About ReadLine | Eliminate Reading Distractions

No matter your reading level or reading challenges, ReadLine keeps your eyes exactly where they need to be. A digital version of the classic reading strip, on any website. Dim the page and highlight a single line that follows your cursor. Adjustable height, tint strength & color. Perfect for focused reading. Bring the plastic reading ruler to every website. ReadLine dims the whole page and cuts a crisp horizontal “reading window” through the tint, letting you lock onto one line at a time and ignore the clutter around it.
