I just found Helperbird and it's amazing!. The immersive reader and sticky notes are super helpful for my studies. It's been a great help for my accessibility and study needs. Definitely recommend trying it out!

Well the one thing I wanted most to try from this (the ruler) and the second most wanted thing (the overlay) are both paid features, so I guess I'm moving on.
