Description from store

FlowReader turns any text into a smooth right-to-left stream so you can read faster without your eyes jumping back and forth across lines. Unlike traditional speed-reading tools that flash one word at a time in place, FlowReader keeps text moving horizontally past a fixed focus line. Your eyes stay still, the words come to you, and your reading speed naturally climbs.

3 ways to load text:
• Paste any block of text directly
• Drop a .txt or .pdf file (PDFs are extracted on the fly, no upload)
• Select text on any webpage, right-click → Read with FlowReader

Built for control:
• 10-step speed slider, from gentle warm-up to rapid skim
• Adjustable font size
• Toggleable focus line for the eyes
• Scrubbable progress bar
• Full keyboard shortcuts

Privacy-first:
Everything happens locally in your browser. FlowReader does not collect, transmit, or store your reading material on any server. PDFs are parsed client-side and never leave your device.

Perfect for:
• Speed-reading articles and research papers
• Reviewing long PDFs without doom-scrolling
• Practising horizontal eye-tracking
• Anyone who wants more reading done in less time
