Description Development of technologies for users with reading or symbol disorder is neglected due to statistically inconsistent number of users diagnosed across languages, dependency of the technology on specific language principles or strict conditions of dyslexia diagnose tests. However, not only diagnosed individuals may go through hard time while reading. We are developing an application software that will allow Czech speaking users (users speaking latin-alphabet languages, respectively) with dyslexia to access written information better in any time and place, which also means easier socialization or access to education for them. We suggest to fragment text into small parts using a dash sign. It will make visual syllables easier to catch but still keep text consistent
