All Versions of Noa

6.2.8

May 23, 2024

- Fixed some bugs on the play screen. - Added a toggle within Playback Settings to allow listeners to remove AI-narrated articles from their feeds. Note: We don't currently have any AI-narrated articles on the Noa app, but the plan is to experiment. They won't be replacing human narration, instead they may let us expand our coverage (more publishers, more topics, etc.). Each article will be fully quality controlled to ensure the highest standards and will be flagged as being AI-narrated (visually and audibly). As we experiment, feedback is very welcome.

Reviews of Noa

  • Please support larger text settings

    I’m really excited about the content in this app. I’m using it because my vision is extremely poor and I can’t read all the things I used to. Unfortunately this app has such small text (even though my accessibility settings have my text set to extremely large) that I can barely use it.
  • Decent idea, needs tweaks

    I loved this app when I first discovered it, however after some brief time using it, I have lots of feedback on how it could be improved. If these issues could be resolved, I would love this app and use it all the time:

    1) Queue issues: when I try to resume listening to a series after stopping mid-way, I cannot resume listening to the series again. I have to manually select each individual article and intro/conclusion. Otherwise the audio automatically stays to an unrelated article I never queued. This is a repeated issue.

    2) Annoying “ding” sound at the start of each article: I listen to articles both informationally, as well as to fall asleep. After just 2 weeks of listening, I grew very annoyed with the intro sound for each article. It disrupted the rhythmic narrator when I was falling asleep, and it was just irritating when I was listening to multiple articles in a row. If it only ding when I first open the app, that would be fine. However as it is, it’s way too often.
  • A good app with lacking support

    This is a great app as far as high-quality narration goes. The stories are engaging and great picks amongst the current news and are read clearly. The focus is primarily on economic news, which is what I wanted.

    Unfortunately, I've had issues where I paid for the service yearly and had to repay for it, and I still have yet to receive a refund for the double payment. Contacting their support takes a long time, and they aren't very responsive, and I'm honestly frustrated with them despite the excellent app.
