About this app

Speed read is the new method of reading books.
Speed reading allows the user to spritz through a book a lot quicker than traditional methods, by allowing for words per minute (WPM) control with additional fine-tuning for word length, comma / period delays.
Also supports TTS (Text-To-Speech) feature which allows for the user to listen to the book instead.

Currently supports PDF, EPUB, DOCX, TXT, MOBI, AZW, FB2, PRC and AZW3 file formats.
Users can also copy / paste books from other sources, like web-sites.
Books can also be added directly from project Gutenberg.org using the "Search" option.

Supports different themes for night and regular reading.

Volume up / down controls playback speed.

Ratings and reviews

I like that you can load multiple books and have options for dark mode. Compared to Reedy, the word alignment isn't as easy on the eye and is stuck at top of screen vs middle of screen. Maybe an option to move things to the middle if paragraph view hidden? Reedy is also nicer in that you can double tap anywhere to pause and start. Advantage of this over Reedy is it says it can load pdfs

Honestly, i think this app is one of the most easy to use speed readers I've seen! But sadly i have a complaint. The app formats the original file and makes it "pure" text. But it bugs me as my file has two columns of text on each page and the app formats them weirldly, changing their order. But it works excellent with regular, one-columned files! I hope you fix that issue in the future, thanks!

I searched for ages for an app that would allow me to read an ebook quickly by showing one word at a time and this app is exactly what I've been looking for. Good stuff developers. One thing I thought of that would improve it would be changing the default settings to something better, because I had to tweak it a bit before it was perfect. I think adding a comma and period delay (200 and 400ms), a slightly smaller font (eg 32) and a small word length delay (20ms) would be better.
