Great app!
I always listen to podcast during my work out and have to switch back-and-forth with music when I do cardio for instance. Now I can listen to both and it switches back-and-forth automatically. You can set them on a time you want it’s a switch and it works great.Hkgffghhh

Love it! Thanks for the review!Trouble with adding podcasts
App keeps crashing on the discovery section for podcasts making it impossible to add any, which kind of makes the app useless. I don’t currently use any of the integrated podcast platforms, though there is technically a way to still get podcasts from other services (just not easily from an i-device) I get it, Apple locks their devices down and I shouldn’t gripe about not having free rein over being able to easily port information over.
Another annoying issue is I connected Spotify and it can’t seem to see/find all my playlists. There’s a playlist I like that’s a fair bit down in my lists because I’ve saved a few (and I’ll admit it’s one of the oldest lists I have on there, but I still listen to it) this doesn’t find it.Show lesssmall hobbit

Thanks for your extensive feedback, it really helps us improve! So sorry you've been having issues with the app crashing. We've worked hard to get the app into a better shape, and hopefully you should not expect it crashing like this anymore. Also, the issue you are experiencing with your playlists is something we're looking into as well. Thanks again, and we'll circle back here when we have updates on the issue. Sorry you had to go through this annoying experience.Super useful for podcasts and hard sets
It would also be nice to have speeds up to 3.5x.Reviewer9408777

Way too late to the party, but thanks!UX is on point
As a full time web/mobile developer myself I gotta say the UX (user experience, or how the app is laid out and works) and UI are super clean and on point. Very intuitive. Only thing I wish it could do is hook into pocket casts and mark an episode as played, and/or maintain my listening history. But that’s a super nit picky thing to ask for, so I understand.Show lessHarryman04

Thanks for your feedback! Syncing playback state across apps would indeed be... amazing. Unfortunately there's no way to do that without partnering up with other apps. Hope it doesn't cause too much pain!Great App
Really needed this app! Tried listening to podcasts while lifting and since I usually listen to comedy, laughing in the middle of the set started to become really dangerous so this probably has saved my life!Excelede

That's literally one of the reasons we started building Shift. Thanks!Buffers and crashes
I'd love to support your awesome idea (which is the reason I'm not doing 1-star) but I've tried several times to get this working and have only had frustration with it. Hopefully you work out the bugs, I'll give it another try in a couple months. Best of luck.The Moves

We're truly sorry you experienced this. The app is in much better condition now, and we'd love for you to give us another chance!doesn’t work
I really like the idea behind it, and I enjoyed looking through the different things this app has to offer when I first downloaded it... now all it does is buffer then crash. It won’t let me do anything anymore.CoffeeSiren

Really sad to hear you had this experience! And so sorry for the (way too) late reply. Lots of bugs have been removed since you had this horrible experience. Hopefully it should all be much better now! Anyway, sorry again for the inconvenience, and thanks for giving us a review!Works perfect especially with AirPods.
Just finished my first workout and it this app was a game changer. I used its default settings. Chose a podcast. Connected Spotify. Found a playlist and started my workout. Lifted to music. Tapped my ear and switched to a minute of podcasts. When music came back I knew it was time to hit it. Then tap tap, and I’m back to podcast. Awesome.Show lessJmoney314
Simple and easy to use with some bugs
Came here from Reddit and loved it at first glance and the idea overall.
Went to Spotify and accidently closed the pop up window login, and it never pops back up ever again.
The UI for Spotify leaves a lot to be desired. I can’t search tracks or see my own playlist made in Spotify? Kind of crappy. Feels restricted and will probably keep me from using it unfortunately.
Would love to see support for SoundCloud and Audible.
Great start!Show lessFamiliar Joe
