Spacecast vs DeepSpace Podcasts

This little podcast app looks and feels simple. Yet is sophisticated where it matters. For example, Spacecast automatically detects and skips sponsored sections in episodes, so you can listen without interruptions. Your home screen? Always clean, always AI-free. Just your podcast feed, in pure chronological order. That means you’ll never miss an episode — or feel overwhelmed trying to catch up. Give it a spin. I think you'll love it. I hope it brings you as much joy as I had building it. - Robin. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
