Focused Reader

Focused Reader shows your books one word at a time, so your eyes stop wandering and you actually finish what you start — and finally read the books you always meant to. It uses RSVP (rapid serial visual presentation): instead of scanning across lines, each word appears in the same spot, one after another. You set the pace, and the reading comes to you — calm, centered, and free of clutter. WHAT YOU CAN READ • Thousands of free, public-domain classics built in — browse and download in the Discover tab • Your own EPUB, PDF, and text files • Paste text, or import from a web link • Share text from any app straight into Focused Reader BUILT FOR FOCUS • One clean word at a time — no ads or clutter while you read • Optional focus letter (ORP) that pins each word so your eyes stay still • Context view to glimpse the previous and next word when you want it • Chapter cards and a table of contents READ AT YOUR PACE • Set words-per-minute exactly • Natural pacing — longer words linger, and it eases at punctuation • Ease-in speed that starts gentle and builds up • Step back or forward a sentence at a time MAKE IT YOURS • Fonts including OpenDyslexic, with size and weight controls • Light and dark themes • Bookmark any sentence and jump straight back later STAY MOTIVATED • Set a focused reading goal • Optional daily reminder, a reading streak, and a finished-book count ON YOUR DEVICE • Your library and reading progress stay on your device • Read fully offline once a book is imported • No ads, and no account required Focused Reader is free to install and includes a 7-day free trial.
