The getAbstract app just got a little friendlier:
* We revamped our onboarding portal for new users. A three-step process makes it easy to indicate your preferences – so that our content suggestions match your interests.
* The audio play & playlist buttons on the summary pages also got a little makeover.
* We know you’d rather listen to a human than a robot. Since our audio summary collection has grown a lot, we got rid of the TTS function in our app.
* Since you may be interested to know if a summary also exists in a different language, we will now indicate so at the bottom of the summary page.

getAbstract is gearing up for fall with the launch of our new app version 9.3.0.
• As the days get shorter, so, hopefully, will your browsing experience. Our latest app version comes with improved filtering and sorting; better visualization of active filters and removed content settings; and the option to set multiple languages while only the display language is set by default (like on the web).
• As the weather turns more grey, our channel page designs will look more appealing.
Happy fall and stay in touch,
Your getAbstract team
