Overview
SReader is a Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) reader. Instead of moving your eyes across a page, words flash one at a time at a single focal point. Whether RSVP actually makes you a faster reader is debatable; either way, it’s a fun way to chew through long articles.
Features

How It Works
Each word is positioned with its “optimal recognition point” (the letter your eye naturally lands on) aligned to a fixed marker on screen. Your gaze stays put while the words come to you.
