Is my text saved or sent anywhere?
No. Counting happens live in your browser as you type. Nothing is uploaded or stored - close the tab and the text is gone.
How is reading time calculated?
We divide the word count by 200, the commonly used average reading speed for adults, and round to the nearest minute.
