Flitread

About

Flitread displays your text one phrase at a time, right where you're already looking. Your eyes stop scanning and just read. It's RSVP: Rapid Serial Visual Presentation. Instead of a page you skim across, one chunk at a time appears in the same spot, with each word's optimal recognition point bolded so you catch it without having to work at it. Flow Mode breaks text into phrase-sized chunks instead of a fixed word count, so a two-word phrase and a six-word one still take the same beat to read. Speed is a slider, not a fixed setting: start slow, work up to genuinely fast. Rewind or jump to any position when you lose your place, no re-reading from scratch. Point it at whatever you're actually trying to get through: • EPUB books • PDFs • Word documents (.docx) • Plain text and HTML • Anything pasted from your clipboard • A URL - it pulls the article text and leaves the ads and nav behind You can also share straight into Flitread from Safari, Files, or any app's share sheet. There's a reading streak and a daily word goal if that kind of thing keeps you going, and they're easy to ignore if it doesn't. Everything you import stays on your phone. No account, no server, nothing syncing anywhere. No subscription, nothing renewing in the background and no ads.
