Turn articles from your RSS feeds into audio.
You will need to install the BeyondWords Player separately.
The RSS Feed Importer allows you to automatically convert articles from your RSS feeds into audio. Once enabled, BeyondWords will regularly check your feeds for new content and generate audio for each new article.
To get started go to Project > Settings > Integrations > RSS Feed Importer.
