Just a short time ago Diego Ojeda tweeted out about BeeLine Reader, which helps students read better in any language. The way that this works is that the color of the font slightly changes colors so that your eye better follows the text, and claims that 90% of people who use this app have seen benefits. It also states that 20%-30% of people show that they can reader faster than reading regularly colored text. The main drawback to this app is that it does cost money to use, and could just be an additional charge of schools when on standardized tests and almost all texts are written in the standard black ink. I believe that there are better ways to improve someone's reader other than only changing the color of the font, because they could still be encountering problems with comprehension.
