Description
Read any article or selected text one word at a time at up to 1000 wpm. Fully local, no sign-in, no data collected. Long articles are slow to get through when your eyes have to jump from word to word and line to line. Speed Reader shows the text one word at a time, in a fixed spot, so your eyes stay still and you read faster. Select some text and start, or just run it on the page and it finds the main article for you. Each word is aligned on its Optimal Recognition Point — the letter your eye naturally lands on — highlighted in red, so words snap into focus. It slows down slightly at commas and full stops so the rhythm feels natural. Control it with the buttons or the keyboard: space to play or pause, arrows to step and to change speed, Esc to close. Everything runs on your device. No account, no upload, nothing tracked. How to use 1. Optionally select the text you want to read. 2. Click the toolbar button, press Alt+Shift+R, or right-click and choose "Speed read selection". 3. Use space to play or pause, the arrow keys to step and change speed, and Esc to close. Features • One word at a time, centred on its Optimal Recognition Point for less eye movement. • Reads your selection, or auto-detects the main article on the page. • Adjustable speed from 100 to 1000 words per minute, remembered for next time. • Natural pauses at punctuation; step forward and back at any point. • Full keyboard control — space, arrows, and Esc.
