Read Quick

Get it here
Cost: 9.99



UDL Guideline 1.1- Offer ways of customizing the display of information
Read Quick is perfect for customizing the display for information because this app allows students to import just the text from articles, reports, and books on most web sources. Read Quick then allows for adjustments in the size, rate of speed, font, and background contrast of the text based on individual preferences. While the app is titled Read Quick, it has settings that can slow down the delivery of words as well.

General Critique:
This app supports UDL principles by allowing students to remove typical website distractions (such as pictures and embedded video/audio) so that they can focus on the text of the article. The ability to easily access the tools associated with this app encourages its usage in academic and personal endeavors.
