Why standard reading apps fail dyslexic readers

The problem isn't your intelligence.

It's how text is displayed.

b/d
p/q

Letters flip and swap

Standard fonts make b/d and p/q look too similar. Your brain has to work overtime to tell them apart.

The words

move around

Words seem to move

Letters blur together, jump around, or swim on the page. It's not your imagination — it's visual stress.

Lines blend together

You lose your place constantly, skip lines, or re-read the same line without realizing it.

Text feels crowded

Tight letter spacing makes words blur into each other. Your brain can't find where one word ends and another begins.

Autopace

Text moves at your rhythm so you always have a guide to follow. No more losing your place.

Large walls of text are hard to track and easy to lose focus on. When you face a dense block of information, your brain naturally feels overwhelmed before you even begin reading.

Breaking content into bite-sized chunks improves comprehension significantly. By focusing on one piece at a time, you reduce cognitive load and absorb information more effectively.

Your brain processes information faster when it's not overwhelmed. This method keeps your momentum going, preventing the urge to skim or skip important details.

Paragraph Chunking

Breaks walls of text into smaller, manageable pieces so you never feel overwhelmed.
