Short audio news, one after another

Press play. Hear what’s new. Keep moving.

Nytt is a simple iPhone and CarPlay player for the short audio briefings you choose. It finds the newest update from each feed, plays them in your order, then tells you when you are up to date.

Your briefing, not another podcast library

Set it once. Start it in a second.

Nytt does not bundle a catalog, recommend shows, or ask you to browse while you are getting into the car. You add the feeds and decide the order beforehand.

A deliberate limit

Short enough to remain a briefing.

Every queued episode must be 15 minutes or shorter. Long programs stay out of the way, and a source with no current short episode is simply skipped.

  • One newest episode per feedNo backlog and no accidental hour-long queue.
  • No unnecessary repeatsAn item you already heard stays finished until that feed publishes something newer.
  • A clear endingWhen the queue is complete, Nytt says, “You’re up to date.”
Designed for the car

Nothing important to configure while driving.

Wired and wireless CarPlay use the same quiet experience. Feed addresses, switches, and ordering stay on the iPhone. In the car, Nytt is reduced to the briefing, the queue, and familiar playback controls.

  • Play the latestOne obvious action rebuilds the queue from your enabled feeds.
  • Now PlayingSee the source and episode without a custom dashboard full of controls.
  • Continue naturallyCalls, directions, and other audio interruptions use the normal iPhone audio rules.

Your briefing

Three short updates · ready

Nothing to sign into

Your feeds stay between you and your phone.

Nytt is being designed without an account system, advertising, analytics, telemetry, tracking, or a Verkheim server.

Local

Settings remain on the iPhone.

Feed addresses, their order, enabled state, and listened history are stored only inside Nytt’s local app data.

Direct

Your phone contacts your feeds.

Nytt requests only the RSS and audio addresses you entered. There is no Verkheim service in the middle.

Quiet

No permission scavenger hunt.

No microphone, location, contacts, photos, camera, tracking, or notification access is needed for the core experience.

The name

A small word for what is new.

Nytt is Norwegian for news, or what is new. It belongs beside Skriv, Saga, Skue, Bro, Vern, and Rydd: a short Scandinavian name broad enough for the idea, but quiet enough to stay out of its way.

In development

Nytt is not available to download yet.

This page is an early look at the idea and design direction. Nytt is being built as a native iPhone app with a CarPlay experience; there is no public beta, App Store listing, or application file on this website at this point.
