Either you can choose the next word bei using the button „→“ or you can use the „Time based next word“. By this setting can be the duration of the word chosen. The selection is processed with a factor so that longer words are not displayed too short. This dynamic setting ensures that longer and more complex words are given more time to provide a natural and fluid reading experience. Reading can be started via the “Read” button.
