Queue is a game changer
I was a long time Apple Podcast user and am so glad Castro was recommended to me. As someone who rarely gets to all of their podcasts, the way Castro handles queues and downloads is so much better.
I’m a daily user of Castro
I’ve been using Castro for years with only a few minor issues, but recently it’s started draining my battery whenever I use it during my daily run. I’ll start with my phone at 100%, and by the time I’m finished, the battery has dropped dramatically. Today, for example, it went from 100% to 36%, with nothing else running on my phone.
It’s really disappointing because I’ve enjoyed using Castro for years, but if this continues, I simply won’t be able to use it on my longer runs. I’m hoping this is a bug that can be addressed in an update soon.

Never resumes where I left off
Castro seems to be incapable of resuming my podcasts where I left off. I listen through Car Play and whenever I try and resume a podcast, I’m back 25-30%. Very frustrating.
Avoid like plague
Unbelievably manual podcast queuing. Nobody needs this aarrgh!
Incredible free version
Came from pocketcasts after they started using gen AI chapters. I feel like I wasted two years using it because Castro has been much less buggy for me so far! My only feedback is that the UI feels kind of messy, but I'm sure I'll get used to it. Really amazing work, thank you!!
