O6 consists of channels such as emails, twitter, pocket, news and more that narrates your content to you. You can scroll and browse through your emails and content, just as you normally do but with the added benefit of eyes free experience. You can also respond to messages, get directions, call phone numbers, and more.

● New Channels and features added every month
