Have you downloaded the Substack App Yet?

Here's another reason to read Substack on the official app.

Special Issue Tuesday, June 18, 2024

I was today years old when I learned that when you access a post on the Substack App, you can listen to it immediately without waiting for a special audio version to be published!

I know you receive our Substack posts by email, and that’s great. Many of you read our posts right from your phone.

But to get the best reading experience, including larger fonts, you really need to download and use the Substack app. I know what you’re thinking: another app?!?

Substack explains some of the benefits of using the Substack app on this page.

But now, you can also listen to AI-generated audio of the entire post you’re reading just by clicking on the little arrow at the top of the post. (I made a BIG arrow pointing to the little listening arrow at the top of the post.)

Isn’t that cool?

The app is free to download, and all of the “We Are Speaking” posts are also free to read for three days after publication. To have access to the complete archive 365/24/7 and financially support our writing, please upgrade to a paid level.
