Is it basically a different font that is easier for dyslexics to read? Or something else?

The former, easier to read. That being said, studies suggest the font isn't as effective as they'd have you believe.

Try spritz apparently they have iOS and Android apps now but I used to use it on pc. It rained my sight reading to the point that I only look dyslexic when I'm typing fast.
