Thank you Captain! We are glad to hear you are enjoing it
Wonderful app! But I would love some speed control
What a fantastic concept. And what a great execution. It’s an elegant, logical, well-designed and usable interface with a lot of power under the hood! Bravo. I have one feature request: I want to have something like a thumb-slider control over reading speed. Drag to the far right and it’s reading at three times normal speed, slide a bit back/left and it’s at 2.5 times, …slide back to the middle and it’s at normal… And to the left slows things down a bit, etc. maybe down the road you could develop a ”smart playback speed“ feature. I have ideas for how that might work. Get in touch!

Hey James! Thank you for your kind words. As for the speed, this feature already exists on the app. Just go into the full-screen mode (by clicking on the player picture on the bottom), and click on the speed. A pop-up screen will appear and you can drag the speed to the right (faster) or to the left (slower).
Stop Scrolling And Start Listening!
Newsly is the new way to explore the news on the web!

Exciting isn't it?
Big fan of the App
This is a great idea! So far so good with using the app!
Where have you been all my life?
I can’t say enough about this app Newsly. What are unique concept, yet why didn’t someone else think of it? All of your news and headlines are crawled by this app and available at your fingertips. It’s very customizable, and far better in my opinion than the iPhone news app and others out there. So if you’re going to spend money, even though you could use it free, it’s better to spend your money on this app. Truth be told, my favorite part of it is the fact that it reads news to me in a natural voice so I don’t have to sit there and scroll and read everything myself. Also, it even has podcasts! What news app does that?! Michael, host of the MICRO BREAK podcast!

Great app
Great handy app to get your news and podcasts. I like to know about the news but I’m usually too busy to read so this app is super handy.

Hi Matty, thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoy using our app!
Love the Podcasts page
This app has helped me a lot. I love listening on the go!
Great app!
It’s really easy to use and it makes it so much more convenient for me to keep up with everything.
Great UI, More Features Would be a Plus
The App feels great, it works seamlessly with the Apple Watch and AirPods for audio control, the ad-free option is nice, and the setup is simple. It would be nice to see future updates, but this app is off to a great start.
For example, I like to download podcasts for flights or long trips that go through mountains, or places where my carrier is less-than optimal. A “Downloaded” section, perhaps with some limitation on how long the file stays on the device based on how long it’s been since the file has been played, would be a nice additional feature.
That would be the main checkpoint on my Wish-List. The ability to share an audio file/link attached to a specific timecode would be convenient when sharing a segment of a long podcast with peers. Social features tend to have a compounding effect on application adoption, it seems.

Hey GibsonGuitarGuy. We were working just for you! Our new version now has a Download tab, under the activity page. You can now download any podcast for free. You are also able to download any article now for offline listening. Not just the free articles, but also the on-demand articles (topics you define and local news)
Great App
The functionality of this APP is amazing！
A great first effort
So often synthesized voices are really obvious and make the whole point of using them to read content to you pointless. They’ve done a nice job with the voice and I like the idea of an aggregated news feed that can read me stories of interest. The app is off to a good start. I look forward to more voices and expanded content.

Great app for accessibility
App offers functionality for accessibility to all users, also great UI. Switching from grid view to list view is seamless, many apps offer this option. But it’s a few button clicks. This one just takes one.
Great experience!
A unique app for enjoying podcasts and articles. The UI looks nice, it’s easy to use and works well!
Convenience is Key!
Newsly makes catching up on news articles easy and convenient! Could not recommend this app enough for those that are always on the go.
Love this app!
In my busy schedule there is hardly ever time to actually read the news. Thank you Newsly! Now I can listen to the news while doing my chores or out running errands.
Wonderful app
I love this app and it’s so helpful! Thank you Newsly for giving me my daily news . Grateful and blessed for this OG app.
