Pocket Casts: Podcast Player

The thing about organizing podcasts in folders and working across different platforms and syncs very well? Yes.. that’s all I need.

Amazing that an app that cost $40 per year, and is competing against the free Apple app, does not have the foresight to offer a free pro trial for one week. Do you not realize that if you got people to set up folders and bookmarks that they would probably pay moving forward if they like the experience? I can’t believe I have to tell you this. I deleted it immediately.

Been around since this app wasn’t a subscription. Used to be the top app for podcasts and I loved it so much I’ve stuck with it for many years. Recently, the app now freezes and becomes unresponsive to any touch. Hoping the devs fix this soon

Came to review this just for adding no scrubbing on lock screen option. THANKS!

Getting a video podcast to play is big problem. I’ll hit play/pause several times, even full restart the app, and it still takes several tries to play the podcast. Other than that it’s pretty good. Update: downloading podcasts fixed. I did have the setting on before. Not sure why pocket casts would randomly change my setting

Downloaded episodes for podcasts you don't subscribe to can't be displayed in filters with all your other episodes. You have to go to Profile->Downloads and scroll to find the episodes. Been an unsupported feature for years. Why isn't this added by now????

Latest update auto rearranges my drag and drop and it’s insanely annoying. It was bad enough locking features behind a subscription on the app I’ve already paid for, but this might make me leave.

Absolutely the best podcast app you can use! Hope it continues to grow well into the future 😊

Been a user for years but now shuffle won’t turn off when toggling the icon. It might be time to say goodbye. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Words how long I’ve stuck with Pocket Casts given how it’s always got something wrong with it. This time it’s the widget — simply isn’t loading. Been an issue for a while now so developers know about it. Need to find another player.
