NewsPlaya - the News App that Talks.

NewsPlaya subscribes and collates all the stories from your favourite sources. It then reads these aloud to you in a number of realistic voices. NewsPlaya is ideal for commuting, working out or simply relaxing at home.

MULTIPLE VIEWS

NewsPlaya presents your favourite content in three different views - so pick one that suits you or change to fit your mood. If you have an Apple TV (2nd or 3rd generation) you can stream NewsPlaya content using AirPlay mirroring. NewsPlaya supports iPhone, iPod Touch, Apple Watch and the iPad - which works great as a nightstand.

GO BEYOND THE STORY

NewsPlaya provides more context around the stories you read, by extracting keywords and overlaying content from Wikipedia and images from the web.

DEEP SEARCH AND NOTIFICATIONS

Find the articles you want quickly and efficiently. Double-tap on of your search phrases and NewsPlaya will notify you when something new arrives - even when in the background. Notifications will also appear on the Apple Watch.

CLOUD SYNC

NewsPlaya leverages iCloud to store your favourite news sources and read items, keeping all your devices in sync.

TWITTER SUPPORT

Connect your Twitter Account and NewsPlaya can read Tweets from your timeline. You can retweet, favourite and reply to Tweets all from within the NewsPlaya app.

VOICEOVER SUPPORT

NewsPlaya is fully accessible and integrates seamlessly with VoiceOver.

NEWSPLAYA PRO

This free version of NewsPlaya allows you to add up to 30 of your favourite feeds across any topic. NewsPlaya Pro lifts this restriction, giving you freedom to subscribe to all of your content.
