Read Timer - A Chrome Extension for Reading Online Articles

Get an estimate of how long it will take you to read an article you are viewing with Read Timer. This is a simple extension that you can use immediately after installing it on your browser. You just have to specify your read speed in words per minute (WPM) after installing it so that it can learn your average reading speed.

This speed is further fine-tuned based on the average speed across pages as you use the app. With this, you will be able to see how much time has already elapsed by watching the progress bar.

As soon as you click the icon, the article is parsed and the word count of the article text is obtained.

You can then use this data to estimate how much time is left until you finish reading.

You can also use this information to know how far you are from finishing the article.

You can also find out how much longer the current page will take to finish.
