The IrelandiOS version of the popular Chinese super app WeChat has recently been updated with a beta version, introducing a new feature called “Read Out” that allows readers to “listen” to published text articles. Upon activation, this feature automatically reads the page’s content aloud, providing users with an audio playback option. The interface offers various controls, allowing users to manage playback progress, adjust reading speed, navigate forwards or backward, return to the article page, or access the playback list. Users can add an article to a “Listen Later” list to save it for later listening. Accessing this feature is simple: users can pull down from the WeChat homepage, and a “Music and Audio” menu will appear at the top of the page. When the “Audio” option is selected, users can view the articles saved for later listening. This feature is currently in the testing phase and is accessible only to a limited number of users.
