User reviews

Love it

I just started using this app about a week ago, and I already love it. Sometimes I will find myself tuning out of podcasts because of my ADHD. But with the transcription feature, I don’t have to worry about that. That is pretty darn sweet. Also, thank you for making it accessible to the blind.

Meh, Still Needs Work

The navigation in this app is unintuitive. Text overwrites text on the subscriptions screen. Apple car play does not work. Only presents the list of podcasts episodes. Select an episode and it crashes. Tested in a ‘9 Toyota Camry with iPhone 13 running iOS 15.6.

Filled my phone’s storage

Used for several months and was happy for the most part. Did notice some problems that other apps tended to crash while this was playing in the background. But I wasn’t sure which apps were causing the problem. Finally decided to delete the app when I realized that it had filled my phone’s storage with 58 Gigs of data. Turns out it hadn’t been deleting old episodes even when I manually deleted them from the app. The only way to clear the old podcast from storage was to go into settings and manually delete them one at a time. Or delete the whole app. Good bye hypercatcher.

Carplay buggy

I couldn’t find any way to report bugs.
I’m the car, running HyperCatcher often won’t start playing. You may be able to select a podcast but play and it dumps out to the carplay main screen.
You’ve got to open the phone and launched HyperCatcher there and start playing.

I liked it but it has started crashing constantly

It’s almost un usable now, please fix
