## Description

Citolex helps you get through text faster — read it, hear it, or both at once.

HOW IT WORKS

Citolex flashes your text one word at a time, right where your eyes are already resting, so you're not scanning back and forth across a line. A natural voice can read along in perfect sync, so you can listen and watch together, or just close your eyes and listen.

BRING YOUR OWN TEXT

• Paste any article, essay, or block of text
• Upload a file — .txt, .md, .pdf, .docx, or .epub, parsed right on your device
• Paste a link to pull in an article
• Share text into Citolex directly from Safari, Notes, or any other app

READ YOUR WAY

• Adjustable reading speed from a relaxed pace to well beyond normal reading speed
• A natural on-device voice reads aloud, synced word-for-word with the flash, or on its own
• Distraction-free fullscreen mode, edge to edge, with a simple tap to play or pause
• Six color themes, including a calm forest palette
• See your pace, time saved, and reading stats as you go

BUILT FOR PRIVACY

Everything happens on your device. There's no account, no sign-up, and no server in the loop — your text never leaves your phone.

Whether you're getting through a long article, studying, or just trying to read more in less time, Citolex is built to get out of your way and let you read.
