Autohop: Podcast Player

Autohop is the podcast player for people who are serious about listening. Set your show priorities once and Autohop runs down the list automatically — downloading ahead, playing in your order, and tidying up after itself — indefinitely. No daily queue management. PRIORITY STACK Rank your podcasts once by drag-and-drop. Autohop always plays your highest-priority show's ready episodes first, then moves down the list. Finish an episode mid-commute and the next one starts on its own. ACROSS YOUR DEVICES iCloud Sync keeps your subscriptions, priority order, queue, history, and playback position matched across your iPhones — privately, through your own iCloud account. No login, no server, nothing to set up beyond a single switch. SLEEP SCHEDULE A sleep timer that runs itself, every night. Set your bedtime hours once; Autohop checks in with a soft chime — "still listening?" Tap any control to keep going, even a "Still Listening" button right on your lock screen. Drift off and playback gently fades out and rewinds to the last thing you heard. SHARED LISTENING Listening in the car with others? One switch temporarily relaxes every show to a comfortable group speed and pauses silence trimming — and one switch brings all your personal settings straight back. AUDIO, TUNED PER SHOW - Trim Silence (four levels) removes dead air without touching speech. - Vocal Boost (four levels) lifts voices above background noise. - Per-podcast speed, start skip, and end skip. BUILT TO STAY AHEAD - Release Radar learns each show's schedule and catches new episodes within minutes of release. - Download-first playback — no buffering, no stalls on a weak signal. - Per-podcast auto-archive keeps storage tidy automatically. - Chapter support with automatic skipping of chapters you've disabled. - Audio and video podcasts, with full-screen landscape video. - OPML import and export — move your subscriptions in from, or out to, any other app. - A private, on-device Stats page: listening heatmap, 24-hour clock, top shows, streaks, and exactly how much time Autohop has saved you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No analytics. No third-party SDKs. Everything Autohop stores stays on your device — and iCloud Sync uses only your own private iCloud, which Autohop's developer can never see. Autohop is open source under the MIT License, with four audio-engine files used under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 (derived from Pocket Casts for iOS).
