Agora 2

Thanks for making a slick app that still works on older hardware and iOS!

Thank you.

Beautiful app, extremely well crafted. Missing the option to create smart playlists, like if I want to play only my news podcasts together from oldest to newest. To do so I think I would need to manually create a custom playlist each time, but these podcasts update every day and sometimes multiple times a day. Maybe I’m missing something. Missing a now playing screen that overtakes the playlist. Search isn’t clear how to filter, images too small in list view. I’m critical because I love it, does that make sense?

It’s beautiful and refreshing against all the other popular podcast apps. I wish the searching supported auto-complete though and while the minimal design is beautiful, I found some of the settings to not be as intuitive? Like whether I had actually turned the dynamic theme on or off... I feel like denoting this through red to green colours might make that clearer without compromising on the minimal design. Sometimes things also feel a bit slow with the fade transitions when navigating between the options in the menu bar, like going from settings to search

Beautiful user interface, top notch user experience, and overall amazing service

Only need a few additions to be 5 star in my opinion: - Now Playing screen (I think the podcast artworks would shine with this minimal design) - Ability to change the timeframe for the skip forward/backward buttons - Per podcast settings to automatically send episodes to the bottom/top of the playlist - Support for Chapters - Better refreshing of podcast (episodes seem to show up a bit later than in other apps) Sidenote: The restore purchase feature doesn’t work (bought a "coffee" last week, features were unlocked but then I deleted/re-installed the app and now I’ve lost the new icons/themes and can’t restore the purchase)

The design of Agora is nice reprieve of all the me-too podcast apps that tend to look alike. With that said there are few underlying issues that I found after using it for a couple of days. The settings are not quite intuitive and when I tap on "How Agora Works", the interface afterward is every bit as confusing. Another issue is when I Airplay a podcast onto external speakers. There's constant drop-outs that I don't get from another podcast app or when I'm playing Apple a Music. Also it would help if there's some kind of indicator telling me that I've downloaded an episode. I'm hoping all those underlying issues will be fixed/improved at some point but for now, it's a promising app that's beautifully designed.

Playback is finicky at best on my iPhone X. Unfortunately, playback is at the core of your app. Also, I « bought you a coffee » to get some extras but when I re-opened the app, I lost the privileges and it now says that I never bought you any and restoring purchases throws an error. You might have the most awesome looking app and the best UI/UX on the app store but if the back-end doesn’t work properly and consistently, I find it hard to justify using it let alone paying for it. I hope you’re going fix this as soon as you can because don’t get me wrong, your app has huge potential. 👍🏻

Unfortunately, it looks like playback has been broken for a while now. On my iPhone X at least, I'm unable to keep audio playing when the app is in the background or when the screen is off. Hope it's resolved soon, keep up the good work!

That July for making an app that has great content AND is easy (and a pleasure) to use. Great value in the price rather then paying yearly for Castro or Overcast. I’ve been using this ALL THE TIME!!!! Thankyou 😘😘😘
