Readio Speed Reader Extension

Readio Speed Reader is a smarter speed reader, built from scratch with a modern and intuiitive design to give you a pleasant reading experience. We value simplicity and speed and we've made it really easy for you to get started.

Readio attempts to find the correct content on each page automatically, and places a quick access button in the bottom right corner of every readable page. The quick access buttons allow you to read the automatically detected text or open the editor to paste your own text. Of course, you can always select and right click any text on a page to read it.

Everyone has their own preferences, and therefore we've built in multiple options to personalize Readio to your liking. These options include dark/bright themes, word positioning and highlighting, font styles, speed variation, and much more!

We're still in the beta phase, so please feel free to leave feedback if you notice anything wonky or have any feature suggestions. You can also help develop Readio by contributing to our open source repository on Github:

Artem “hArtKor” Kornukhov (ID: 000000ee3f0e0572) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/05/2023 It's a great expansion without a doubt. Two suggestions: 1. Now the window with text opens on the left border of the screen, which is not very convenient, I would like it to open in the centre of the screen, or on the full screen (now it opens on the full screen in height, but not in width). 2. Add the "text continuation" option to the settings to show not only one word, but also the subsequent text.

Illia Kholiavin (ID: 000000d00d57d124) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/23/2023 Wow, this is super. I don't write reviews frequently, but it is amazing extension. I guess that it is the one of the best free of charge extensions so far. It is very helpful for studying also. Thank you!

Antonio (ID: 000000dab6373242) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/28/2022 Without a doubt the best rsvp app on the internet. Works perfectly and looks clean. It would be better if you could add multiple words each time it flashes.

Cindy Bahl (Cindy) (ID: 0000009be9acf12d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/22/2022 Wow. I've tried a few apps and extensions that try to do this. But this extension does it beautifully. One question - "Smart Speed" is an option. It includes a question mark icon "?" that a user would assume provides more explanation on that feature. However, it doesn't do anything. And I tried to find what the difference is between having just this one option on or off, but couldn't. I realize it is still in beta, so tiny bugs are to be expected and I'm overall impressed with it! But could you provide a little insight into this option?
