2020-08-08	White Rabbit			Guys, do night mode in the app.
2020-03-17	Tolossa			Doesn't even work.
2018-12-19	Pablo Campos			La idea genial, es super util el problema es que cuando traduzco una página y le doy a la aplicación no lo hace bien toma el texto anterior cuando otras aplicaciones de la misma función no presentan problema.
2018-02-16	Olaf Wendt			Die beste Erweiterung ihrer Art, finde ich. Nach dem Durchtesten vieler vergleichbarer Tools bleibe ich bei Splash Reader. Die ("Denk-")Pausen zwischen den Absätzen kamen mir anfangs ziemlich lang vor, besonders nach einzeiligen Zwischen-Überschriften etc., aber bei 500 wpm ist mein Hirn nach einem längeren Absatz auch mal froh, den eben gefluteteten Input zu verarbeiten. Im Englischen gibt es den Spruch "drinking from the firehose" - das Lesen mit diesem Tool kommt dem am nächsten; ungeübten Lesern kommt die Informationsflut bestimmt vor wie direkt aus dem Feuerwehrschlauch. Dafür gibt es jedoch Einstellungen für Wörter-pro-Minute-Vorgaben und eine Pausetaste. Die einzige Optimierungsmöglichkeit sehe ich bei den oben erwähnten Pausen, welche nicht einstellbar sind.
2017-02-20	David Díez			Great idea that short breaks for showing text, letting know where you are. Additionally it's very versatile, as you can pause fast reading and adjust its speed on the way, and let you control where you are if you stop. But doing necessarily the pause sometimes it breaks concentration on reading when it's too often, depending on the text. That feature may be personalised by users. Anyway, excellent idea!
2017-01-02	Ian Hollis			Okay, it seems most of these Spritz readers can't do .pdfs, which is disappointing. The 'breaks' this takes, where you can see it 'scanning' a webpage? THAT'S what I want from speed reading software! I want something where it will train my eyes to follow a target quickly, which I think will apply better to reading an ordinary book than just having the words fixed in the centre of the screen. Thank you.

2015-04-17	A Google user			The app runs quite well and can reach higher speeds than most other implementations of Spritz I've used. The breaks after each paragraph are also very helpful in increasing comprehension and the length/speed information is a great bonus. It would be even better if users could customize the size of the font to take advantage of larger/smaller screens.
