Screenshots

Inside the app.

A reading window showing two rows of short word groups from A Tale of Two Cities, with one group highlighted mid-passage and playback controls below.
The Standard Reader: This is A Tale of Two Cities in the Standard Reader: the text laid out as Stacks in a Grid, one Stack highlighted as the pace moves. Speed, words per Stack and the Grid itself are all yours to set.
A library screen listing seven book titles with word counts and category labels, a search box and category tabs above, and an Import Text button.
The Library: Seven texts on the shelf, each with its word count and a category chip. Search and your own categories keep a growing collection manageable — everything you import lands here.

In development

The Overlay Reader: The recording shows the Overlay Reader at work: a passage selected on a web page, summoned with a shortcut, and read in place over the page. It is in development and not yet in the Alpha build.
An Import Text form with a title field, a category dropdown, Paste Text and Upload File tabs, an empty paste box, and a Save & Open in Reader button.
Import Text: A title, a category, and the text itself — pasted straight in or uploaded as .txt, .docx, or .pdf. Save & Open in Reader does exactly what it says.

Experimental, may change

A Make Video screen listing seven library titles, each with its own Make Video button, above an option to paste or upload new text.
Make Video: Pick a text from the library — or paste something new without saving it — and the app renders it as a paced reading video. It ships today, rough edges and all.
A Settings screen with five cards: a Dark and Light theme toggle, Reader defaults, Overlay Reader, Import, and Data export to JSON.
Settings: Five cards cover the lot: light or dark theme, the reader's defaults — Playback, Grid, Text, Colors, Spacing — the Overlay Reader's shortcuts, import rules, and a one-click export of every text and setting to JSON.
