User reviews

Such a great podcast

This is my favorite podcast. I just wish the developer would update it more often. It’s been more than two years since the last update.

I wish we could at least get an update to incorporate the new iPhone Dynamic Island properly. The UI currently does not. I don’t want to switch podcasts because of this. :(

Update (11/2024): I love this app so much. Thank you for not forgetting it!

Simple!

Great if you are new to Podcasts, or if you just got overwhelmed with managing your complex podcast app, between your playlist, sleep timers, downloads, auto refreshing, iCloud syncing ect.

It’s so nice to just… Play a podcast. (I do miss sleep timers a bit though). I feel like it is one of those good iOS apps from the old days before the App Store got filled with the yearly subscription junk. Before even the in app purchase years. Before even the paid app purchase years. A true free app.

Lots of Potential

I love this app and it’s minimalistic design. It’s straight forward and super easy to understand. I would love to see this app get the love it deserves. The app just needs a bit fleshing out as it feels very bare bones. I get the app is supposed to be simple which is a good thing but a few more features would be nice to see. Also just a personal preference I would like to see the App logo change to something cleaner rather than the bright and colorful purple/pink one. Changeable app icons would be a nice touch.

Otherwise if you want a simple, clutter free podcast app that is well designed, this is for you. And to the developers: Please don’t give up on the app and keep updating it. There’s lots of potential here and it would be a shame to let it go to waste. Much love

Missed the “night candle” theme

God, really loved that bizarre looking theme. And the feel of manually switching themes was just amazing.

Still a very nice, simple podcast app nonetheless.
