Beldades Word (ID: 000000e0ad738ad7) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 05/06/2023 muito bom! só falta ter a opção de aumentar a letra e mudar as cores, expandir o quadro de leitura. No mais funciona muito bem.

Eric Leung (ID: 000000767eaf84b8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/11/2022 Fantastic! This is the only speed reading extension that works with kiwi browser for Android (where double tap registers as a 'zoom in' command rather than double click), and it works quite well, although I wish I could select speeds higher than 975 and I wish there were an AMOLED black background. Please update with these features, thanks!

Khadijah Riyad (ID: 000000b2169fffaa) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/04/2021 It's very, very good. Within the first hour of using it I was already increasing the reading speed as I was getting bored with the speed. WOW.

Caspar Leuzinger (ID: 0000008c2ac82e74) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/07/2021 I like this extension - the only thing I would add would be a full screen mode or to be able to enlargen the extension window. Cheers!

May Hideaki (ID: 000000626d7a2d1a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/07/2018 Muito bom. Auxilia muito a leitura. Como melhoria, eu colocaria para ler tb pdf, pois o site quando tem frame de pdf, ou quando abre pdf no navegador, ele não reconhece nada.
