muito bom! só falta ter a opção de aumentar a letra e mudar as cores, expandir o quadro de leitura. No mais funciona muito bem.

Fantastic! This is the only speed reading extension that works with kiwi browser for Android (where double tap registers as a 'zoom in' command rather than double click), and it works quite well, although I wish I could select speeds higher than 975 and I wish there were an AMOLED black background. Please update with these features, thanks!
