Now with podcasts: 100+ shows including Invest Like the Best, Founders and Acquired, summarised the morning they drop.
Read your YouTube instead of watching it.
The Digest turns videos and podcasts from the channels you follow into articles you can read in a few minutes. Key takeaways first, then the write-up, then chapters you can jump between — so a 40-minute video becomes a 5-minute read, and you keep the part you actually wanted.
WHAT IT DOES
• Every new video from your channels, rewritten as an article
• Key takeaways up top, with timestamps into the moments they came from
• Chapter contents — read only the part you care about
• Podcasts too: 100+ shows across investing, business, technology, health, history and more
• Connect YouTube to bring your subscriptions across, sorted into playlists automatically
• Unread and Read, like a mailbox. Swipe to file.
• A running count of the hours you did not spend watching
BUILT FOR READERS
Follow other readers, and send them an article — or a single line from one — straight into a conversation. Share to Messages, WhatsApp or Instagram in a tap.
FREE AND PREMIUM
Read three articles a day and follow three channels for free. Premium removes both limits, unlocks search across every channel we cover, and imports your YouTube subscriptions.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple account settings.
I like using YD when I’m waiting on people.. it allows me to use my time effectively and catch up on all of my favorite content
No more YouTube FOMO
A DiVec
I love to get my news and education from YouTube. But I don’t always time to watch 5 hours of content per day to stay updated. I just open YD and it gives me summaries from all my favorite channels in a cool feed format. I can quickly open the app, and get caught up within a few mins by reading key insights and action items from all the new videos posted, and I can save my favorite summaries and insights. It also lets me listen to the audio if I don’t feel like reading. It’s a fun app and super easy to use.
The Digest is a complete rebuild.
Read your YouTube instead of watching it. Every video from the channels you follow becomes an article you can read in a few minutes, with key takeaways up top and chapters you can jump between.
