to 1200 words per minute. TRAIN AT YOUR OWN PACE It is not necessary to leave quickly.
