A little more about Elseleaf

Before you
settle in.

What can I bring into Elseleaf?

Follow publications from the directory, add a website or RSS feed, and explore programmes from participating publishers. Readable content depends on what each source makes available.

Who reads the stories?

Choose a newsreader and Elseleaf generates narration on your device. Programmes can also include recordings supplied by the publisher.

Can I use it when I’m offline?

Prepare the stories and media you want before you go. Downloaded content can be read or played offline when its required assets are available. Fetching new stories, following links and initial voice preparation may need a connection.

Does Elseleaf replace my news subscriptions?

No. Elseleaf is another way to enjoy available stories. It does not unlock paid articles or replace a publisher’s subscription.
