Extension summary

Quick Reader converts any public website into bionic format, which alters texts so that the most concise parts of words are highlighted. This guides the eye over the text and the brain remembers previously learned words more quickly. This facilitates faster, more accessible reading, especially for neurodiverse audiences.

Note that this extension currently don't support any kind of locally uploaded content, such as pdfs.

michaeljiang949 You've really outdone yourself with this one! It works exactly as advertised and sped up my reading by at least 794% on every webpage I go to. My only regret is that I did not have this sooner. I would give this 10 stars if I could. 10/5 would recommend to anyone who has eyes!
