Read faster and more easily with our digital reading technology, which has has won awards from Stanford and United Nations! Here's how it works: instead of using plain black text, we display text using eye-guiding color gradients. These gradients flow from the end of one line to the beginning of the next, so that when you move your eyes from right to left, they're automatically drawn to the appropriate line. Vision, literacy, and medical experts agree that BeeLine Reader improves reading speed and reading ability for readers of all ages and skill levels. It is particularly helpful for readers with dyslexia, ADD, or vision impairments—some readers are able to read over 50% faster with BeeLine.

Wish you could have more time? Now you can! We save people just like you over 1 hour per day using Flexblocks! Flexblocks is an auto-scheduling app designed to optimize your day so you waste less time procrastinating. Here's how it works: When you have something to get done with a start and end date it goes in your calendar, and you're extremely likely to complete it, but tasks that have deadlines like your annoying math homework or physics lab don't, hence they go on to-do lists. The reason your math homework ends up being done right before the deadline is because you brain needs to see time set aside.. Introducing Flexblocks! Flexblocks fixes this problem by instantly scheduling timeblocks for you to complete these tasks before the deadline. Unlike any other apps, we learn what times work best for you to create the perfect schedule everytime! ------------------------------- We would love to hear feedback about the app. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out via any of the channels below: Instagram: @flexblocks Email: admin@flexblocks.app Notes: At present, all of our plans are paid because as a business we need to be able to pay the team to continue adding incredible features to improve your experience.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Flexblocks at 100% against BeeLine Reader's 38%. Flexblocks also leads on price (Free vs $4.99) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 months). BeeLine Reader's advantage is rating (2.3 vs 1.0) and ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Flexblocks is free to download; BeeLine Reader costs $4.99 up front. BeeLine Reader sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Flexblocks sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
BeeLine Reader holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BeeLine Reader has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of BeeLine Reader's written reviews are positive against 100% of Flexblocks's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BeeLine Reader ships an update every 5 months, Flexblocks every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and June 7, 2026 respectively.
