Speed Read

Speed Reader is a utility designed to enhance reading speed and comprehension by displaying text in a rapid, customisable sequence. Users can input their own text or select from preloaded samples, such as excerpts from classic literature, to practice speed reading. The application offers a range of settings to tailor the experience, including adjustable display speed, text chunking options, and visual themes.
