Lots of potential, but lacking. This app has a potential to become a great app, but it needs some upgrades. The bookmarks needs to be improved. They don't bring you back to the exact spot you left the bookmark at. There should be an option to scroll up just in case you fall behind and miss some lines. There should be a progress bar to show how far along you are. It Need a night mode. Please seriously consider these upgrades and with pleasure change I will change the score.

This app has potential to be a best seller.

Such as moon reader, and calibre companion. Calibre companion looks for ereaders, and doesn't see this app. And, since the app won't open ebooks itself - a dialog opens saying it only opens text file - so there's no way for me to open and books in this app.

Just realized the instructions for the last practice drill is directing the user to coordinate their eye movements to the spaces where the words will appear. After realizing this, I think really there needs to be a words per minute setting the user may set for speed reading drills so to more effectively increase/practice eye coordination /speed! No one can disagree with that!

I love your app and bought the upgrade. However, it would be wonderful if we can bookmark shared text from other apps. Sometimes reading a long text can't be done in one sitting and we need to be able to save the progress and continue later.

I've bought the upgrade and tried it with a book. It would be wonderful to have the option to start reading from a specific page or line. Also, bookmarks are not working correctly, it continues from some random page rather than my bookmark. Must be improved.
