About

Readlio

Features
Read full description

Most speed-reading apps hand you an empty box and a stopwatch. Readlio comes with 70,000+ free books and every Wikipedia article plus six training games, two reading modes, and a comprehension check that tells you whether you actually understood what you just sped through. READING FAST IS EASY. REMEMBERING IT IS THE HARD PART. Classic RSVP flashes one word at a time at a fixed focal point. It's fast but research shows that removing your ability to glance back hurts comprehension. So Readlio gives you a second mode. Highlight Flow keeps the entire text on the page while a highlight travels through it at your chosen speed. Slightly slower, dramatically better recall, and you can always look back at the sentence you just passed. Switch between them any time. Your place is kept. SOMETHING TO READ, INCLUDED • 70,000+ public domain books from Project G • Every Wikipedia article, in five languages • Import your own PDF, EPUB, DOCX or TXT • Paste text or load any web article • Everything you open is cached for offline TRAIN, DON'T JUST MEASURE • Schulte tables for peripheral vision • Peripheral vision, chunking and eye-tracki • Anti-subvocalization practice • Memory and recall games • A 60-second warm-up before every session • Adaptive speed that adjusts your WPM based BUILT TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK • Daily reading goal with a gentle reminder only on days you haven't hit it • Streaks, with a weekly streak freeze so onth • 17 achievements, XP and levels • Weekly league tiers • Full statistics: words, time, speed, and progress per document MADE FOR EVERY READER • Dyslexia mode with Open Dyslexic • Adjustable letter spacing and line spacing • High contrast option • 28 reading fonts, or import your own • 12 reading themes • Read-aloud with the iOS voice of your choice • Full app in English, Türkçe, Español, Deut YOUR READING IS YOURS No account.
