Read up to 3x faster in as little as 2 weeks, about 10 minutes a day. Acceleread is a daily speed-reading trainer that builds a real skill you keep in every book, email, PDF and exam.
Most reading apps summarize books FOR you. Acceleread does the opposite: it trains YOU to read faster, so the skill goes with you everywhere.
SIX TRAINING TOOLS
• Word Flash — flashes one word at a time so your eyes stop backtracking and get paced faster
• Schulte Table — a number-grid drill that widens your visual span and cuts fixations
• Hopscotch — an eye-movement drill that trains your eyes to move forward, not back
• Column Highlighter — guides your eyes down the page in columns to read faster
• Diamond Highlighter — highlights key phrases to sharpen focus and cut distraction
• Sight Stretcher — widens your peripheral vision so you take in more per glance
WHAT ELSE YOU GET
• Free reading-speed test — measure your words per minute and comprehension, then watch both climb
• Gamified training course — a level path with daily goals, streaks and reminders that make practice stick
• Comprehension checks — so speed never costs understanding
• Progress tracking — WPM over time, comprehension scores and milestones
• Built-in library and distraction-free reader — practise on real books, curated for you
HOW IT WORKS
Take the WPM test, get a personalized plan, then train about 10 minutes a day. Small daily reps build a faster reading habit that lasts.
THE SCIENCE
Word Flash pacing, eye-movement drills and Schulte tables target the habits that slow you down — backtracking, subvocalizing and narrow focus (progress measured by in-app assessments).
WHO IT'S FOR
Students and exam prep, busy professionals, focus-minded readers, English learners, and anyone with a stack of books they never finish.
Free to start. Cancel anytime. Available in 25 languages.
