LoomLetter – an app to organize newsletters and listen on the go
Hi HN, I love newsletters. I first started signing up for Market Briefs right after COVID—trying to figure out why everyone was so scared of another market crash. It was exciting at first, but juggling a startup meant I couldn’t keep up, and soon my inbox was a mess of unread emails. I’d often ask myself: do I read them all, or delete and start fresh? That’s why I built LoomLetter—a simple iOS app that pulls in all your newsletter emails into one place, lets you organize them into custom lists, and even reads them aloud using AI. I built it as a one-man project to solve my own problem of…
