## What is VoleCast?

An open-source podcast app that streams. Nothing is downloaded, so nothing is
left behind to fill your phone.

There is no "play the next episode" feature — in fact no concept of a next
episode at all. You pick one from Latest, and when it ends, nothing follows it.
No end jingles or no trailing ads from an episode you listened previously.

To pick up something unfinished, History holds the last 100 episodes you
played, whether you finished them or not.

And when you do want the next one, you can jump from any episode into its
show's full feed, however far back it sits — so you can follow a thread through
episodes released years apart.

FINDING SHOWS
Search by name, or paste an RSS feed URL. Alongside search there is Discover:
Apple's top podcasts for a country you choose, overall or by genre. 

WHEREVER YOU LISTEN
CarPlay, lock-screen controls, and resume-where-you-left-off. Your
subscriptions, your place in each episode and your history sync through your
own private iCloud, so they follow you between devices.

WHAT IT DOESN'T DO
No account. No analytics. No advertising identifier. No server of its own —
nothing is sent anywhere to be counted. The source is public.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4 — 2026-11-07

CarPlay now has a History tab next to Latest. The refresh button sits beside the Latest heading, which shows that it's updating while it works. Episodes are no longer shown twice when two devices pick up the same new episode, and Latest refreshes only when the app is open on screen.

### 1.3 — 2026-11-02

Finished episodes are now easy to spot, with a clear checkmark and a replay button. An episode you stop during its last few seconds now counts as finished.

### 1.2 — 2026-10-23

* For You: new suggestions in the Search tab, based on the shows you listen to most: more from the same publisher, and popular shows in the same genres.
* Tapping anywhere on the search field now starts typing.
* Fixed episodes appearing twice in Latest after iCloud sync, and restored listening history that sync had hidden.
* Refresh button of carplay latest list

### 1.1 — 2026-10-19

• The CarPlay list now shows each show's artwork.
• The car screen keeps up with the phone: pick an episode there and
  CarPlay follows, instead of waiting for the next connection.
• The mini-player's skip button now jumps forward 30 seconds rather
  than back 15 — more useful for getting past an ad.
• When Apple's directory is busy, search now says that pasting a feed
  URL still works.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-15

No release notes.
