Pocket Casts Reviews

Podcast App for Champions

HolgerMeier on

Longtime podcast fan and podcaster this my goto app.

Pocket perfection!

viljoenr on

South Africa

I have tried all the podcast apps out there, and sporadically retry them to ensure I’m not missing out. I always come back to Pocket Casts. So many useful features for someone who listens to a lot of podcasts, and rock solid stability. Highly recommended!

Pocketcast changed its App logo so no one can find it

App put its users last, by changing their App logo in June so you can’t find it.

Why?

I don’t care about your politics and virtue signalling, I never asked for this and I will not be renewing my subscription just to change this terrible icon back to default.

Goodbye

“Pride” month icon. App deleted, subscription cancelled. Goodbye.

Perfect app.

Intuitive, reliable & simple to use!

Great podcast app

Kapokkie on

I have been using it for two weeks now, and it seems to be the perfect podcast app for my needs. I decided to switch podcast app after the apple podcast app started to show some glitches/bug after I upgraded to ios16. I tried some other app before this one, but this one works the best for me.

Think it's time for an Apple TV app

I do

It's my life partner now...

Honestly I've been using pocket casts for nearly 5 years... I don't think I could ever change and of the devs ever need me a donation I'm happy to support this more. The app is fully featured the per podcast settings and customisation is just the best. You have a favorite podcast? Don't worry you'll only get a notification for it and it'll be at the top of the playlist at it's own listening speed... Too good. Have an app with an annoyingly long intro song... Set the skip time! And you'll never hear it again.

Delightful

I’ve been bouncing around podcast apps for months now and, as I return to pocketcasts, I must ask myself why I wasted all that time. This app is beautifully laid out, it works wonderfully and it allows me to easily access my podcasts. Happy customer, thank you!
