Read Faster.
Study Smarter.
Stress Less.
The speed reading app built for how your brain actually works — with ADHD-friendly focus modes, dyslexia-optimised fonts, and AI-powered study tools that turn any document into quizzes, flashcards, and summaries.
The reading list problem nobody warns you about.
They hand you hundreds of pages of dense material every week and expect you to just… get through it. On top of lectures, tutorials, coursework, and having a life. The standard advice is “just read more efficiently” — which is about as helpful as telling someone who’s drowning to just swim better.
Meanwhile, most speed reading apps offer a single technique (RSVP) that trades comprehension for raw speed. You read faster but remember less. That’s not a solution — it’s a different problem.
Accruva is different. Five reading modes. AI-powered study tools. Built-in comprehension testing. And every accessibility feature is free — because reading tools should work for every brain, not just neurotypical ones.
A mode for every reader. A mode for every mood.
No two brains read the same way. Accruva gives you five distinct reading modes — more than any other speed reading app — so you can match your approach to the material and how you’re feeling today.
One tap. Quizzes, flashcards, summaries — from any document.
You’ve done the reading. Now let AI do the heavy lifting. Simply upload any PDF, EPUB, or DOCX and Accruva will turn it into quizzes, flashcards, and summaries in seconds — then schedules your reviews automatically so you actually remember what you studied.
AI Quiz Generation
Upload a chapter, tap generate, and get a proper quiz in seconds. Not random trivia — questions that actually test whether you understood the argument, the evidence, and the nuance. Each answer comes with an explanation so you learn from what you got wrong.
AI Flashcards
Forget spending hours making Anki decks by hand. Accruva scans your documents and builds front/back flashcard pairs with topic tags automatically. They feed straight into the built-in SM-2 spaced repetition engine — so you review at exactly the right intervals without needing a second app.
AI Summaries
Thirty-page journal article? Dense textbook chapter? Get a concise summary that actually captures the key points — not a vague overview that misses everything important.
