With time and attention spans continually shrinking, a new app has arise to fill even your most idle moments.

Never be at loss or risk being bored again with Short.

Short and sweet

Short works by pulling together articles you've saved from sites including Instapaper, Pocket and Readability, and packages them into bite-sized snippets.

The iOS app aims to further streamline the process by telling you how long each article will take to consume, based on an average reading speed of 200 words per minute.

As you scroll through the article a progress bar will show you how far you've progressed.

Quick fix

While Short might not be the most conductive method for digesting weighty tomes, it offers another way to access your potentially large back catalog of saved articles. 

It's worth noting that Short doesn't yet have a save offline option, or Android version.
