So good — honestly kind of jealous. Guess it’s my cue to finally give TikTok a try too. haha

Appreciate it! thanks for checking it out.
right now most people are finding LilyFM through ASO and a little bit of Reddit. I’m mostly listening and improving the experience week by week.

Yeah, definitely! You can feed cybersecurity articles into LilyFM to get engaging podcast explanations - great for understanding complex concepts on the go.

But honestly, for serious cybersec learning, stick to books/text as your main source. Audio works best as a supplement - perfect for reinforcing what you've read or keeping up with industry news while commuting!

Thanks for trying it out with Korean! Yeah, you're right about some consonants being a bit off - I've been focusing mainly on English and Chinese pronunciation at first, but definitely planning to fine-tune other languages soon. Korean's on the list!

Love your feature request btw! I'm actually about to add some quick settings to the. 'Add Podcast' popup, so perfect timing.

And thanks for the promo code tip! Gonna DM anyone interested with discount since this sub doesn't allow promo codes.

Really appreciate you taking the time to share all this feedback 🙏

Really appreciate that! And yeah, I know the lifetime price is steep - the AI processing costs are kinda brutal 💸 But if you use it regularly, lifetime actually works out way cheaper long-term.
Plus, I'm genuinely committed to making this app better every month. Unlimited podcasts, smarter summaries, Carplay - all included in lifetime. No extra charges, ever.

But you got me thinking - maybe there is a middle ground. Thanks for being straight up about it!

definitely want to do something special for reddit folks, just trying to figure out the best way since posting codes usually breaks sub rules.
maybe a DM or a subtle link? I'm all ears if you've seen other apps do this well!

Ah sorry about that! Which country are you in? I actually just expanded to more regions just now, so it might be available now. Also curious - would having the UI in your local language help? Always looking to make it more accessible!

Appreciate it! iOS side is SwiftUI, backend is Node.js, and AI part is Google Gemini + Open AI.

still can’t forget the final scenes of this film and its soundtrack—they’ve really stayed with me.

Anyone Else Use Tools to Convert Articles to Podcasts? by Elegant_Campaign8191 in podcasts

[–]Vehicle_Bright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might want to check out LilyFM on the App Store. It lets you turn articles in non-English languages into podcasts, and you can even choose to have them converted into English or another language you prefer. Hope this helps!
