immer

A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads lives only one.

immer is an android app that teaches you to read faster. Most readers have an average reading speed of 200 words per minute, which is about as fast as they can read a passage aloud. This is no coincidence. You probably pronounce the text with your inner voice while pacing through it. This limits your reading speed. You can learn to mute your inner voice with this app, to increase your reading speed. Your mind comprehends the content of the text, before your inner voice can pronounce it. Therefore, there is no need to pronounce.
