# FreeSpritz

A free, open-souce desktop speed reading application

## Usage

FreeSpritz allows faster reading by eliminating saccades (eye movements). Our brains work much faster than our eyes can move to recognize words. FreeSpritz centers each word so that is it most recognizable. The average reading speed it around 300wpm, but with a little practice using FreeSpritz, 600wpm is easily achievable and comprehendable.

### Instructions

To use FreeSpritz, simply paste desired text into the text box and click on the desired start point. Press the play/pause button to start or stop the reading of words. If a section of words was missed, they can be reread by clicking on the stop button and repositioning the cursor at the desired starting point. The speed (wpm) can be changed at any time.
