Very useful app, as a dyslexic I am now able to read slightly above the 'standard' reading speed. My reading now feels like it wont be such a limiter.

The only thing that I struggle with is how it skips through text formatting. For example writers often use punctuation differently, whether they're technically right or wrong. Often things like : - ' ' are used to visually enhance the format of a paragraph. I find these go through the app a bit too quickly, it's difficult to determine what the writer is trying to do with it.

This app is pretty genius in my eyes.

Does not work with PDF's and that's the only reason I just payed for it. Worthless JUNK

It needs some work but it's the only one that does Spritz as it should be done. Things that could use improvement:

- Needs to be smarter about what to include by default. Should exclude things like gmail by default - making the user opt-in.

- Would be nice if it worked on pages generated by Evernote Clearly or similar tools. If it can work with these type of tools then a context menu option to read whole page would be great.

- Needs to have a privacy policy that explains ~where~ the text goes and what gets sent over to Spritz or what gets done locally. And how to opt-out of any profiling or such.

- Ability to turn off double-click mode since that effects copying-and-pasting from a ton of pages.

I could see this being much more popular and less of a toy extension with improvement like the above or along those lines. Good first effort and good luck to the author! Cheers, -Ali

Ele funcionou perfeitamente ao ler um pdf e, realmente, consegui ler super rápido usando esta ferramenta.
Ela é melhor para texto corrido e conteúdo não tão complexo. Se você não está familiarizado com o conteúdo que irá ler, a velocidade pode atrapalhar. Porém, para ler um romance ou um livro de fácil leitura/compreensão, ele é ótimo.
