Abstract | To help his daughter with her dyslexia-related challenges, Petar Reic started to research the disorder and its resulting reading challenges. With a background in graphic technologies, design, and journalism, he realized that manipulation of font and text could have a positive effect on readability. That is how the idea for Omoguru was born. The International Dyslexia Association suggests that between 5-10% of the global population experience dyslexia, which equates to around 700 million people worldwide. Omoguru was created with the simple goal of empowering dyslexics, focusing on facilitating reading and learning for children with dyslexia and reading difficulties. Using the tools available in the Omoguru web and mobile software, users can keep and improve their reading pace, focus, and accuracy. Above all, the tool provides an enjoyable reading experience.
