What's New in Podtastic

5.1.0

July 13, 2026

What's New - Your settings now sync across devices — sign in on a new iPhone and your podcasts, downloads, and preferences are restored automatically - Smart features now work in 25 languages, so non-English shows get Smart Skip, Summaries, and Topics too - Private and members-only podcasts now get Smart features, processed privately on your device - Tapping an episode or recommendation notification now takes you straight to it - Review Jumps got better — sync a jump to the current playback position and rate jumps inline - Adding and removing podcasts is now instant, with a quick success confirmation for sign-out, Restore Purchases, and adding a feed by RSS - After onboarding you now land straight in your Library Bug Fixes - Fixed episodes getting stuck, flip-flopping in and out of "processing," or wedging on an unplayable spinner - Fixed the player stalling at the end of an episode so your queue didn't advance - Fixed Smart Skip occasionally jumping too far and skipping real content - Fixed occasional surprise sign-outs during brief connection blips - Fixed new subscriptions flooding your queue with old back-catalogue episodes - Fixed the Library badge and sort not updating the moment an episode became ready - Fixed duplicate "episode ready" notifications - Fixed sign-in prompts not appearing for some members-only feeds

User reviews

Broken

Wanted to like this based on a friend’s glowing review, but can’t get past first screen. Bugs out even after many re-downloads. Login screen just flashes on and off.

Response from developer

Hey Roxy, I'm really sorry. There were a few bugs in 2.5.0 which have been fixed in 2.5.2, but a first impression means a lot! If you want to retry it please do and you can always email support@podtastic.app for more. Best. Ben

Much improved

I had this months back and it wasn’t quite there, gave it another try today and it seems to be doing great.

Great customer service. The developer Ben is fast to reply back to your email if you have any issues. Good work Ben!

Breeze Past Interruptions

Killer feature here that makes podcasts far more enjoyable to listen to. People are sleeping on this one.

Unable to add podcasts.

This app sounded exciting because I’m a hardcore listener of podcasts. But I’m unable to add podcasts. I keep getting the error “You don’t have permission to access this resource “. Please tell me I don’t have to get a premium membership to try the app?

Response from developer

Hey Labanan, you do have to be a premium member. We've added a trial so you can try it out and cancel if it doesn't work for you.
