The app pulls Substack subscriptions into a single inbox.
“The app helps bring together Substack as an ecosystem, giving you an icon to tap on your home screen that opens up a treasury of quality work by the writers you most trust,” the company writes.
Some features in the app are designed to help readers find new publications. Adjacent to the inbox is a “Discover” tab with suggestions for readers by categories like culture, politics, and sports. The featured “this week” section includes newsletters by Patti Smith and Bari Weiss, among others. The app is also something of a step away from email: users of the app can pause email delivery of newsletters, instead opting to only receive mobile notifications. Substack says emails will automatically resume if a reader stops using the app.
In its announcement, Substack puts itself in stark contrast with other platforms like Craigslist, Google, and Facebook that have “eroded the media business and stripped writers — and other culture makers — of their financial dignity.” The company has pitched itself as a place where writers can fully own their work and their mailing list — and leaving is easy if they so choose.
Though the app is geared more towards readers , Substack emphasizes that the app benefits writers, too, especially around growing their audience. But though readers can subscribe to new publications via the app, they can’t upgrade to a paid subscription or subscribe automatically at a paid level, presumably to avoid Apple’s 30 percentSign up for the newsletterPlease confirm your subscription to Verge Deals via the verification email we just sent you.
