Afterthought Speed Reader
Afterthought Speed Reader Ranking & Summary
Afterthought Speed Reader description
7/1/2009 - Note that when you adjust from 1 word at a time to multiple words at a time, the display speed will *slow down* to keep the WPM (words per minute) consistent. This is by design and does NOT mean the app is sluggish (per the 2 star review below)--its simple math folks.
-------
Afterthought Speed Reader is an enhanced Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) eBook reader for the iPhone and the iPod touch. Like other eBook readers, it flashes from 1 to 6 words at a time in the center of the screen allowing increased reading speed. The Afterthought Speed Reader goes beyond other eBook readers by adding a natural conversational style that provides a modified RSVP experience that includes a completion meter, punctuation pauses, interruption pauses, and pauses at clause and sentence boundaries. For example, when processing a sentence that has clauses set off by commas or semicolons, there is a slight pause when a commas is encountered followed by a slightly longer pause at the end of a sentence--all of which is configurable via settings. This provides for a more natural story-telling style.
Other features:
- Offline storage of books for disconnected reading.
- Internationalized (English / Spanish)
- More font choices than other eBook apps
- More color (text color / background color) choices than other apps.
- Can add / delete as many stories as can fit in the memory of your device.
- Uses URI application processing to easily add stories to your list of books using Safari as a jump-off point.

- Automatically bookmarks your reading location for each book you are reading from your book list.
- Automatically titles your selections (currently only for .txt files pulled from project Gutenberg at http://www.gutenberg.org). For example, where other ebooks would list a book by its URL, like "...11.txt", the Afterthought Speed Reader will list it properly as "Alice in Wonderland"
