I then tried at least ten others before landing on Pocket Casts. I had been using the Apple Podcast app for years but finally ditched it because of syncing issues between multiple devices (no matter how I tweaked the settings). I don’t know if the gripes are legitimate or just people expecting absolute 100% perfection from an app, and a developer with a stellar, bug-free track record. Some are overly harsh for such minor inconveniences. I honestly don’t understand some of the negative reviews. You can change PocketCasts logo to be pocket cats! If your a serious podcast listener, you need PocketCasts. You can archive episodes and they don’t show up anymore (for example if you start listening to a daily news podcast you can archive all the previous episodes). I also just noticed that it had a sleep timer that you can set to different times or the end of an episode. 1x intervals, and being able to have custom settings for each podcast. Some of the other features that I didn’t realize I was missing in my life are: trim silence, volume boost (makes voices louder), changing playback speed in. Also, the interface is very easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. I have found a few new podcast that I like through the discover tab. It doesn’t auto play the next podcast if you don’t have it in your queue if you don’t want it to. You can add podcast to either the top or bottom of your queue, you can look at the podcast in your queue, and you can reorder them. But after about a week of using pocket cast I deleted Apple podcast. I have tried about 5 other apps that I didn’t really like and just went back to Apple podcast. About a year ago I started looking for a new podcast app because I had kindov outgrown the stock Apple podcast app. I don’t normally take the time to write reviews, but I like PocketCasts so much I decided to write one.
