Nice program. Further development and better support would make it better. My fave setting, e.g., is '70%' - i.e., 70% of what? Come on guys!

This is awesome ! Adding the "Share" function makes reading articles quick and convenient. Would like to see - + speed buttons to fine tune speed while reading in a future update. Great app ! Thanks....

Core function works ok, but clunky features. Would like to see wpm adjuster rather than a percentage speed slider. 100 percent of what? Also would like to see option for millisecond delay for punctuation and long words. And there should be an easier way to repeat what you've just read without having to go back to bookmarks.

I'd been waiting for someone to implement a reader like this on Android. Bought this as soon as I saw it a while ago and love it. I agree with the review suggesting an option to give a pause at appropriate punctuation (fullstop, comma, semi colon).

Works well. Needs a progress bar to allow jumping to different locations in the file.

Good app, but it needs a progress bar of some sort. Bookmarks are ok, but they are not enough. does not pause at commas{,} nor periods{.} LG-999

Opening a whole web page with share link is messy, would be better if you could just select the text you want. Love the horizontal scroll! Thank you!

FATAL FLAW TO WHAT WOULD BE A GREAT APP.
