Questions about Word Counter

Is my text saved or sent anywhere?

No. Counting happens in your browser and your text is never uploaded. If you close the tab, it is gone.

How is reading time worked out?

We use 238 words per minute for reading and 140 for speaking — the averages found in reading research.
