@ma7moudfelfe This is really great love it. Edit: I added audio by mistake in the wrong language, is there an option to change this to another language or how could I correct my mistake? Thanks for your help!
@tobiasfrydman Thanks for trying it, If it is just one article, you can edit it and remove the Embedded player, save the changes, then refresh the page and you will see the "Publish with audio" button again in the editor.
Please try and let me know if you still have any issues.

@ma7moudfelfel I deleted the embedded player, but when I want to add audio and change the language settings before "publish with audio" it will ignore them and publish in English language. Not sure what I'm doing wrong?
@tobiasfrydman Sorry for the inconvenience, please email me at mahmoud@play.ht the article url and I will change the audio for you, and we can check further why this issue is happening.
Play for Medium gets a major update to support Medium writers!
Hello Product Hunt!
We are excited to announce a major feature we built in the Play for Medium Chrome Extension that allows any Medium writer to embed an Audio version of his/her article with just 1 click of a button - Publish with Audio!
Since we launched the Play for Medium Chrome extension [https://www.producthunt.com/post...], many Medium writers have been using our internal tools to convert their articles to audio and embed them in their articles. But the process to do this has been quite cumbersome as they had to copy and paste links and jump between windows. This feature makes it ridiculously easy for any writer to add Audio to their Medium articles.
We hope the Medium writers in here find it useful.
Please give it a try and let us know your feedback.
Cheers!

This doesn't replace what Medium does. Robots reading text is like listening to the Google maps AI pronounce street names. Voice acting requires something that robots can't do yet: act. Human narrators are superior to robot narrators for the near future.
My favourite part of this is being able to listen to articles from the Medium list view, without even opening the actual article page..I didn't expect that to work, and was well surprised 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
- just realised this only happens on a user's medium profile, e.g. https://medium.com/@joulee

Reading articles while working is a really big pain. This extension / plugin was the simplest solution I found :)
Pros:I listen more then 60+ articles per month
Simple and intuitive
Cons:Only on desktop
Need improvement in buffering
Amazing idea :)
Pros:There is so much content to consume on Medium, but hard to do during work since you could only read. This solves that for me!
Cons:Only for desktop. Would love this for my commute.

Love the idea but user experience needs to be improved for better adoption
Pros:Great concept to quickly soak in content, especially when at work
Cons:Buffering takes quite some time. I have been waiting for 5+ minutes for the audio to buffer on this current Medium article
