I also have wanted to build this, but instead of voice controlled, perform thread navigation using the AssistiveTouch SDK for Apple Watch. [1]

I released a product yesterday that handles all aspects of the URL to speech process called Chief of Staff. [2]

The initial version only synthesizes article text alone.

I found there is a great deal of nuance to text to speech synthesis, from the player behavior itself to handling quotas around cloud services.

My goal is far greater flexibility and features—-a genuine Chief of Staff that briefs you on information you care about in a format and medium that beats suits your.

Thread reading is just one application of this.
