Sorry to keep requesting things but... can we add a down arrow too if it’s not too much trouble? I notice there is now an up arrow to jump to the top of the page but it would be nice to quickly jump to the bottom too because sometimes I don’t feel like scrolling all the way down lol didn’t there used to be one before the update??? If it’s too much trouble, don’t worry about it! I am sure you guys are busy enough working out all the kinks still! But maybe it could be added in the future. :)

Otherwise, loving the update! :)
 
I'm sorry. I noticed the new grouping of icons in the mobile top bar is different and it's pixel size doesn't appear to be "larger" to my g33kie eyes.

The ones on the right were pretty small before. Not super small but definitely noticeable. At least to me. It appears they evened everything out and made them bigger while shrinking the ones on the left a bit, thus making them match and also be more readable. :)

Most speed readers are using some type of skimming method, even if their overall reading comprehension is high. Prediction plays a large part. For instance, I can read most fictional books at roughly 850 to 900 words per minute and still remember the plot afterwards; I cannot do that if I am learning something—particularly if it involves new, technical vocabulary—through text. My actual ability to process words doesn't vary, only my ability to accurately predict what's next to "fill in" the story based on general text shape.
Anyone remember the Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics? Taught me to read very very fast.
 
I thought the reindeer were the ones that could fly?
I only use them when I'm feeling lazy.

Which flavor and version are you running currently? (I'm testing the waters still on a few) preparing to fade our house in the next year or two?(fingers crossed) my learning curve is still a bit steep.
Hmmm. I don't know. I am not the tech person in this house; were it up to me, there would be no programs newer than Internet Explorer!

It sounds familiar, but I have never used it. I have been toying with learning some "official" speed reading methods to see if I can get my speed up beyond what it is naturally. It sounds like a fun way to waste a few weekends.
