## Castamatic Podcast Player Reviews in United States

### ***** "My new favorite podcast app"
This is my new podcast app of choice. But I would love to be able to filter out entire episodes by keywords or phrases such as ,"BONUS" or "You may also like:", in order to block promoted episodes from other podcasts.
-- Commandercool, 2025-07-06

### ****- "Overall best app with one flaw"
I love this app. It has all the podcasting 2.0 features and uses native components which looks and feels very polished. 

There is one downside, when playing on Bluetooth in the car, if you turn off the car while playing a podcast (without pausing it beforehand) there is a chance that the app will get confused and loose your place. Next time the app starts up the podcast starts from the beginning!

If this can be fixed the app would be perfect!

Update: thank you for for the developer response! Unfortunately I am still having this issue, I had it on my old car stereo system and still have this issue on the new one which is CarPlay enabled. Let me know if there is any way I can send detailed debug data somehow to help track this down.
-- AndreiT123, 2025-04-13

### ****- "Buggy unfortunately"
Many times audio doesn’t stop when I take out my AirPods. Also it has lost my place 5-10 times this week and starts from the beginning. (March 7 2025).
-- Justin8156, 2025-03-08

### ****- "Great app"
Super simple to operate and lots of options. Would like to see and option to hide podcast that have no new episodes to keep the list condensed
-- Papa Ursa, 2025-01-06

### ****- "Great! What about RSS?"
This is a great app! Well designed, stable car play, and podcasting 2.0 features. However, I can’t seem to find any way to add an RSS feed.
-- ItRockets, 2024-08-29

### ****- "Best podcasting app - but…"
I keep loosing my spot on a podcast. It’s specially annoying while driving. Good luck getting to the point in a 3h podcast where the app lost it. I’m a premium user but switched back to Apple podcast just now. Hope you fix it.
-- Laca90028, 2024-07-28

### ****- "I love it, but…"
I can only say that it is one of the best applications for listening to podcasts, by far. I give it a 99%. That 1% to be perfect that it lacks is because I can only play podcasts on AirPlay compatible devices, therefore to listen to podcasts on my Nest Mini speakers, I have to use Pocket Casts. If this functionality could be added, I would not hesitate at all to subscribe and support the creator.
-- elavdeveloper, 2024-07-17

### ***** "Future of podcasting"
If you’re on iOS and want to see what podcasting 2.0 is all about Castamatic is worth checking out.
-- Mark Pugner33, 2024-04-21

### ***-- "Almost Perfect!"
Loving this app, but had to drop my rating after extensive use. There is no way to quickly select multiple episodes for download, and the swipe ability is too touchy to be reliably used consistently. Wish we could manually set actions for swipe L/R. Also need a badge that shows # of downloaded ep for podcasts - not # not listened avail. Finally, need to be able to display just downloaded episodes (like you can do with show/hide listened). Finally, the app has gotten sluggish and unresponsive since I've added my full list of podcasts I follow. Would love to work with the developers on testing and new features.
-- Colpin, 2024-04-18
