| 2024-11-17 |  | | I went to listen to podcasts subscribed to and had a bunch of podcasts subscribed to that I did not click on or have never seen. I try to remove the subscriptions and the app just gets stuck in an endless loop of loading. Nothing will play and I can't remove podcasts. Layout is good but it's useless when nothing will load.....Response to creator: Such a generic response. Not my internet connection. This is app specific. VPN? A VPN simply masks my IP address. |
| 2024-11-15 |  | | Functionally, it's a great app, but an abnoxious amount of ads with microscopic X buttons are a hazard when I'm driving and trying to listen to my podcasts. Audio will randomly jump back huge amounts and you have to try and find where you left off. Impossible to use hands free while driving. |
| 2024-11-15 |  | | This is easily the worst podcast player I've tried so far. It will just randomly stop playing out of nowhere, every episode it says "cannot play the next episode due to a broken source", and don't do anything at all, even read a text message, while listening to an episode, it just stops playing. And don't get me started on the ads. I do not recommend this |
| 2024-11-12 |  | | I enjoy this app. It only has visual ads, no audio, which is really nice. My only complaint is that when an episode of a podcast ends it doesn't autoplay the next episode. Instead it autoplays the earliest episode you haven't listened to, or it plays an unfinished episode, or sometimes it just seems a little random. This is annoying if you pick and choose episodes which sometimes are in mini-series. |
| 2024-11-08 |  | | Obnoxious adverts completely ruin the experience. Small banners at the bottom of the window are fine. Full-screen adverts demonstrate utter contempt for users. I can only imagine what other defects plague this app. One thing is certain: I will never waste money on the app, and I will actively boycott advertisers. Update: now it's even worse. After a developer responded, I relented and gave it another shot. Now they've added AUDIO commercials. Save your $$ and simply download audio instead. |
| 2024-11-07 |  | | I love this app. It's easy to navigate and has an extremely wide range of things to listen to. The only problem I have with it is that when you listen to episodes the audio will randomly skip forwards or backwards through the recording and there is no way to listen to the part it skipped through. |
| 2024-10-30 |  | | Play episodes are fine as expected. But if I download first, it never plays: the play progress bar just starts at the end, and ignore any effort to rolling back the process bar. As the result, the episodes fail to play after download. 10/29: Thanks for contact me. The problem cannot dupe anymore. Now the downloads are "media file". The previous not working downloads were "feed". |
| 2024-10-24 |  | | Freezes constantly. New ads will download unwanted apps if touched. No lockscreen controls. This app works for the CCP DO NOT USE THIS APP!!! Hey dev...I'm not going to contact you 10x a day to report freezes. Especially since it usually happens while driving. I'm pretty sure it freezes just to play more adds, which trick folks into downloading unwanted Chinese spy apps. |
| 2024-10-23 |  | | I'm ok with ads on here but I had one that is so ANNOYING. Please please please PLEASE for the love of God don't start having the ones where you have to wait 15 freaking seconds to skip!!! PLEASE! If I start a podcast and I want to skip the intro, or don't even mean to play that particular one, or if they have sound issues I shouldn't have to wait for the ad to play out for eternity before pressing the exact, tiniest tiniest spot on the screen for the chance to skip it. I CANNOT AFFORD PREMIUM! |
| 2024-10-17 |  | | Reader, don't do this to yourself. You deserve a better podcast app than this one, and I'll tell you why. The pop-up ads are obnoxious (hello, 1998?), difficult to click out of, making it difficult to access content every time you open the app. There are pop-up ads that will play while listening to podcasts, running down your battery. The whole thing shuts down if you hit the back button from the home screen, every time. Turn back. |
