This is great, I've been listening to stories on Instapaper for a while. @gavindinubilo how did you get the web app to continue playing even when the lock screeen is on? Is that a media type you can define in the HTML?
@matthartman hey Matt! Thanks for the kind words. I just used the default js audio API for playing (did a similar thing with Songfari) and safari will add media controls. One thing I wish they'd add though is being able to set custom data for the media screen.
Hey Hunts! Volume is a website and iOS app (I'm sorry Android, maybe soon) that curates startup and tech stories posted to Medium and turns them into audio. I've found them perfect to listen to on my way to work.
The reason I built this is because I love reading Medium but recently I haven't had enough time in my schedule to read through them, so I made an app to read it to me. Let me know what you think!
