I just bought a copy of Velocireader. I like it so far :)

Is there any way to raise the speed above 900wpm without going all the way to 1200wpm? The book I'm reading now is fine at 900wpm (and <=3 words per screen), but I think I could go a little faster. At 1200wpm I'm losing comprehension, so ideally I'd like to set it to 1000wpm. I can't see a way to do that.

+/- buttons at the top-right of the screen to make +5%/-5% adjustments to the speed without stopping reading would be great.

I'll get back to reading...

Thanks!

Currently there isn't a way to do that without adjusting the number of words. I've had other users complain about this though, so in the next update I'm going to make the time slider free to move, and introduce a stepper to adjust to the nearest 50wpm or something. This update has taken a while because I've been working on Pocket/Instapaper support.

Originally the slider was free to move; it was just too finicky to get down to a round-figure WPM on the smaller devices so I added the 'ratchet'.

Wow! Pocket/Instapaper support. I'm really looking forward to that. About 1/4 of the articles I save are too wordy, and this will help me get through them rather than leaving them for a day which never comes.

Same here. I realized that on some days the only reading I do is from my Pocket queue.
