— BIONIC READING AND SPEED READING APP FOR FOCUS — Are you a slow reader? Do you struggle to maintain focus, constantly slipping back to the same line? ReadEasy is the bionic reading companion designed to help you read faster, boost your focus, and improve text comprehension. Whether you are dealing with a reading problem, ADHD, or dyslexia, this app transforms any text into an easy-to-read format using bionic fonts. — WHAT ARE BIONIC FONTS? — The bionic reading method works by highlighting the beginning of each word in bold. These bold first letters pull your eyes forward, creating natural fixation points. Your brain automatically completes the rest of the word. You read it once, without stalling, and without starting over. This scientifically inspired approach helps train your brain to process text at speed. You can easily read x2 faster with significantly less mental effort. — ADHD FONT AND DYSLEXIA SUPPORT — The app is made for neurodivergent brains. If you have attention issues, our app reduces the feeling of being overwhelmed. For dyslexic adults and kids, the customized bionic text acts as a powerful accessibility tool. By anchoring your eyes to the bolded letters, it prevents words from jumping around the page. It is a proven way to help dyslexic users read with confidence and speed. — CUSTOMIZE YOUR READING EXPERIENCE — Every reader is different. ReadEasy app gives you full control over how you view your text to solve any reading problem: • Bionic Intensity: Choose between Light, Medium, or Strong bolding to match your comfort level. • Font Selection & Text Size: Switch between highly readable fonts like SF Pro and SF Mono and adjust the font size. • Color Themes: Reduce eye strain with White, Sepia, Gray, or pure Black dark mode backgrounds. — IMPORT, SCAN AND BROWSER INTEGRATION — Getting text into the app is seamless. Process articles, documents, and books faster: • Save Articles from Safari: You do not need to copy text manually. Send any article straight from your mobile browser to the app in one tap. • Scan Text: Use your camera to scan physical book pages, documents, or notes. • Dictate and Paste: Add text using your voice or paste from your clipboard. • Import Files: Bring in your long texts and let the bionic reading engine do the rest. — TEXT TO SPEECH AND AUDIO READER — Eyes tired from staring at the screen? Listen to your articles instead with a powerful Text-to-Speech engine that reads aloud offline. No internet is needed. Tap the speaker icon, and the app will dictate the text to you. Pause, resume, and follow along as the words are highlighted, providing a dual visual and auditory learning experience to boost comprehension. — ORGANIZE YOUR LIBRARY — Keep your collection of reading materials organized: • Create Custom Folders: Sort your articles into folders for work, school, etc. • Pin and Archive: Keep important texts at the top of your screen or archive finished documents to declutter. — WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE — The app works offline and privately. Read on an airplane, during a commute, or in remote areas: • No Account Required: Start using the bionic fonts without giving up personal data. • Zero Ads: No distracting pop-ups or banners, zero interruptions. — WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM READEASY? — • Students & professionals needing to process long texts without loosing focus. • Kids and adults with ADHD looking for a tool to maintain focus and stop mind-wandering. • Dyslexic individuals seeking a more accessible, problem-free way to consume written content. • Anyone who wants to train their brain to absorb more information in less time.

About

Bionic Reading® Fonts

Read full description

Bionic Reading® Fonts is the upgrade for your eyes – as a real font, installed directly on your iPhone and iPad. The patented Bionic Reading® method visually emphasizes words, so your eyes find orientation faster. Once installed, use it in any app that offers its own font picker. ONE SUBSCRIPTION, ALL YOUR DEVICES. Your subscription is tied to your Apple ID, not to a single device. Once subscribed, install the Bionic Reading® Fonts on iPhone and iPad – at no extra cost. THREE PACKAGES. • Bionic Reading®: Sans Serif, Fixation 1–5, 10 styles • Bionic Reading® Serif: Serif, Fixation 1–5, 10 styles • Bionic Reading® Bundle: Both families, Fixation 1–5, 20 styles WHERE THE BIONIC READING® FONTS WORK. Once installed, your Bionic Reading® Fonts appear system-wide under Settings→ General→ Fonts→ My Fonts. You can use them in any app that offers its own font picker. On iPhone and iPad: • Apple Pages, Keynote, Numbers • GoodNotes • Procreate (on iPhone: Procreate Pocket) • and many more. Additionally on iPad: • Affinity Designer, Photo, Publisher • Final Cut Pro for iPad • and many more. Whether an app supports custom fonts is always up to that app. WHERE THE BIONIC READING® FONTS DON’T WORK. Apple doesn’t allow custom fonts everywhere. They definitely don’t work in: the system interface (Home Screen, Settings), Apple Notes, Messages/iMessage, Safari, Apple Books, or virtually all social media and messenger apps such as Instagram, TikTok, or WhatsApp – these apps always use their own, fixed fonts. Currently, they also don’t work in Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint, since these apps don’t support custom fonts – on iPhone and iPad alike. WHO IS THE APP FOR? For everyone who reads and writes a lot – on iPhone as well as iPad. For school, university, work, and creative projects in apps like Pages, GoodNotes, or Procreate. Many people with ADHD, dyslexia, or other reading difficulties report that Bionic Reading® helps them grasp and understand content faster. Bionic Reading® is not a medical product and does not replace diagnosis or therapy. But for many people, it can be a real “Game Changer” in everyday life. MORE POSSIBILITIES ON MAC. On the Mac, Bionic Reading® opens up even more possibilities – as a classic desktop font, usable in virtually any program. The Bionic Reading® Fonts for Mac are a separate product, available directly at bionic-reading.com. ALSO FOR CHAT AND SOCIAL MEDIA APPS. If you’d like to use Bionic Reading® in chat and social media apps specifically, we recommend our app “Bionic Reading® Font Keyboard” (available separately on the App Store) – it works on a different principle and writes Bionic Reading® directly in virtually any typing app. A FAIR SUBSCRIPTION FOR ALL FEATURES. With your subscription, you get full access to install the Bionic Reading® Fonts included in your chosen package. Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually at the selected rate. You’re supporting not just an app, but the idea of making reading easier, more beautiful, and more accessible. Terms of Use: https://bionic-reading.com/bionic-reading-font-software-license-agreement/ TYPOGRAPHY. DESIGN. SWITZERLAND. Bionic Reading® comes from Switzerland. With over 30 years of typography experience, we know that small details make a big difference: how a word looks, where the eye stops, and how quickly text is understood. That is exactly why Bionic Reading® was developed. INTERNATIONAL AWARDS FOR BIONIC READING®. Bionic Reading® is a patented method and has received international awards. • German Innovation Award 2023: Gold (highest distinction) • German Design Award 2023: Gold (highest distinction) The one and only from Switzerland is a “Life Changer” for Lisa, a “Game Changer” for Tommy and “Absolutely Mind Blowing” for Kelly.
