## What is Slimcast?

Slimcast is a simple, lightweight podcast player for iPhone. Keep track of new episodes, line up what you want to hear, and enjoy your podcasts in a clean, uncluttered app.

ONE INBOX. ONE QUEUE.
Browse new episodes in your Inbox and decide what to hear. Add the ones you want to your Queue and dismiss the rest with a swipe. Drag episodes to change the listening order.

Choose where new episodes go for each show: your Inbox, the top of your Queue, or the bottom. Keep your favorites ready to play and pick episodes from other shows as you go.

LISTEN YOUR WAY
Stream right away or have your Queue download automatically for offline listening. Adjust the speed and trim silence in downloaded episodes. Jump between chapters or skip the ones you don't want to hear. Open episode information and view chapter artwork when available. Keep listening on the road with CarPlay.

EASY TO GET STARTED
Find podcasts with a combined search of Apple Podcasts and fyyd, or add a feed link. Bring your subscriptions with you using OPML. No Slimcast account is needed. Optional iCloud sync keeps subscriptions, Inbox, Queue, and listening positions in sync; downloads and playback settings stay on each device.

Playback speed ranges from 0.5× to 3.0×. Silence trimming requires fully downloaded episodes and is unavailable over AirPlay. Chapters and chapter artwork depend on information provided by the podcast.

Made for iPhone. Available in English and German.
