I love the ability to have all of my favorite podcasters in one place. I REALLY wish it would remember where I left off. When I have to stop and come back later it can be frustrating to find the last podcast I was in the middle of. I also wish it would keep track […]

It is used to be a great app. Now it shuts off after one min. No longer able to listen to a complete episodes without having to restart it every single minute. I even did the 7 day free trial thinking it was some ploy that requires the upgraded plan. Nope. Still shuts off after […]

I pay the annual fee to get rid of apps. It’s great, and my only complaint for a while was that my car wouldn’t stay connected if I had to pause an episode. After one of the recent updates, I don’t have that trouble anymore. My favorite thing about this app is I can download […]

The app freezes if you have to pause it for a minute or two, which makes using this intermittently while at work pretty difficult. It makes you close out and scroll back to find where you left off. I’m bingeing a 300 episode podcast so this is more than a minor inconvenience. I’m sure there’s […]

It is nice to have a free podcast app with just about every podcast and episode your heart desires. Sometimes the app just stops playing in the middle of an episode, sometimes several times during the same episode, regardless of how good phone service is or if it was downloaded. But by far my biggest […]

have been using this app for over a year. loved it!. a month ago, the app started playing short ads before the start of a p-cast. I could live with that. A week ago, 30 second ads would start playing in the middle of a p-cast, an unwelcome distraction. Yesterday, I noticed that when resuming […]

It’s a great app! Easy to use, reliable, and no bugs. The only problem i have is when an episode ends it automatically deletes it from my downloads. I fall asleep listening to podcasts sometimes. I have to search for and download the episode again the next day. Slight hassle, but would be great if […]

I have been using this app for a couple years now and for a while it was fine. I even pay $15 a year for it. But for some time now, every podcast in my favorites takes forever to load. The play button just spins and spins as if it’s buffering and sometimes it does […]

I really love this app, and I’m happy to pay the subscription to eliminate the ads. Two suggestions for the devs if they’re listening: 1. What would be really useful is a “repeat” mode when playing a downloaded podcast. I often use this app as a sleep aid, and it would be nice to just […]

I’ve been using this app on my old phone for some time and really liked it. I had a lot of podcasts loaded, but when I put the app on another device (because my phone seems to be dying) none of my content showed up at all, even though I followed the prompt on Google […]

The things I appreciate about this app: 1) The adds for the free version are visual only, not auditory. 2) When my podcast finishes, if there are more recent episodes to play, it plays them. 3) When my podcast finishes, and there are not more recent episodes to play, it does not start playing random […]

SO SLOW, always glitchy. There is a good selection of podcasts, but the loading speed is a joke. I’ve tried to search for podcasts advertised on the app, but the app is so slow, I end up trying to find them on other providers, such as wondry. I don’t pay for premium, so I don’t […]

I’ve been using this app for about 6 months. it has all the podcasts I like to listen to. I have a few problems with it though. if anything interrupts my listening such as a phone call, instead of my podcast resuming I have to manually go back into the app and begin playing again. […]

Very intuitive and easy to use when it comes to finding new podcasts and ones that I already love. But the queue system needs some work… It’s clunky and cumbersome to have to sift through every show I listen to just to see if there’s a new episode, I’d like the option for it to […]

I find the UI layout easer to navigate than any other free podcast player. It is simple to see what has been played and dowoaded. However, full screen ads with a tiny close “x” in the upper left or right corner, is very annoying! I do not see where I can purchase an ‘up graded’ […]

Update!! The changes they made to this app makes it sooo slow and awkward to use! It takes forever for the app to catch up to the action I try to initiate. Slow and lagging. Love! this app! My computer broke and I can not download itunes in my loaner computer….so I was trying to […]

I like this app. But it seems that with every update, I have more and more issues. When I open it, it sends me to the search option like I’m a new user. Then, I have to tap in and out of all my podcasts to get any options. I have to wait for who […]

Basic podcast player, without speed control. There are only a couples things that seem to be basic features for a podcast player. 1) Selection and 2) speed controls. The Podcast App has selection but you can only listen at normal speeds. I am a regular listener of podcasts and I usually prefer to listen at […]

I used to enjoy this app a lot, first downloaded it a few years back. Now it is too frustrating to use since they added so many more ads. Can only click two or three times before a timed ad pops up, and it’s programmed now to do this over and over. Unfortunately, I had […]

I finally had enough. Maybe I’m too used to using ITunes. But I was annoyed when I saw the episodes saved for later listening hadn’t or were they deleted or did they just evaporate? And you can’t organise the order you want to listen to the episodes. Now, hopefully, when I uninstall, it’ll delete all […]
