Audio Summaries: Listen When You Can't Look at the Screen
AI reads an article's summary aloud, and playback starts in a few seconds. Keep up with your feeds on a commute or a walk without looking at the screen.
Audio Summaries: Listen When You Can't Look at the Screen
On a crowded train, on a walk or while cooking, it's hard to read from a screen. With audio summaries, AI reads an article's summary to you. When it's done, you can decide whether to go back and read the full article.
How to listen
Open an article and choose Audio Summary from the More menu. Playback starts within a few seconds, without waiting for the whole summary to be generated.
The player appears at the bottom of the article. You can pause, skip back 15 seconds and change the playback speed. Playback continues after you leave the article or lock your phone, and you can control it from the Lock Screen.
Play it again
Audio summaries you've generated are saved on your device, so playing one again doesn't generate it again.
AI uses
Each audio summary you generate uses 1 AI use. Audio summaries are part of Premium.
