What reviewers say about Recast

Reviews praise Recast for turning long reads into engaging, dialogue-style audio that’s ideal for commutes, workouts, and screen-free mornings. Users highlight natural-sounding voices, useful recommendations, and an easy share-sheet workflow. Common asks: more customization, clearer feature explanations, broader language support, and options to tweak tone/voice “temperature.” Some report regional availability issues and concerns about whether content handling respects copyright. Despite an isolated “retired” report, most say it’s reliable and time-saving, replacing overflowing read-later tabs with a curated, fast queue they actually finish.

This AI synopsis blends highlights gathered from recent reviewers.

Who could know my favorite podcast is my read-later list?!😁 Great job every one. Really love the product!

Thanks for sharing this app!

If the app reads out articles without the author's consent, isn't that treading on thin ice with copyright? I guess your app dodges that bullet by rephrasing and summarizing articles piece by piece, right? Would love some expert insights on this! 🤔
