I would contest this. Scanning our eyes and being able to look back to previous words as we read is an important part of comprehension and is something that physically cannot be done with an app like spreeder.
Not mention, scanning words is much more natural for me!
- carrotleads 12y agoYes. Scanning is needed but not for all use cases. If you add user interaction, then spreeder could add a sideways pop up widget that showed the whole paragraph with highlighted word. That solves the problem of reading quick as well as pausing and scanning back. My concern was that your app didn't help me read quick. Maybe it was the issues you mentioned. Are you sure you can read it quick if the app is optimised?
- hudbuddy 12y agoI've been a horribly slow reader my whole life, but more than that I'm just easily distracted. I find with Artiklur i can read at about 400wpm average for 20+ minutes with equal comprehension. I really encourage you to give it a try (I think I've fixed the issues--just make sure auto scrolling is off if it doesn't work on your device). I'm not trying to sell anything here, I just took the time to clean it up so other people could try it too. I really love it. Also, very interesting point about spreeder. I'm not sure it would feel the same, but i'd like to see it
