FAQ

Questions about bionic reading.

What is bionic reading?

Bionic reading emphasizes a focal point within each word to guide your eyes and reduce saccades. It keeps your gaze anchored while your peripheral vision fills in the rest.

Does it actually make reading faster?

Many readers report improved speed and focus after a short adjustment period. Read82 lets you tune the anchor position, aperture, and pace so you can find what feels natural.

Is my text stored anywhere?

No. Read82 runs locally and keeps your content on-device. Nothing is uploaded or saved unless you choose to store it yourself.

Which formats are supported on web vs desktop?

Web: TXT and MD. Desktop app: TXT, MD, PDF, and EPUB.
