QuickReader - Speed Reading 앱 리뷰

Ever since I tested out the clear theme which allows you to see the camera view behind text the app simply will not stop crashing. I can’t choose another theme or access certain menus of the app without an inevitable crash.

No pdf or webpage support, wasted $5

Supposedly I took a test. Read a Vonnegut short story. Test? Uh, no.

Good app but still won’t accept new libraries to download from.

I find the navigation a bit clunky. It is easy to accidentally go to the next page. I also could not find a way to set the place where the speed reader marker should be if I was in the middle of a page. The pages also started getting out of order. If I paged forward and back multiple times this would go away.

Useless to me without being able to use the books I bought on Kindle. Unless there is something I have not learned.

“Add a catalog?” Of what? How? ”Fully customizable” except the fact that you can’t read any book you’d like. Only a handful of classics and a bunch of no name authors that are free all over the internet. It’s the save 30 books that float around for $3 at Barnes and noble at the entrance and are free on all the book sites online. Disappointed, don’t get duped like I did.

The eye training and pacing routines get the job done. My reading speed went up more than 250% — in less than a year!

good app

I just bought this app. The already linked free catalogs is vast enough to read the rest of my life. I really bought this to read my Kindle books. Right after the app recognizes the book in Kindle’s clipboard and I tap on it to start reading it, it crashes.

In an age devoted to self adulation wherein the inconveinient knowledge of the past is yet again obliterated or silenced by the chitterings of popular dunces given over to political correction and control, thank you for preserving and making readily available the priceless lessons, thoughts and laughter of past generations of both wisdom and folly.

This is the bomb. I’m not exaggerating!! You have access to every book you could ever dream of reading and you have the reading guides that focus your eyes. I went through Jane Eyre in two sittings.

Better than Kindle. Largest selection of free books. Easily navigated interface. Download what you want and have something great to read anytime, anywhere.

This app does not give you any training exercises other than books filled with information that "they" want you to read. In this way they can fill your mind with "whatever" "they" "want" under the guise of: "You're 'learning' how to 'read' faster". In other words, it seems like subliminal messaging similar to the patheticness you will find in the movie The Matrix. To expose your mind to the "unknown" is potentially "dangerous".

This app seems to be abandoned. Cannot add catalog URL from Calibre Library. It does not give any other option to add entire books.

Genial 👍🏻

I was skeptical at first, but once I allowed myself to buy into the idea that I can improve my speed of reading, it happened! This app definitely works when one utilizes discipline and practice with this Quick Read app. Quick tip: try not to let your thoughts wonder or have distractions while reading because it effects the results of the speed test. 😉

As an English teacher, I hold that this is bar non the best reading software I have ever used. The selection of FREE classic literature is unrivaled and its guidance on speed-reading is second to none!

It’s great to have direct access to so many great books to apply this app to. However, for the purpose of practicing and getting faster at reading, some of them are a bit tricky (eg Uncle Tom’s Cabin uses dialect that is hard to read quickly, and the Art of War’s formatting is messed up so as to not be practical). Lastly, the guide bar sometimes goes squirrels and you have to flip pages back and forth to reset it. Still, once you’re fine with that and find a good regular “English” book, this seems to be very effective to gradually improve your reading skills and build speed.

I bought this app to read my books for class. However, there is no way to upload books. I believe this is false advertisement. Please give me a refund.

App works great but I can’t read my iBooks so it’s a total waste for me.

This app lacks the essential ability to open up ePub files from the iOS files app, iCloud, OneDrive, Dropbox, etc... in iOS 13. You have to import using iTunes file sharing. That’s not cool in 2019. This is an essential feature that should be present in modern apps. otherwise works great.

Fantastic app. I love that it automatically senses my Calibre server.

Love the links to free ebooks love the speed reading component. Help to improve my reading speed n helps keep me focused on reading that story when I get easily distracted.

I thought it would present the text by flashing a couple of words at a time. Very disappointed such a feature isn’t part of a paid speed reading app

Wow. This is nothing more than an app that has a digital highlight that you try to follow with you eyes. I want my 5 bucks back. This app should be taken down. It claims to be the latest in speed reading tech, which is just a false ploy to get users to pay for the app. It’s sad that Apple allows apps like this to be sold on the App Store.

I have had this for a while. One of the first apps I have downloaded. It has never disappointed me.

This app allows you to read books normally and to train yourself to speed-read. It is extremely configurable so you can adjust the speed and type of scanning and the appearance any way you want. It is connected to excellent public domain catalogs so you can find all kinds of material easily. I highly recommend this app especially if you want to work on increasing your reading speed.

I have epilepsy. If the app paused at the end of sentences I would give it 5 stars. All other speed reading apps have this option.

I can’t wait to begin this journey. I’ve struggled to read but this app seems promising and effective. Can’t wait 😊

How do I upload my own pdf and epub to this like you said we can?

this app provides everything I could possibly ask for, and you can clearly see that the reading features are exclusively thoughtfully offered to produce a environment conducive for improving reading ability and speed. All in all a great app worthy of the price, which is nothing but reasonable (if not generous).

developers, here’s the best thing you can fix: don’t fill the entire screen with that box whenever I pause during guided reading. thanks love the app other than that annoying part

It took a few minutes to figure things out and I want to take books from my kindle and read them faster.

Would be great if you could download your continent easier.

Awesome and fun

Me word talking better now. Read words make brain swole up forehead and eyes hurting. Now mouth moving makes me sound smart. All good. Thumbs up!

I paid for the app to be able to read articles from different places on the internet with guided mode, so I can fasten and track my reading speed but the app doesn’t allow users to do so. Also I can not bring in books from iBooks. The app advertise another app within it for searching in its books for another 1 dollar! I’m requesting a refund right now! If you want to use the app’s library it might be good for you otherwise a waste of money. Also the app doesn’t support right to left languages such as Persian and Arabic which again shows how unjustified its price is. It should be in its early development phase not on App Store already!!

It’s probably my fault... but you wanted the review as soon as I started.

Where this app’s big strength is it’s customizability it lacks in accessibility to content. There are several books that I would like to access that I own and PDFs that I have that I can’t bring in. Many of the books I find in the catalogue aren’t even full versions of books (eg. have found several versions of brothers karamazov and neither full nor abridged)

The app has a lot of promise. I want believe that this app will improve my reading time but there is one dilemma. I have no clue how to download the books I want on the app. For example, I want a pdf of a book I found online. So I email it to myself. The problem is that when I try to open it in the QuickReader app, their app doesn’t show up as an option. iBooks shows up as an option. Nook shows up as an option. Even a scanner app that rarely use shows up as an option. But where the heck is QuickReader? There is no easy way to download your books using your mobile phone. I tried using the directions that the guide laid out for me. I went through the steps but still nothing. I don’t want to read some ancient texts provided for me for free in the catalogs. I want to read new best sellers. How can I do that if I can’t even get it on the app in the first place?

Perfect , I use it on old iPod and my iPad.

Meh. I didn’t get any real substance out of this. I like the letters of a stoic much better

2 legit 2 quit! Read on readers!

Really love this app.

I expected training in speed reading. All this app does is assess your current WPM reading speed and then highlight text at a given speed. It offers no training or tips of practical help. The interface is also confusing. Doesn’t seem like a good value.

I’m new to using the app, but I found its navigation fairly simple. There is a plethora of books to download, also the ability to import your own .epub books. So far, I can see this being my favorite phone e-reading application. There’s just so much offered here

I love this app. I use it nearly every day and have brought my speed reading up to 1200 wpm.

Good waiting room read.
