What's New in CastKeeper For Podcasts

2027.3.1

October 30, 2026

** iPhone Duo Improvements ** - Users will experience a more stable sidebar and layout while rotating, resizing windows, or folding and unfolding. ** Managing Your Queue Is Even Better ** - Move to Top / Move to Bottom. Reorder your Queue without dragging, from the context menu or swipe menu on Home, Queue and episode rows. - Undo. Removed an episode from the Queue by mistake? Tap Undo and it returns to its original spot. - Confirmations with View Queue. When you add episodes to the Queue, a banner shows where they landed and lets you jump straight to the Queue. - Clearer Queue screens: a filtered Queue now tells you when filters are hiding episodes and offers Clear Filter, and the Queue no longer drops episodes you've already played. **Faster, steadier sync** - Launching on a device that has been idle now catches up with your other devices faster. - Reduced unnecessary background syncing and disk activity, which is easier on battery and storage. - This improved sync requires all devices to be running the latest version of CastKeeper. We recommend updating your primary device first, and then your other devices before launching CastKeeper for the best experience. **Privacy and accessibility** - Custom S3 storage now warns you when an address uses an unencrypted `http://` connection, and asks you to confirm before saving one on a public network. Private network addresses show a gentler notice. - The Sensory (haptics) intensity setting is now respected everywhere, including Discovery taste profile screens. - Live Captions now show a [silence] cue during long stretches of dead air, so it's clear nothing was missed. - Fixed a crash that could occur with unusual podcast feeds in the App Clip and with duplicate notes in AI note review. ** Other Improvements ** - Re-archiving an episode from a removed storage location now asks before re-downloading from the original feed, and large batches continue in the background. - Fixed an issue where an episode you finished could remain in Resume or the Queue because another device reported older progress. Thank you for listening, and for the feedback. Use **Settings → Submit Feedback** to tell us what to improve next. Your Podcasts. Yours Forever, CastKeeper

This is a have to have

I don’t have to worry about losing great podcasts if the channel or podcasts are no longer available.

Awesome App

Fabulous app and great support from the app developer. Easy transcript export just what I was looking for youtube integration if possible would be great and so much potential for the future road map please keep up the great work.

Response from developer

Thank you for the review and glad you’re loving the app. Unfortunately, Google’s YouTube restrictions make it difficult to fit our model, but definitely in the research folder. Look forward to even more new features soon! And welcome to our community of users!

Feature Requests and Bug

Hello, I really like this podcast app. It is the best podcast app that I have found and I really like the UI.

I just bought the app. Whenever I go to download an episode, the progress bar reaches 100%, but then the episode says that it is not downloaded and it shows that I can download it again. I click the download button and it does the same thing.

Also, when clicking the transcribe or generate chapter buttons, they stay greyed-out, and nothing resolves. I’m unsure if this depends on the podcast episode being downloaded or not, but the transcription and generate chapter buttons do not seem to work. I don’t know if they have progress bars to monitor them, but if they do not, could you add that feature?

EDIT: I did figure out that I needed to enable “AI Processing on Battery”. However, I am still unable to generate chapters on battery. Even if it is not recommended for one to do this, could you add the ability for one to do so? Also, I’m unsure if the SOTA models are less intensive.

Also, I have bought the podcast app Aisten as well. It does a wonderful job in transcribing podcast. It uses the SOTA V1, V2, and V3 engines to transcribe the podcasts. I was wondering if you could also add these as options to select to do the transcriptions?

It also has a feature to both bookmark (saved only when viewing that specific podcast) and favoriting (a global way to view all favorites across all podcast) different lines of texts within the transcription. Could you add a feature similar to this? It would also be nice to have bookmarks for specific time codes. It would be nice to have a way to add notes to time codes, as well as having a note section for the given episode. I would like to use this app to do a little research.

Another feature that would be cool is to be able to export a selected segment of the podcast’s audio.

Thank you for your efforts. This podcast app is amazing. If there are other features I think of, I will update my review.

Thanks
