At Touch Tree, we’re constantly refining our platform to help publishers deliver better digital experiences — faster, smarter, and more seamlessly across devices. Over the past few months, we’ve rolled out several exciting updates designed to make creating, distributing, and monetising digital editions even easier.
Here’s a look at five recent developments that are helping publishers get more from Touch Tree:
1. Automated Feature Articles
Our new automated feature articles tool makes it simple to highlight key content from your digital editions. The platform can now automatically extract and format feature stories, presenting them as standalone, mobile-optimised articles that are easy to share across social media, email newsletters, or websites.
This not only increases content visibility but also drives traffic back to your full editions, extending the reach of your brand and your advertisers.
2. New Interstitial Timed Ads
Monetisation just got more flexible. The new interstitial timed ads allow you to insert short, engaging ad placements between articles or pages, set to display for a specific duration.
Publishers can use this to promote subscription offers, highlight key partners, or deliver sponsor campaigns — all without disrupting the reader experience. It’s a simple but powerful way to boost ad revenue within your digital editions.
3. Unlimited PDF Uploading
We’ve removed the limits. You can now upload as many PDFs as you need, making it easier than ever to manage archives or multiple publications within a single account.
Whether you’re digitising a back catalogue or publishing frequent special issues, this update saves time, improves workflow, and keeps all your content organised and accessible in one place.
4. Updated Podcast Player
Audio content continues to grow in popularity, and our updated podcast player ensures your readers can enjoy it effortlessly. The new design is cleaner, faster, and integrates more smoothly within your digital editions — allowing you to embed episodes directly alongside articles.
It’s a great way to add depth to your storytelling and keep readers engaged for longer.
5. Updated Desktop Reader
While mobile remains a key focus, we know many readers still prefer a desktop experience — particularly for business, trade, and educational content. Our updated desktop reader brings a fresh, modern layout with improved navigation, responsive design, and faster loading times.
The result is a smoother, more enjoyable reading experience across all screen sizes, perfectly aligned with the Touch Tree commitment to accessibility and ease of use.
The Bottom Line
Each of these updates is part of our ongoing mission to empower print in a digital world — helping publishers modernise their offerings, expand reach, and create more engaging reader experiences.
