Every feature in SwiftsReader maps directly to an intervention validated in peer-reviewed academic research. This isn't a wellness app — it's evidence-based by design.
Assistive reading software allowed students to reduce distractibility, read with less stress and fatigue, and read for longer periods. Distractions per hour were 50% lower in the assisted reading condition — a statistically significant difference.
Students showed average gains of 35 percentage points in reading comprehension after mastering the RAP paraphrasing strategy. Gains were maintained two months after the intervention ended.
In the UK and Ireland, young people with ADHD are unlikely to enrol in further education, and of those who do go to university, few will graduate at the same time as their non-ADHD peers.
Students with ADHD are less likely to use effective study skills, more likely to struggle with note-taking and summarising, and less likely to show persistence in the face of challenging academic work.
Three steps from uploaded PDF to ADHD-friendly reading
Academic reading is hard. For neurodivergent minds, it's often overwhelming.
You need to read 10+ papers per week but can't focus for more than 10 minutes. Every paper feels like climbing Everest.
You finish a paper but can't remember what you just read. Time to re-read... again. And again.
Everyone else seems to breeze through papers. You're brilliant, but reading drains all your energy.
Watch SwiftsReader work with your brain, not against it
