Pressly Speed Reader

Most speed reading apps give you a play button. Pressly gives you control.

Pressly uses RSVP-style reading — one word at a time, fixed to a single
focus point — so your eyes never move and your focus never breaks. But
speed is not the goal. Comprehension is.

BUILT AROUND MEANING, NOT JUST MOTION

Text inside double quotation marks automatically italicizes during reading.
Dialogue shifts. Quoted phrases stand apart. Spoken words separate from
narration. You feel the change in tone without losing your place — a detail
no other speed reader has.

Smart pauses at punctuation and extra time for longer words give each
sentence the rhythm it was written with. Optional context words keep
surrounding text visible. ORP alignment anchors each word at its natural
recognition point. When the same word appears back-to-back, your phone
gives a quiet double tap — a subtle signal that keeps comprehension engaged
at speed.

YOU ARE ALWAYS IN CONTROL

Hold to read. Release to pause. Lock playback with two fingers for
hands-free reading. Tap forward or back to move word by word. Tap the
top area to step back. Set your WPM, tune your pauses, choose a theme,
adjust your font — then read.

Tap the current word while reading to instantly look it up in your device's dictionary — without losing your place.

YOUR FILES, YOUR LIBRARY

Pressly is a reading tool, not an ebook store. Import your EPUB, PDF, and
TXT files, or paste notes, articles, drafts, and copied text directly.
Everything stays on your device. No account. No cloud. No subscription

needed.
