mindima for readers

Read more. Backtrack less.

Most slow reading is re-reading. mindima’s speed-reading tools train a wider visual span and a steadier pace, the two mechanics behind reading that moves forward, and chart your in-app progress as you practise.

Free to start. No account needed to play.

What you’ll train

The mechanics behind faster reading.

Each tool isolates one part of how your eyes and mind move through a page. Practise them separately; read with them together.

  • Visual span

    Span drills train taking in more words per fixation, so your eyes make fewer stops per line.

  • Steady pacing

    Paced-reading tools, including RSVP, rehearse moving forward at a set rhythm, the habit that crowds out backtracking.

  • Holding the thread

    Working-memory games practise keeping the argument in mind as the pages turn. Speed is only useful if the meaning keeps up.

Play it

Don't take our word for it. Take a turn.

One demo per pillar. This is exactly how a session feels. Nothing to download or sign up for.

Read at speed

A sentence, one word at a time, then a quick comprehension check. Speed and detail together.

The lighthouse keeper waved to the small red boat at dawn.

A sentence, one word at a time. Then one quick question.

How it works

Surveys, games, and tools. One loop.

The surveys match you to what works, and each tool’s daily practice keeps you coming back. That loop is what makes the training stick, and what you won’t find anywhere else.

  1. Check in

    Thirty-second surveys map your values, stress, traits, and in-the-moment focus and mood.

  2. Train what counts

    You get the exact games and tools for your goal, never a generic drill. And every tool comes with its own daily practice, a five-minute rep that makes the habit stick.

  3. See what works

    Charts connect sessions to check-ins, and streaks and mastery make showing up feel like winning.

Gamified progress

Built like a game. Backed like a study plan.

Every mechanic has a job: streaks build the reading habit, mastery marks faster reading that keeps comprehension, and your charts keep the payoff visible.

12day streak

Streaks build the habit

Show up daily and watch the ring close. Repetition in a steady context is how habits form.

Mastery marks real skill

Badges like Memory Master are weekly titles earned with accuracy, never bought. Clear goals pull performance.

Why it works: feeling competent and seeing progress toward clear goals are two of the most replicated motivators in psychology. mindima uses them to keep you training, never to keep you scrolling.

  • Motivation & competence: Ryan & Deci, American Psychologist, 2000.
  • Goal setting: Locke & Latham, American Psychologist, 2002.

The science

Training that works, by design.

  • Tested beats re-read.

    Recalling something cements it far better than re-reading it.

    Every memory game is a recall rep.

    Roediger & Karpicke, Psychological Science, 2006
  • Growth lives at the edge.

    Learning is fastest just above your current level.

    Games adapt every rep to keep you there.

    Klingberg, Trends in Cognitive Sciences, 2010
  • Little and often wins.

    Short, spaced sessions beat marathons.

    mindima is built around five-minute days.

    Cepeda et al., Psychological Bulletin, 2006
  • Play keeps you coming back.

    Gamified learning measurably lifts motivation and engagement.

    Streaks, mastery tiers, and visible progress do that job here.

    Sailer & Homner, Educational Psychology Review, 2020

FAQ

Still curious? Fair questions.

Does this actually work?

It makes you measurably better at the games and the mechanics they train, and shows you your own progress honestly. We don’t claim more than that; see The Science above.

What do the surveys actually tell me?

Your values, stress patterns, personality traits, and in-the-moment focus and mood. mindima turns those answers into specific game and tool recommendations, on your device. Self-insight, not a clinical assessment.

How much time per day?

Five minutes is a real session. The app is built around short, daily reps, not marathons.

What’s my data doing?

Your insight report is built from your activity on your device. By default nothing leaves your device; encrypted sync and the web dashboard are optional and off until you turn them on. See our Privacy page for the full detail.

What does it cost?

Free forever, with no ads on any tier: 21 of 55 brain games, 45 of 125 mental tools, 8 of 23 surveys, and the daily puzzle every day. Premium adds the complete catalogue, the hard practice tier on every daily puzzle, your record synced across every device, and your full year of history with the web dashboard. There is a 7-day free trial, and the plans and prices are on the pricing page. See the plans and prices.

Will it spam me with notifications?

One optional daily reminder at a time you pick, and nothing else. No streak guilt, no win-back campaigns. Turn it off in two taps and the app never mentions it again.

Do I need an account?

Not to start playing.

iOS and Android?

Both.
