Readflow turns any PDF, EPUB, or pasted text into a podcast you can listen to anywhere — or a speed reading session that gets you through documents 3x faster than normal reading. TURN ANY PDF INTO A PODCAST Import a PDF, tap play, and Readflow converts it into clear, natural-sounding audio. Listen to research papers, reports, articles, or ebooks while you commute, exercise, or cook. No more being chained to a screen. READ ANYTHING 3X FASTER RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) shows you one word at a time at the centre of your screen. Eliminate wasted eye movement, eliminate subvocalisation, and read at up to 800 words per minute. The Optimal Recognition Point (ORP) highlights the scientifically ideal letter of each word so your brain locks on instantly. PASTE ANYTHING, READ INSTANTLY The biggest reason people abandon reading apps is friction. Readflow removes it. Copy any text — a tweet, an article, a web page — and Readflow opens it ready to read. No imports, no file management. Just paste and go. PHOTOGRAPH ANY TEXT, READ IT INSTANTLY Point your camera at a page, a whiteboard, a sign, or any printed text — Readflow scans it with OCR and turns it into a reading session in seconds. You can also import a photo from your camera roll. No typing, no copying. Just aim, scan, read. KEY FEATURES - PDF to podcast: convert any PDF into audio at the tap of a button - RSVP speed reading at up to 800 WPM - EPUB import and speed reading - Text-to-speech (TTS) with adjustable playback speed (0.5x–2x) - Clipboard paste via share extension or readflow://paste deep link - Camera scan: photograph any text and read it instantly with OCR - Image import: upload a photo from your camera roll and extract the text - ORP highlighting for maximum word recognition speed - Switch between RSVP and audio mid-session - Progress tracking with percentage and time remaining - Streaks, XP, badges, and daily reading goals to build a reading habit - Adjustable speed from 100 to 800 WPM PERFECT FOR - Students who need to get through reading lists faster - Professionals staying on top of reports, memos, and research - Anyone who learns better by listening than reading - Commuters who want to turn travel time into reading time - People with dyslexia or visual fatigue who find audio easier Download Readflow and turn everything you need to read into something you can listen to — or blaze through at three times the speed.
