Today, Apple is rolling out some interesting features for Apple News and Apple News+ subscribers. Chief among these new features are audio stories, which will see Apple offering audio recordings of select long-form content from a variety of sources. On top of that, there’s also a new daily news briefing that all listeners will be able to check out, along with the addition of more local and regional news outlets.
Audio Stories are launching today and are more or less an alternative way to get the news. As the name suggests, these are recordings of long-form articles, only the recordings are done by professional voice actors. Audio Stories will use long-form pieces from publications like Esquire, Essence, Fast Company, QG, New York Magazine, Sports Illustrated, TIME, Vanity Fair, Vogue, and Wired, along with newspapers such as the Los Angeles Times and The Wall Street Journal.
