    No different to me than other apps, but recently will stop playing. When I go back hours later, will be fine
  • Search Functionality is awful

    Search accuracy is awful unless you are ultra specific. Try searching "New Height" and see where the New Heights podcast is in the suggestions. STILL no ability to sort episode search results by date. Claimed to be working on it 2 years ago.
  • Works great. No major downsides

    I’ve been happily using Pocket Casts for almost as long as I’ve used an iPhone. It’s an excellent app and very reasonably priced. There are fancier options out there, but this one looks nice, has just the right amount of features, and still gets updates. You can even use it on web. I would love the ability to bookmark snippets of audio with a single tap like some of the competitors.

    Love this app and it's ability to let you sort podcasts based on much you listen to them. It's beautifully designed, works well and allows you to access any podcast. Get it, you'll love it.
  • Switched from Overcast

    I was looking for a an alternative to Overcast because of UI/UX changes and tried a few apps. Pocket Casts was the best of them. Features like the play next/play last to add to the queue is fantastic. Also the ability to easily archive episodes puts it way above the rest.
  • Simply the best

    Best podcast app. A few issues with podcast specific queue settings being cleared but other than that awesome.
  • The best app if you listening between devices!
