Not Useful / Far Inferior to Similar Apps - Borderline scheme for Dev to make quick $$

Less than Basic!
The "new" podcast feature, isn't a feature at all so don't even waste your time! Maybe in future versions it will be but this is less than basic! There are way better apps out there!
If "personalized" means chosing a couple of basic topics for your news feed then this may work for you but that is about all you can do! Total waste of $5!

Hey! Sorry you feel this way. As a first version, itโs hard to implement a lot of features. View is primarily a news-first, podcast-secondary app but because of a lot of feedback, I can confirm that I am working on bringing podcasts up to date by adding features like playlists, queues, saving podcast location, OPML import, and more in the next big version 4.1. This version will also bring improvement to the recommendation system so itโs not just selecting an interest. Thanks for your feedback ๐
Itโs getting better all the time

Thanks for playing an active role in the App Store! Not many revise their reviews after their concerns were addressed. As always, my inbox is open if you want to suggest features or have suggestions or questions. Iโm committed to changing that 4 star review to a 5 star review ๐ P.S. iOS and macOS have different review systems so your changes here wonโt be reflected on the Mac App Store ๐
Cool!

Thanks!!
Very problematic

Hi DrPsych, Downloading podcasts is very simple. Itโs standard iOS and macOS behavior. Simply, swipe left on an episode to open the download menu. This does bring up a good point as I will start to develop a FAQ that can be accessed through the app to help users with similar queries. Thanks! ๐ While there is no podcast syncing and time mark saving as of now, I can confirm that I am actively developing this feature and more podcast-related features will be available in the next major version i.e. Version 4.1. Stay tuned (pun not intended) for this! The reason that Views is more feature-rich in its news section is because this app is primarily a news-first, podcast-second application. However, based on responses, I am working on bringing up the podcast player up to speed and I am adding a ton of new features for the next version! Thanks for sharing your thoughts! - Sai
