About this app

Read up to 3x faster in as little as 2 weeks, about 10 minutes a day. Acceleread is a daily speed reading trainer that builds a real skill you keep in every book, email, PDF and exam.

Most apps summarize books for you. Acceleread does the opposite — it trains YOU to read faster, so the skill goes with you everywhere and never leaves.

SIX TRAINING TOOLS
• Word Flash — flashes one word at a time so your eyes stop backtracking and get paced faster
• Schulte Table — a number-grid drill that widens your visual span and cuts fixations
• Hopscotch — an eye-movement drill that trains your eyes to move forward, not back
• Column Highlighter — guides your eyes down the page in columns to read faster
• Diamond Highlighter — highlights key phrases to sharpen focus and cut distraction
• Sight Stretcher — widens your peripheral vision so you take in more per glance

WHAT ELSE YOU GET
• Free reading-speed test — measure your words per minute and comprehension, then watch both climb
• Gamified training course — a level path with daily goals, streaks and reminders that make practice stick
• Comprehension checks — so faster speed never costs understanding
• Progress tracking — WPM over time, comprehension scores and milestones
• Built-in library and distraction-free reader — practise on real books, curated for you

HOW IT WORKS
Take the WPM test to get your baseline, follow a personalized plan, and train about 10 minutes a day. Small daily reps and a streak turn faster reading into a habit that sticks.

THE SCIENCE
Word Flash pacing, eye-movement drills and Schulte tables target the habits that slow readers down — backtracking, subvocalizing and a narrow focus span (progress measured by in-app assessments).

WHO IT'S FOR
Students and exam prep, busy professionals, focus-minded readers, English learners (ESL), and lifelong readers with a to-read pile.

Free to start. Cancel anytime. Available in 25 languages.

Take the free reading test and see your speed today.
