On-device narration now picks up where you left off. A smoother player, a clearer source list, and a new look for Junco.
Junco is an AI newsletter reader that turns email newsletters and RSS feeds into podcast-style episodes you can listen to anywhere.
Connect your newsletter inbox or add RSS sources, choose the writers and publications that matter, and Junco creates clear, listenable audio from the writing already waiting for you. It is built for people who subscribe to smart newsletters but rarely have time to sit down and read them.
Use Junco to:
- Listen to newsletters while commuting, walking, cooking, working out, or doing errands
- Turn long reads into podcast-style audio without copy-pasting articles
- Keep up with favorite writers, publications, Substacks, and RSS feeds
- Manage your sources in one place and tap a sender to turn new issues into episodes
- Build a personal audio library from sources you already follow
- Play in the background with lock-screen controls, and keep listening from the mini player
- Hear a more natural on-device voice on supported iPhones, with a built-in iPhone voice as backup
Instead of letting good writing pile up unread, Junco helps you turn it into something that fits your day.
How it works:
1. Connect your newsletter inbox or add RSS feeds.
2. Pick the senders and sources you care about.
3. Junco creates AI-generated podcast-style episodes.
4. Listen whenever reading is not convenient. On-device narration keeps going even if you step away mid-generation.
Junco Plus unlocks much greater episode creation after your free preview, with a 7-day free trial and monthly auto-renewing subscription. You can manage or cancel your subscription from your Apple ID settings.
Junco uses AI to generate scripts and audio from source material. AI-generated content can make mistakes, so check the original source before relying on anything important.
