SwiftRead is a speed reading and text-to-speech app that helps you finish the reading you keep putting off. Read articles, PDFs, ePubs, and books from Kindle Cloud Reader and Libby up to 3X faster, or have them read aloud with the words highlighted as you listen.

All features included free. A few have daily allowances.

👁️ READ FASTER AND STAY FOCUSED
Three reading modes guide your eyes through the text, so you keep your place and your pace:
• Focus shows a few words at a time in one spot, so your eyes stop traveling across lines and you can raise the speed.
• Flow keeps the full page visible and moves a highlight through it, so you keep your place and the context around it.
• Spotlight hides the surrounding text so the words you're reading stand out.
Set your own fonts, colors, spacing, and Reading Speed. Switch modes anytime and settle where you read faster but still follow.

🎧 LISTEN WHILE YOU READ
Text-to-speech reads aloud with synced word highlighting in all three modes, so you can keep going when your eyes are tired. For many people, seeing and hearing the words together helps them stick.

📄 BRING EVERYTHING YOU READ INTO ONE PLACE
• PDF and ePub files from your device, up to 25 MB
• Web articles, links, and pasted text
• Books open in Kindle Cloud Reader and Libby, from Open > Supported sources
• Posts and threads on X: reply with @SwiftReadIt and SwiftRead sends you a reader link
Scanned PDFs take longer because the text on each page has to be recognized first.

🔄 PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF, ON ANY DEVICE
One account on Android, iOS, the web app at app.swiftread.com, and a browser extension for Chrome and Edge. Sign in with the same account and your Library and reading progress follow you.

💳 PRICING
All features included free. A few have daily allowances. Every reading mode, text-to-speech, PDF and ePub import, Kindle Cloud Reader, Libby, and sync are included on a free account. Text-to-speech and premium pages have a daily allowance. Kindle Cloud Reader and Libby use premium pages. Reading a PDF with SwiftRead in the browser does not use premium pages when every page already has selectable text and you do not save it to your Library. If you save it to your Library or import it from your device, it can use premium pages. If any page is scanned, it can use them too. SwiftRead PRO is a subscription with unlimited text-to-speech and unlimited premium pages, so you never wait for an allowance to reset. Payment charged to your Google account at confirmation. Cancel anytime in your Google Play subscriptions.

📚 PERFECT FOR
• Finishing a long PDF before a meeting
• Getting through research papers for class
• Reading in a language you're learning, with text-to-speech so you hear the words too
• Finally completing that ebook you started
