What's New in Castos

1.1.56

September 8, 2026

Performance improvements and bug fixes throughout the app for a more reliable experience.

User reviews

Simple, that’s the point!

Made the switch to Castos to host my premium feeds, and very pleased. This app is meant to be an easy access point for your subscribers to access their private podcasts, and it serves that purpose perfectly. Subscribers just add the email address and they can easily access all the private podcast feeds that come with their subscription. The creator of the feed decides whether or not to allow downloads.

This app is not meant for handling all podcasts, just private feeds hosted by Castos. If the user wants more features, like you get from Overcast, they can to copy and paste their private feed URL and subscribe there.

Showstopping bug

Skips back 3 seconds every 8 seconds or so on downloaded podcasts. Please fix.

Not very good

I can’t even relisten from the beginning. It will just go on and on and on, you can’t start from the beginning

Freezes, Tons of Bugs

Lots of issues when using the 10s back. The audio then stutters to make in unbearable. The app is also slow to respond with any clicks.

Worst App Ever

Most unreliable App on my phone. Never deletes old shows, almost impossible to load new ones.
