### 3/5 — Something different

*2023-11-10*

I like the concept, love the idea that there’s more than just audio. I find navigation difficult. The first one I played I couldn’t figure out how to skip to a certain point or how to mark something read. I’ve been using Apple’s podcast app and have already listened to quite a few that I wanted to marked already read. It has taken me a while to figure out how. A quick instructional page overlaid on the main screen would’ve been a big help. Also, if Siri reads your texts and notifications over AirPods, it will not automatically start playing again afterwards. However the “extra” pics, etc is awesome to have.

### 1/5 — Very confusing

*2022-04-13, version 1.0.13.0*

It might be a good app but it seems to be too much work to figure out.

### 3/5 — Adequate but clumsy

*2022-04-06, version 1.0.13.0*

This does work to play podcast and show available graphics. But the interface is not intuitive and the search function missed lots of iTunes podcasts. Meh.

### 4/5 — A very good podcast app, but..

*2022-03-24, version 1.0.13.0*

I can’t find a way to import an rss feed. It’s possible to import subscriptions from another app, but as far as I can tell, no way to import a subscription for a podcast via an rss feed. Relatedly, there doesn’t appear to be any way to ask the developers a question directly.

### 5/5 — Intuitive Interface, Easy to Use

*2022-01-31, version 1.0.13.0*

I had been using Spotify for podcasts and found the interface awkward and clumsy, and often wondered why there couldn’t be pictures and links accompanying the episodes. I jumped shipped to Vodacast after hearing about it on True Crimecast and have been pleased so far.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2021-07-30, version 1.0.11.3*

Vodacast gives you a great experience. I love to look through the pictures that go along with the episode while listening!

### 3/5 — Good on iphone, Not on ipad.

*2021-07-23, version 1.0.10.6*

Wish the app would work on ipad.  Works fine on iphone.

### 5/5 — Premium Content For Free

*2021-07-16, version 1.0.10.6*

I currently pay for Spotify Premium to reduce intrusive adds while listening to podcasts. Vodacast does not have those adds and is free to use.  This has potential for listener interaction that Spotify cannot offer. Additionally premium and paid podcasts are available for free on the app. Don’t let YouTube take hours of your time with forced adds, let Vodacast give you better content, more effectively, for free !

### 5/5 — Perfect app and very smooth/easy to use

*2021-07-05, version 1.0.10.6*

No issues at all, very easy to use and smooth without any issues highly recommend!
