Outside of the new CarPlay app, today’s update to Instapaper also includes updates to its text-to-speech platform, including support to choose from multiple different text-to-speech voices. The CarPlay app will automatically detect custom Playlists, and you can access the Playlist from the top right of the Now Playing screen on CarPlay. Instapaper Premium subscribers can also manually create playlists via the CarPlay app:Īdditionally, Premium customers can use the Instapaper app to create a custom playlist by going to the More button in an article list, selecting Playlist, and choosing articles to play.

“With Instapaper Premium, selecting an article in CarPlay will automatically create a Playlist that allows you to listen to your articles one after the other,” the company explains.

Paid subscribers, however, get access to creating playlists. The Instapaper CarPlay app is available to free and premium Instapaper users. When you tap on one of them, the app will automatically start reading that article using Instapaper’s text-to-speech technology. In a blog post on Friday, Instapaper touted the new CarPlay app and explained that the app lets you view a list of your saved articles. You might be wondering how a reading-focused app translates to CarPlay, but it all comes down to text-to-speech technology. Instapaper, the popular read-it-later service, is now available via CarPlay.
