Can be beat for the price!
I was looking for a podcast app that also works reliable on my apple watch but did not want to pay a yearly subscription fee, Downcast fits all my needs and no subscription needed.
Best Podcast Player, Period
I've been using Downcast since I carried an iPhone 4. I'm now on an iPhone 16 Pro Max and I've never found anything better. Downcast gives you the power to control exactly how podcasts play and what a playlist contains, and it does it LOCALLY ( i.e., no streaming) so you can continue to listen when you're hiking or biking in rural areas with no cell coverage. AND it does everything without the annoyance of "subscriptions". Yes, you need to learn how the options work, and you may need to read a Help page, but in return you get a player you can use across all your devices: phone, tablet, iPod, watch, and laptop. I have a "Daily" playlist I use most mornings, and a "News Only" one that lets my wife listen to the news without being bored by all the tech stuff I listen to; we both appreciate that. Keep up the good work, y'all!

A very accessible app
I actually didn’t think this app was around anymore. I took a chance and re-downloaded it because the Apple podcasts app is OK, but not nearly as accessible as this one. Thank you for keeping it around. I do appreciate it.
Super for offline podcast listening! Just one little request…
Perfect for podcast enjoyment without an internet connection! The one feature I would really like to see added are additional playback speeds, especially 0.8x, 0.85x and 0.9x, which would really help those of us learning a new language through non-English podcasts. Otherwise, super app!
