### 1/5 — Baffling

*2021-10-19*

I have no idea how to use this app to actually discover new podcasts I’m interested in. The list of “favorite topics” is vague, with no examples of the kinds of podcasts that can into each category, and seems to exclude lots of what I listen to. If I want to listen to a fictional radio drama, is that “Literature” or “performing arts”? Is a science documentary podcast “Higher education”, “technology”, or “society and culture”? What category is, say, Planet Money in, or 99% Invisible? I listen to a lot of podcasts already, and there’s no way to import them, so I’d need to start over from scratch in this app. The interface is unresponsive and confusing. If you tap on the prominent cards at the top of the first screen, there’s no way to close the modal that pops up without scrolling down and navigating into the podcast being promoted.

### 3/5 — Navigation: no way to get back to main menu

*2019-02-24*

There is no way to get back to the main menu. Finished listening to an episode and can’t go back to the main menu. I would have to close and reopen the app, and that’s not a good user experience. Can you please fix this? Thanks.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time to review Vox Pods. 

I’m sorry to hear some podcasts aren’t playing for you, you can reach out to us via Twitter and we will get these looked into. 

We’re constantly looking at ways to improve the listener experience, and the ability to rewind and fast forward in Vox Populi is certainly one way we can do that. Please look out of this in a forthcoming release. 

Do stick with us on our journey, though, and we will continue to add features that you want to see and suggest!

### 4/5 — Great potential

*2019-02-17*

Love the app! A lot of podcast cover art are fuzzy though which takes away from the clean interface. Keep up the awesome work though. Excited to see a new podcast player!

### 5/5 — Stored podcasts

*2019-01-21*

Is there any way that I can add my old downloaded podcasts on my external hard drive to this app? I have old coast to coast am podcasts that I would like to add. Thanks!

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks so much for the review. 

That’s a great suggestion, well add it to our roadmap. Keep an eye out for this feature in a future release.

### 4/5 — Brilliant idea

*2018-10-02*

This is a great idea and so close to 4 stars. It’s newer so there are some small kinks I see that need worked out. The suggestions for podcasts that are similar could have a better algorithm. It’s a great way to find new indie podcasts that may be similar to my big faves. Interested to see where this goes!

### 6.0.0 — 2021-03-06

Hello, 

It's been a while! Has much happened whilst we've been gone? 

This is a ground up rewrite. We've spent a huge amount of time dedicated to really improving the whole experience of Expodition. We've been happy with the previous 5 or so versions of the app, and its served a lot of you well, but it was time for a refresh. A total refresh. 

Say hello to a completely brand new version.  That means you've lost a couple of features (for now) whilst we continue adding them back, but the performance will have improved. What's more, the app size has reduced by over 50%, freeing up more space on your device. We've also taken your privacy seriously and removed all third-party tracking frameworks. This means we'll rely on you to get in touch with us about feedback through other channels. 

What can you find then? 
- Stories: A new, novel way of discovering episodes through a curated selection of podcasts. 
- Better interactions: Force touch on pretty much everything and there's an action available. 
- Hide irrelevance: seeing feeds that are defunct, out-dated or no longer maintained? Removed them. Never see them again! 
- Change region: Bored of seeing podcasts only in Canada? Change your region to Great Britain and find some British content. 
- Episode Search: Scratching your head to remember which episode your favourite guest was on? Search for it!

- iCloud and Local: Everything is local but backed up to the cloud, that way you can pick up where you left off, no matter what. 
- Customise your playback speed 
- Skip silences
