Swipe is backwards

What about adding the Spritz techno? I love the font they use here, but would like the word placement to adjust to put the word not in the middle of the screen, but at the perfect place for comprehension. And lets bump the speed up above 1000 wpm, please.

I like swipe technology on the iPhone for video and audio and it makes sense for this app also. But the instructions say to swipe left to right and the app only works when you swipe the other way, which feels weird to me since the direction is as if I am holding a mouse instead of touching the screen. So that needs to be fixed.

Seems it should also offer a swipe forward. But why just 5 words? It should be configurable for one, two, and three finger swipes in any direction and for any number of words I want to move.

Also, I should not need to stop the playback to see the status or to change the speed of the playback.

Would like to have the speed slider click into place at each 100 level mark, maybe 50. I see no reason for the slider to move in between since it it too hard to hit the perfect number. For an exact number, let me type it but when I just want to switch between 500 and 300, the slider is okay if it only had stop points built in and if it were on screen all the time.

In addition, in landscape on iPhone I can probably show 2 or 3 words at once. I would like to see it offer me a configuration setting for that and perhaps for two or three lines at the same time.

I think I need a sepia option also because even the black night reading mode gives a halo effect after each word flashes and this makes it hard to distinguish each word.

What do I like? The integration with Pocket and Readability is good. And having a program on the iPhone that is like AceReader on the Mac and PC platforms is really nice. I like that it shows me how long an article will take to read, although on the iPhone I cant seem to find a way to change the speed and see the timings of all my list to read change. To do that, I need to slide back the menu, which hides the timings and change the wpm and then go back again. So this needs some ergonomic changes also. I might also like to highlight a list of articles and tell it how much time I have and let it pick the right speed.
