Great podcast app with no ads!

It’s so nice to see a podcast app with no ads integrated (other than any in a podcast itself- which the app can’t control anyway).
Great UI design that’s a delight to use!

Meh

Decent app. Used VIP for a few years. Sync occasionally broken when the app logs out your account for no reason. Most importantly, I can’t support developers who contribute effort and/or money to extremists like Curry and Dvorak, whose Mastodon instance had to be defederated due to all the hate speech posted. Apple Podcasts now has all the features most users need.

Almost Perfect

If I could make a podcast app this is how I would make it.

Won’t automatically download podcasts. And I payed for a subscription and it still won’t let me turn on the “Advanced Download Management “ in settings
