Readio - Listen to the web

About

Readio turns the articles you read into audio you can listen to - like building a personal podcast feed from anything on the web. Share a link from Safari, paste a URL, or subscribe to an RSS feed, and Readio handles the rest. Built entirely on-device. Runs on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Silicon Mac. No accounts. No tracking. No subscription. One price, yours forever.
