ReadMaxing vs PageKeeper

Read faster. Stay focused. Built for ADHD brains. Readmaxx displays one word at a time using RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation), a research-backed reading method that eliminates eye scanning and keeps your attention locked in. A 2025 Cambridge study found that ADHD adults comprehend 13% better with RSVP vs. traditional reading. readmaxx is built on this research — not productivity hype. HOLD TO READ The entire screen is your touch zone. Hold anywhere to start, lift your finger to pause. Reading becomes a physical, intentional action. TWO READING MODES • Context — the current paragraph appears below the word bar, so you never lose your place • Focus — just the word, nothing else on screen IMPORT ANYTHING EPUB books, PDF files, web articles by URL, or paste any text. SMART TIMING Automatic pauses at sentence ends, and paragraph breaks — backed by research showing these pauses are critical for RSVP comprehension. TACTILE FEEDBACK Feel the text structure through haptics: light taps at sentences, medium pulses at paragraphs, heavy thuds at chapters. READING STATS Track your daily words and minutes with encouraging milestones. NO ACCOUNTS. NO ADS. NO TRACKING. Everything stays on your device. We collect zero data.

"How many books have I actually read this year?" PageKeeper answers that without the spreadsheet. Add what you're reading — title, author, and the printed page range — and log pages as you go. PageKeeper tracks your start and finish dates, your pace, and rolls it all up into the numbers you actually want to know: books this year, pages this year, and how fast you read. HOW IT WORKS • Add a book with its title, author, page range, and genre — stories that start on page 21 count fairly from page 21 • Not ready yet? Park it on your To Be Read list and start it with one tap when you are • Tell PageKeeper the page you're on — it works out how many you read — or log right from the widget • Finish a book and it moves to your Finished shelf, counted toward this year's total • Already partway through something?
