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. Find out how much it will help you by taking the BeeLine Reading Challenge on our website: www.BeeLineReader.com. Included app functionality: Read with BeeLine in Safari using our BeeLine Action Extension; save articles for later using the BeeLine Share Extension; and browse the web with BeeLine on select popular websites (AP News, Reuters, and Medium.com) within the BeeLine app. Never used an extension before?

Some things in life don't fit on a calendar. Your driving license expires in 14 months. The internet contract renews in March. That annual insurance payment is coming up. The passport needs renewal before your trip next year. These aren't meetings. They aren't appointments. They're the quiet deadlines that slip through the cracks — until it's too late. TimeFlow puts your life on a timeline. Every deadline appears as a colored pipe on an infinite scrollable timeline. Pinch to zoom between days, months, and years. See everything at a glance — what's due this week, what's coming in six months, what you handled last year. Why TimeFlow instead of a calendar? Calendars are built for days and weeks. TimeFlow is built for the big picture. Zoom out to see your entire year. Zoom in when a deadline approaches. Your life admin, visualized. Features: - Infinite scrollable timeline — past and future, no limits - Three zoom levels — switch between days, months, and years with a pinch - Color-coded categories — organize by type (Personal, Finance, Health, Documents) - Multiple reminders — set alerts days, weeks, or months in advance - Overdue tracking — dedicated tab shows what needs attention now - Auto-dismiss — automatically clear past events on app launch - List view — switch to a grouped list when you need a quick overview - Quick search — find any event instantly by title, notes, or category - Recurring events — annual renewals, monthly payments, set once and forget - Home screen widgets — see upcoming deadlines without opening the app - Import & export — bring events from your calendar or share as ICS files - Dark mode — easy on the eyes, day or night - Hebrew & English — full RTL support Perfect for tracking: - License and passport renewals - Insurance and subscription payments - Contract end dates and renewal windows - Warranty expirations - Medical checkups and vaccination schedules - Tax deadlines and financial milestones - Vehicle inspections and maintenance - Membership renewals - Any deadline that matters but doesn't belong on a daily calendar Your life has more structure than a calendar can show.
