This Awesome App Turns Any Article Into a Podcast

How many times do you bookmark a great article you come across online that you plan to read later but never do because you just don’t have time right now? Or ever.

And so it disappears into the abyss of your online library.

Podcasts, though, are a whole new appeal. They allow you to acquire the same benefit for half the effort – a millennial’s dream.

Which is why we love Narro, a text-to-speech app that turns (almost) any article into a pretty listenable podcast.

You simply need to paste an article’s URL to have it instantly converted into an audio stream that can be played back from your home feed.

Here’s what a reading of this article sounds like (don’t mind the British accent):

 

You can choose from over 25 voices with automatic detection of over 10 languages and even download the podcasts for later listening. The free version allows you to convert 15 articles a month, while the $10/month pro version gives you unlimited podcasts with a whole bunch of other cool features.

Happy listening.
