Great! I'll have to see what it can work with. We're still on audiobooks but one day soon we'll need more.

I took their "try it" test and it said I read 11% faster with it, so I installed it on Chrome.

I did the test. It said I read 11% faster. I don't know if I answered the questions correctly but with the first test I remembered reading what it asked. With the second I had no recollection of reading any thing they asked about. So I read faster but with far less comprehension!

Oooooh......this sounds promising.

Thanks for sharing!

I have dyslexia and ADD.

 

I found the text easier to read for the first paragraph, but then I got distracted by it and lost focus on the topic.

 

It said I didn't improve with the reader.  Honestly, I felt that I read faster without it.
