Reading Trainer Reviews

I’ve actually taught speed reading and I appreciate the potential of an app that helps with screen speed reading, which is different than techniques for printed word.
However, I have dyscalculia, which is like dyslexia but for numbers, and I question the veracity of basing much of your score off of finding numbers among numbers, which I would argue is an unrealistic skill to need in almost any field.
Yes, numbers are important, but finding them in a sea of other numbers is not a skill I’ve ever needed, and doesn’t seem relevant to the goal of reading text on screens faster and more effectively.
Otherwise, a useful app.

UPDATE: I stand corrected! I’ve noticed a huge difference in how quickly I perceive numbers and how quickly I read! I’m so impressed, I can’t recommend ReadingTrainer enough.

So far, ReadingTrainer seems to do exactly what it says it will do. It seems as though it is written by an austere group of people like college professors. One of the things it could use is some help from more creative graphics/colors/font choice from the people that write ReadingTrainer Elevate. So far, it seems to do exactly what it says it will do. If one wants to improve their reading skills, ReadingTrainer is right on track.

I LOVE books but didn't particularly enjoy reading. I am 30 and am just learning that I have a reading comprehension disability... maybe dyslexia. I never knew. I was an A/B student in school. Graduated both HS and College and have an iq of 145. Being 30 now I realize that this has affected not only my reading skills, but personal life as well. So I sought online help and came across ReadingTrainer. I love it!

Been using ReadingTrainer for years. But after downloading 2.0 - quite disappointed. Very buggy and slow, both iPad and iPhone. 15seconds to wait for an exercise to open... or an exercise over in 1/3 of the time. Hope it all gets resolved asap. Thanks

Now moments of waiting are made far more fruitful. 5 or 10 minutes a day has improved my slow reading spread. I did not realize that I was just fixating on words too long. ReadingTrainer has forced me out of the habit. I can't wait to get to all the books I've bought! Thank you!

Not sure how much I've improved yet but it's programmed with several games in the format of lessons where u can consistently see how your progressing and it's teaching my eye muscles and brain to work as a team for reading . I'm sure it will work for me after a few more weeks 😁

Solid training methods. Rapid improvement. Real results. Used iPad version years ago. Glad they now have one for iPhone. Exercises quick and effective. Makes you want to train and get faster. Highly recommend.

I was looking for something exactly like this. I can’t get enough of reading now. My reading speed increased only after a few days of regular exercising, but also I have a clearer comprehension, which increases my enjoyment from reading.

This program has increased my reading speed by roughly 50% in a little over a week. I will continue doing lessons to see how much faster I can get. It’s great!

Requires a monthly subscription fee to do anything past the first two exercises. I downloaded ReadingTrainer when it was featured as free for the day instead of $2.99. They apparently changed it to now be a subscription app so listing it as free was misleading. I absolutely loathe apps that make you pay every single month for eternity. Deleted.

Great app that is challenging and never boring. Function and navigation are simple but intuitive so it leaves you wanting to come back.

Just got it a couple of days ago
Really enjoying the challenge
I feel my improvement

I have been using ReadingTrainer for 3 days, and I am feeling improvement already. Thanks guys

Not only it has helped me to read better it helped me to improve my English as this is my second language. Please try it you won't regret it.

Very bad, that you came back and made ReadingTrainer cost 10$ each month for a set of exercises which are NOT UNIQUE!
Even one star is too much for your app!

i like ReadingTrainer, very helpful.
Hope they update it and add something new.

Try it

Asking for a review after 1 day? Too funny. ReadingTrainer makes my brain hurt, which is good.

My work in the lab involves counting and retaining images under the microscope. ReadingTrainer increases my reflexes and helps develop the eye-brain connection. Thanks!

Wish I could get a refund. Very very buggy! And what I could use I thought was boring. Disappointing.

$14 a month for such a simple app is insane. I’d gladly spend maybe $5 one time or something, but there’s no way I’m going willing to subscribe monthly for this.

I get the need for subscriptions. It’s in order to make money, but as a student who cannot afford to purchase subscriptions like these, it makes it difficult. Sometimes I wish that apps were like duolingo where you could still access the features that make ReadingTrainer worth using (with ads), and subscriptions were for very special features. ReadingTrainer has nothing to help someone who is attempting to learn speed reading if you want it to be free. The most that I could get out of ReadingTrainer is an increased understanding of word searches which was not what I was trying to accomplish when downloading ReadingTrainer.

Tried ReadingTrainer , but immediately am pulled into what looks like an auto renewing recurring type money thievery. I don’t like that auto pay bull shucks. Deleted immediately. Plus the article I read said $2.99. Yeah, no. Also lovin the ai responses.
