I am a long time user and was a happy use. However, since a couple of months, the bugs have been piling up. Thrown out of podcasts, queue gets emptied for some reason. This happens on a daily basis. Been looking for alternatives and that makes me sad.
Went downhill
This used to be a great app but after an abysmal redesign a few months back, it’s been nothing but misery. CarPlay is broken, so is the watch app, and the design is more cumbersome than it ever was.
The audio engine is the only reason this isn’t a one-star review.
the best
High Quality work, satisfied Premium subscriber.
Play next
I just miss the play next option so much.
Can’t get used to the whole queue stuff.
Also keeps throwing me out of podcasts.
But I suppose that’s just a small bugs.
Downgraded beta version
After a big code rewrite this app basically became a beta version of what's to come. With a lot of what the old app had no longer working or missing. I'm sure one day it will be back to what it once was. Until then, can't recommend, check out other options.
Fantastic application now already for so many years
I use this app now since launch and it remains my favorite podcast app. I just works all the time and is simple to use. Great!
Redesign success
The app is working great now, a few point releases into the rewrite. Like it!
Great update
Thank you for the reintroduction of the swipe UI in the Now Playing screen! Much more fluid to get to the chapter list.
Mise à jour majeure un peu compliquée, mais développeur réactif!
La grosse mises à jour de juillet/août a amené pas mal de petit soucis mais ces derniers ont été vite réglés avec des mises à jour.
Cela reste une des applications qui me font rester sur iOS, fait ce qu’on demande, et le fait bien.
J’ai repris l’abonnement premium vu le boulot effectué pour la mise à jour!
Best podcast app!
And thank you Marco for you focus on user experience ♡
