Hey HN, I released my app Junco today to the iOS app store. Junco turns your newsletters emails and RSS feeds into short 2-5 minute podcast style episodes. You can listen to them while walking, commuting, showering, etc.

You can connect your gmail account to have them auto generated each day or use the email we give you. You also have the option to follow RSS feeds in the app "discover" section. Gmail access is read-only for only the senders you approve. This was one of the biggest hurdles as it requires a CASA level 2 security audit which was quite tedious and expensive ($750!!) but it was worth it for peace of mind.

Its free to try with a 3 day trial and then $5/month thereafter. My goal with this was not to replace reading but to help me follow the newsletters I already subscribe to daily and enable me to consume more diverse content that I don't have the time to read. Each episode includes a reader view back to the source article for those wanting further reading.

Would love any and all feedback on this, especially to those who have a lot of newsletter subscriptions. I'm happy to discuss any and all of the technical details of this application: railway, fastapi, swift, cloudflare, app store review process etc.
