Read Faster. Absorb More. Reedit Changes Everything. Reedit transforms the way you consume text using Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) — a scientifically-backed speed reading technique that displays words one at a time in a fixed position on your screen. The Problem with Traditional Reading When you read the traditional way, your eyes constantly jump across the page — moving from word to word, line to line. This eye movement, called saccading, is the single biggest bottleneck slowing down your reading speed. Your brain can process information far faster than your eyes can physically move. The RSVP Solution Reedit eliminates this bottleneck entirely. Instead of your eyes chasing words, words come to you. Each word appears in the same spot, allowing your eyes to stay perfectly still while your brain does what it does best — absorbing information at incredible speeds. Why Reedit? • Read 2-3x Faster — Most people read around 200-250 words per minute. With RSVP, you can comfortably reach 400-600 WPM or more with practice. • Better Focus — One word at a time means fewer distractions. No more losing your place or re-reading paragraphs. • Less Eye Strain — Your eyes stay relaxed in a fixed position, reducing fatigue during long reading sessions. • Train Your Brain — Start at your comfortable pace and gradually increase speed as your comprehension adapts. Perfect For: • Articles and news content • Books and long-form writing • Study materials and research papers • Emails and documents • Anything you need to read faster How It Works Simply paste or import your text into Reedit, set your preferred reading speed, and tap play. Words flow to you one at a time at your chosen pace. Pause anytime, adjust speed on the fly, and pick up right where you left off. Your Reading, Reimagined Whether you're a student trying to get through coursework, a professional staying on top of industry reading, or simply someone who wants to read more books in less time — Reedit gives you the tools to consume text content more efficiently than ever before. Download Reedit today and discover what speed reading really feels like.

iReadr helps you read everything faster — books, articles, PDFs, EPUBs, web pages, and documents. It's a speed reading app that displays text one word at a time at a fixed point on screen, a proven technique called RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) that eliminates eye movement so your brain can focus purely on comprehension. HOW IT WORKS Traditional reading requires your eyes to scan across lines, jump between paragraphs, and backtrack when you lose your place. This limits most people to 200-250 words per minute. iReadr removes these bottlenecks: - Words appear one at a time in a fixed position on screen - The Optimal Recognition Point (ORP) is highlighted — the natural fixation point where your eye focuses in each word - Adaptive timing gives longer words and punctuation extra display time for natural pacing - Adjustable speed from 100 to 1,000 WPM with quick presets With regular practice, readers comfortably reach 400-600+ WPM while maintaining comprehension.
