Just recast them and get back a wonderfully crafted conversation.

What others say
Don't just trust us. Trust random people from the internet!
Recast has been a great addition to my morning routine. I can quickly listen to summaries of articles while getting ready for the day, which helps me stay informed without cutting into my busy schedule.
Paola Jacobson
Recast has helped me make the most of my downtime. Instead of mindlessly scrolling through social media, I can now listen to informative summaries of articles that I've been meaning to read.
Jessica Nguyen
I love the recast but can only give 4.5 stars because there are definitely not enough meerkats in the app.

How to recast?
Recasting is simple. Get the app, signup, and discover interesting stories.
But wait, there is more! To feel the real recast magic, go ahead and recast some articles yourself. Just find one of the articles you want to know what's inside (but would never get to reading because who has the time) and use the in-app browser in the recast app, the share sheet in Safari on your iPhone or the Chrome Extension on desktop.
You press the recast button, we add some magic, and voilà, your awesome recast convo will appear in your app and inbox.
