Dr Chris Butcher (ID: 00000008f064aa58) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 08/01/2023 I have been using Spreeder since 2019 and it's great to see all the improvements since then. This Spreeder Chrome plugin is by far the most useful addition. I often have to read long journal articles and research for my work and I can now do this in half the time. I simply save them using the chrome button, then read them later in the app

Tammi (ID: 000000a91515361a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/11/2023 I recently started using Save with Spreeder, and it's already increased my focus and speed when reading articles. Adding the extension was simple, and using it was very straightforward. One of the things I love is being able to save all my articles to my Spreeder account. It's becoming a must-have tool for my daily online reading. The best part is the reading speed adjustment feature. I definitely recommend it, and think it would be a huge benefit to both adults and children.

Elyan Llorin (ID: 0000006941303efd) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/07/2023 Save to Spreeder is a handy tool for anyone looking to read faster and efficiently. I appreciate the easy way of saving articles to my Spreeder account directly from Chrome. I thought I need to purchase a license, but I happen to create a free account - although the other courses needs to be upgraded. I'll check back if I'll need the reast of the courses. The reading speed adjustment is effective in challenging myself to read faster and improve my skills. The focus mode is a nice touch, helping me stay focused on the text. However, I would love to see additional features like offline reading and synchronization across devices in future updates (or is this already available?).
