Read Shit Faster

Speed read articles without losing comprehension.

This is the extension of the web app, Read 💩 Faster. The average person reads at 200WPM with roughly 60% comprehension. With this extension, you're able to drastically increase your (words per minute) WPM without compromising your reading comprehension. Simply put, rather than reading left-to-right, you're reading one word at a time as each word flashes on your screen.

You're able to configure the WPM you'd like to read at, copy and paste text from articles and insert them into the extension to read them faster, and much more. You can even control most aspects of this extension using keyboard controls!

Works pretty well, but add a thing where it automatically activates that addon when you highlight a piece of text.

Works like a charm!

Give a slight break after completing a sentence that means after getting Full Stop (.) pause for a while for the better reading experience. After all, Thanks a lot...

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Read Shit Faster does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    Risk likelihood
    Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

    Read Shit Faster may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
