Perfect if you listen on an MP3 player
I recently got an MP3 player, and spent hours trying to find an easy way to automatically download new episodes of podcasts I listen to as mp3 files, so that I could easily transfer them to my device. Finally, I found this app and it is perfect!
a very small feature idea
Coming from old iTunes-based podcast listening. I use a non-Apple mp3 player (I don't carry a phone, long story). Since Apple's Podcast app is so over-simplified and user-hostile, and its display of information is so graphic based (I prefer dense text), I gravitated quickly to Mimir. I've only used it three times, but so far so gool
Suggestion: I'd like to restrict the display of recent episodes of each podcast, to say, the ten most recent. This lets me focus on relevant items, yet still maintains high density of information.
Thanks for the app! I'm considering upgrading to Pro, but want to use it a while longer.

Fantastic find
This is a gem hidden amongst the big podcast players. I love the 0-100 priority feature and the fact it’ll use my old man large system fonts setting. ❤️❤️❤️
Beyond amazing - Perfect Podcast App
This app is not only beautiful but feature rich.
- Play order/sort can be set per podcast not globally, love this
- CarPlay, love this
- Custom them colours, love this
- Auto downloads, love this
- Available on all my devices, love this
I would be lost without this app

Great if you listen to many shows
I've been looking for an iOS replacement for Podcast Addict for years and this is by far the closest. It's a bit feature-light but I haven't seen any bugs yet and the "groups" feature is exactly what I wanted: an easy way to organize my dozens of subscriptions.
Mimir, the one to rule them all
… or at lease make listening to podcasts and managing playlists much easier. I appreciate how easily I can create a queue of episodes on one platform and then pick it up on another.
Continued Bugginess Holds Mimir Back
I really like the layout and design of the Mimir app. Unfortunately it continues to have bugs that make it a less-than-ideal experience.
For example, when opening the app in CarPlay, the “Now Playing “ app often won’t play; a work-around that sometimes works is to manually play the next podcast episode, than go back. Another example: when managing podcast episodes (especially if you’re managing several at a time), the player interface may freeze momentarily or not reflect your changes. This often necessitates restarting Mimir. All of the little quirks together add up to an often frustrating experience.
Finally, I like the recent swipe interface changes to play next/last, and Mark as played/remove from playlist. That said, I’d like to see that expanded to the Now Playing/Next screen instead of only being accessible within each individual podcast.

Excellent app
I use it to download podcast onto an MP3 player. It's easy to use.
Best Podcast app
Tried at least a half dozen podcast apps. Mimir is the best so far. Syncs flawlessly between my Mac mini and iphone. Lets you import and export OPML file (list of podcasts). Just get it; you won't be sorry, it's great.
Response from developer
This is a great review, thank you! Very glad you are liking the app!
Glad to Find Very Good Podcast App
After using Mimir for the better part of a year, i've come to enjoy its layout, ideas and relaiability.
I've listened to podcasts for 18 years, since 2005, and iit's often hard to find a reliable and good podcast app, don't know why. Mimir is the best i've found.
I mostly use it for aggregating podcasts. I especially like the archive feature. Also helpful are the auto downloads.
A plus would be if i could rename the podcasts in the podcast list. This would enable better sorting and syncing with other apps that share the same file system. This way all the podcasts begining their title with "The" won't be grouped together.
When discovering podcasts it'd be really, really, really nice if i could obviate podcasts that have no episodes, or podcasts that are no longer maintained.
