Why would you think blank spaces in the middle of words will make me read faster?

Very nice app perfect to learn to speedread. What I miss as a function is keyboard shortcuts both for opening the current site with the extension, pausing/resuming speedreading and navigating left and right with the speedreading-cursor. If you the developer(s) could add this function I really would give it a 5-star.

Simple Reader Viewer that adds highlight feature and caters to the read-aloud crowd.

It's OK, and it does work as a speed reading trainer...but the speeds advertised are VERY overexaggerated. When I divided the number of words in an article by the time it took the reader to "read" it, the actual speeds were: 760 (setting) -> 591 (actual) 1410 (settings) -> 1113 (actual) It works alright, but take the "speed rating" with a heavy grain of salt. I'm a speed reading trainer, and would recommend this app to every one of my students IF the given speeds were more accurate.

can you please add options to change the highlight colors. specifically i like to read in dark mode (white text on black background). the green highlight is essentially useless in this mode. nonetheless, great product!!!
