Seems that someone wants to replace the old Evelyn Wood method of speed reading with a technology assisted e-reader app. According to
AppAdvice, there's an iPhone app that helps you speed read by flashing words on the screen quickly so you don't have time to say the words in your mind - that only slows you down.
I can't imagine how this would be easier than building the techniques and skills used to read "normally displayed" text quickly, but hey, we've all been surprised before at what an app can do for us. This one also lets you read news and web sites that you have saved in Instapaper or Pocket.
Would be interested to hear if anyone has experience with this method of speed reading, whether using this app or other software.
