Mimir vs InteroCast

Mimir is the podcast player for people with too many shows. Organize your library into nested groups (folders), set priorities for the podcasts you care about most, and import an existing library via OPML or Apple Podcasts. Then keep listening with Continuous Playback — pull the next episode from a group, a podcast, or your whole library — with silence skip, voice boost, and CarPlay when you need them. Stay Organized • Nested groups that work like folders for your podcasts • Collapse and expand groups to show only what you need • Set higher priority for the shows you love • Drag and drop, swipe actions, and long-press menus for fast library control Continuous Playback • An automatic playlist that always keeps the next episodes ready • Choose the source: a group, a single podcast, or auto-generated lists • Sort and filter options so Mimir queues what you actually want next • Priority-aware ordering puts your favorites first Advanced Audio Engine • Custom audio engine built for podcasts • Silence skip detects and removes silent segments • Voice Boost enhances quiet speech • High-quality playback at faster speeds • Sleep timer and customizable skip intervals Make Mimir Your Own • Light and dark mode • Color schemes and custom tint • Dynamic Type support Discover • Curated lists from podcast writing around the web • Recommendations based on what you play and prioritize • Genre charts and search Also on Mac • Native Mac app with the same library via iCloud • Organize once; listen on iPhone, iPad, and Mac And more • CarPlay • iCloud sync • Password-protected RSS feeds • Video episodes • Media Control Center support • Customizable download settings • Import and export libraries from other apps Mimir is designed and developed by a solo developer in Colorado who cares about podcast listening.

A calmer, more private way to listen - and to actually engage with what you hear. InteroCast is a complete podcast player that runs entirely on your device. Search and subscribe, build a queue, download for offline, and listen in a clean, editorial design. No account. No tracking. No server in the middle. THE BASICS, DONE WELL • Find shows by name, or add any podcast by RSS URL • "Up Next" queue you can reorder with a long-press • Variable speed, skip controls, and a sleep timer • Download episodes for offline listening • New-episode notifications for shows you follow • CarPlay support and a Home Screen widget • iCloud sync keeps your library across devices • Built for iPhone and iPad, with a landscape two-pane layout GO DEEPER WITH AI (OPTIONAL) Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key to unlock: • Transcripts that follow along as you listen — generate them with OpenAI Whisper, or free and entirely on-device with Apple Intelligence • Ask - a chat assistant that knows your exact position in the episode, so you can ask "what was just said?", "summarize so far," or "what's coming up?" • Voice mode — a hands-free, real-time conversation about whatever you're hearing SAVE THE GOOD PARTS • Long-press any transcript line to clip it • Turn clippings into shareable pull-quote cards PRIVACY BY DESIGN Your library, history, downloads, and preferences live only on your device. There's no InteroCast account and no analytics server. When you use an AI feature, the request goes straight from your device to OpenAI or Anthropic with your own key — it never passes through us. Apple Intelligence transcription happens fully on-device. InteroCast is free to use as a podcast player. The AI features use your own API key, so you pay the providers directly only for what you use. A quieter way to listen.
