Hey guys!
After the Chrome Extension (https://www.producthunt.com/post...) we have been working on this Web platform (and mobile apps) for listening to articles.
The idea is to be able to consume content from Medium and other curated blogs (e.g. Paul Graham's essays here) as Audio, and be able to create Playlists.
We know a lot of you guys have been waiting for mobile apps, and we just want to inform that they are on their way, a week or two at most and they should be out. Don't forget to Sign Up for the apps if you haven't done so already!
The product is all yours now and we are all ears for feedback :)
Cheers guys!

@hammadh4 Simple and clean! Loving it! I specially love that you have a separate design category <3 Would have been seriously awesome if there was a "play all" option for a category!

Took me about 5 seconds to know I needed this.
Nice work!
@matsilva Amazing :) let us know if you have any feedback or suggestion.

@ma7moudfelfel Thanks again. I already know I am going to be using this during my commutes. I like having the desktop to build playlists for me to take on the go.
I know you are just getting started, I'll try to be as helpful as I can, I am sure you probably have some of this stuff in the pipeline.
Issues:
- Subscribing via twitter for mobile (android) seems to fail.
Features:
My needs mostly have to do with curating playlists, so just more robust playlist features.
- Build playlist from authors
- Bulk add to playlist
- Etc etc to edit/add to playlists (I am sure you get the idea)

@ma7moudfelfel Also going to be testing this out on my phone as I relax in the hot tub tonight! Pretty excited about that.
This is interesting. I love listening to articles rather than reading them. Thanks for this.
I am using this on Android as a progressive web app. The "DOWNLOAD OUR ANDROID APP" button at the bottom which is impossible to dismiss is annoying.
@adeekshith Thanks for your feedback.
It should be replaced with "Your Playlist" button if you're logged in, but yeah you are right, it is better to remove it if you're inside the progressive web app.
it's wild to hear a machine reading my words! https://play.ht/#/users/7f91547c... To me, the future digital story should be able to be consumed as either text, audio or video; whatever is preferred by individual. This is interesting step in that direction. Props @hammadh4 & @ma7moudfelfel.
Awesome work guys!
I had an issue with the signIn
Most chrome users "Block 3rd party cookies and site data"
I was getting this message
"This browser is not supported or 3rd party cookies and data may be disabled. Dismiss"
So I had to re-enable it,
Now everything is working perfectly!
I will be waiting for the Android App
keep up!
Pretty good stuff.
If you guys would like to drive traffic from google via SEO implement this some simple changes on site:
1 - No # in urls, google will not index URLs with #
2 - Serve unique Meta & OG tags (title, thumbnail & description) for each page. Along with SEO it will also look good when links are shared in social media.
