Description

Jiffy Reader uses Bionic Reading to help you to read faster, better , easier and with incredible focus than ever before.

Stop re-reading the same text over and over.

Jiffy Reader creates focus points based on the principles of Bionic Reading that guide your eyes and make it easier to glide through text. The focus points are created by manipulating font weights, opacity and color.

With Jiffy Reader you customize how the text is manipulated to create focus points.

Jiffy Reader's goals are to make reading, fun , comfortable and easy while reading.

Basically we want you to have the best Bionic Reading experience possible when compared to other Bionic Reader extensions.

We have received lots of love and support from many people some of whom have expressed how Jiffy Readers helps improve their reading and focus with ADHD and academic work.



We hope that by using the Jiffy Reader extension you too will be able to read large amounts of text faster, more easily, with greater comprehension and focus.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
