Dogear vs Reedy

Dogear is a speed-reading trainer for iOS that measures comprehension after each passage. It offers word-by-word RSVP and guided highlighting, with adjustable pacing from 100 to 900 words per minute. Its comprehension-safe speed is the fastest pace at which a reader scores at least 80% comprehension. Readers can paste articles, notes, or book excerpts from the clipboard, and Dogear saves their place. Progress tools include a daily-goal ring, a seven-day streak strip, and charts that pair pace with comprehension. Controls cover chunk size, rewind, a scrubber, haptics, text appearance, pausing at punctuation, and pivot guides. On supported iPhones, Apple’s on-device foundation model can create passages and quizzes; devices without Apple Intelligence use built-in passages and quizzes, without transmitting user text. Dogear says it collects no personal data, needs no account, and has no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs. It works offline apart from its launch-time settings-file download. The App Store listing requires iOS 26 or later and also lists compatibility with iPadOS 26, macOS 26 on Apple silicon, and visionOS 26. The app is free, with no ads, subscription, or account.

Reedy reads e-books, articles, text, and web pages in regular reading, speed-reading, and text-to-speech modes. Its RSVP speed reader presents text in sequence and supports speeds up to 3000 words per minute. Listed file formats include FB2, EPUB without DRM, KEPUB, TXT, and HTML, including books in ZIP archives. Reading tools include bookmarks, automatic tables of contents, text selection and sharing, orientation lock, adjustable text size, and light and dark themes. Reedy can extract the main content from web pages and accept pages shared from browsers, Pocket, Feedly, or Evernote. On Android, books can also be opened from Google Drive, Dropbox, and other apps or cloud services. The listed platforms are Android and a Chrome extension, though the terms identify Android as the current platform; some functions require an active internet connection. Reedy is freemium, provided at no cost, with ads and in-app purchases. Its privacy policy says it may request advertising ID and IP address and may collect error logs with device and app configuration details.
