VeloRead: Speed Reading & Bionic Reader

🚀 What's New in VeloRead v0.0.0.2 1. Premium "Blvck" UI & Zero Obstructions Anchored Control Bar: Complete redesign of the Reader Mode control block. The Bionic Mode, Typography, Size, and WPM settings are now merged into an elegant, centralized "glassmorphism" top menu that will never overlap your text. Native Universal Inter Typography: The Inter font is now natively injected into the extension, preventing annoying fallbacks to boring fonts. All contextual menus, numbers, and HUB statistics use this clean design, achieving a much more modern and professional visual look. 2. "Pacer" System (Speed Trainer) New feature added: Pacer Mode ⚡. A customizable training module that allows you to dynamically scale up your reading speed. You can set a "Target WPM", the desired increments (e.g., +10 WPM), and the acceleration frequency (e.g., every 60 seconds). The reader will automatically increase your speed in real-time, remembering your settings between sessions. 3. Navigation, Table of Contents (TOC) & Time Estimates Dynamic Chapter Time Estimation: The Table of Contents now calculates your speed (WPM) and the total words per chapter to display the approximate minutes remaining to finish that section in parentheses (e.g., (5 min)). Advanced PDF Highlighting (Tracking): The asynchronous nature of PDFs has been tamed. The TOC now perfectly knows what word index you are currently hovering over in a PDF, accurately highlighting the active chapter in orange. EPUB Chronological Order: Fixed a severe bug that caused chapters in certain EPUB ebooks to be read in alphabetical order instead of following the logical syntax (.opf/spine). The linearity of your novel is now 100% guaranteed. __________________________________________________________ VeloRead is the ultimate speed reading extension designed for professionals, students, and productivity enthusiasts who want to regain control over their time. Using scientifically proven advanced RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) techniques, VeloRead flashes words sequentially, eliminating backward eye movements. It trains your eyes by guiding you with an illuminated O.R.P. (Optical Recognition Point), multiplying your WPM (Words Per Minute) effortlessly. 👁️‍🗨️ Exclusive Reading Modes: RSVP Reader: Select any text, blog or document and play it at speeds up to 1000 WPM in an immersive, dark screen (Blvck Edition) free of distractions and ads. Bionic Reading: Instantly toggle any web page or article into a Bionic format. It mathematically highlights the first half of every word so your brain completes it automatically, drastically increasing your visual flow. 📚 Built-in Multi-format Support: We know not everything is read on the web. VeloRead includes a native Drag & Drop reading room. Drop your PDFs, EPUB ebooks, Word DOCXs, or simple TXT files and read them instantly in your browser without needing external tools. Plus, if you hit pause, our Contextual Ebook mode shows exactly where you left off. 🏆 Gamification: Track Your Progress: VeloRead is not just a tool, it's a trainer for your brain.
