Read through classic novels at up to 1000 words per minute using the advanced speed reading technique called rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP). It's like reading on a really fast treadmill.

Comes pre-loaded with a handful of classic novels available in the public domain.

Reviews

Clean, and quickly improving

Since the Spritz engine was released I've downloaded a handful of apps using the RSVP reading method. By far my favorite is SprintReader. The interface is simple and clean, no frills to distract you When I first downloaded it the resolution of available speeds was horrid...a jump of 200 each time! Then I noticed the "Feedback" button. It lets you send an email straight to the developer to give suggestions. I sent in my 2¢, and got a reply within a day that he was already working on the WPM gradient. A few days laster, there's an update and there it is! I'd also like to be able to import eBooks, but I'm sure that function is on the horizon. I'd give this 3 stars because of its limits, but I'm adding one because of the developer's responsiveness. I can see this app going great places quickly!

Ingenious!

Wonderful app that will greatly speed up my reading. I'm a lover of the classics so this works perfectly. Just a couple of suggestions for the next version: 1. Ability to download additional texts. 2. I find myself getting left behind occasionally when there is an unfamiliar word like the name of foreign city. If there was a setting that would tell the program to have a short pause after one of these words that would be pretty nice. Wonderful app!

Great app but...

This is a great app and I think it will deserve 5 stars once a user can read whatever they want. Keep tweeting but overall the app is good; it's just in an early development stage.

Interesting but...

Would like to see the following things: 1. Finer control of WPM, then by 200WPM increments. 2. The ability to open text files (or books, or PDFs or similar) in the app. 3. That the app would remember where in the file it was when the app was closed. 4. The ability to navigate between chapters and paragraphs.

Good start

Aside from the obvious recommendations like being able to load an ePub. I think that instead if having a rewind button or along with the button, if one could click and drag their placement in the progress bar would be great - similar to what one can do with audio.

Great speed reading app!

Great app for us iPhone users who can't use Spritz! Thank you! Now my brain hurts from reading at 600wpm.

Loads of potential

I have always had trouble tracking properly, fixating, and the all too dreadful vocalization. I will use it 15 -20 minutes every day. It would be nice if the reader could have a little more control over the speed, font size and perhaps background color. Thank you for this product

Wow...!

I Love It, I saw the demonstration on TV how this app works. I was amazed by the results, I believe this app can really improve my speech with faster reading.
