Android. You might have it already, I had one yesterday and today.

Stitcher is by far the best podcast app if you ask me, there is so much great content on there, you couldn't but find some content you are interested in on there.

No pocket casts update today for me. I'm on 7.0.

Finally got an update today...

Same, hopefully that'll get rid of some of the small bugs. I've grown used to some of gbe UX tweaks (now just swipe and click to archive which is annoying)

Pocket Casts seems to be behaving a lot better since 7.0.1.

I've been using Castbox and it's decent.

I've an issue with Pocketcasts and I'm not sure if it's a change they've made or whether I've adjusted something I shouldn't.

My podcasts in my filter for new episodes now show a play button beside them all. Previously it used to show a download button and only had the play if I'd downloaded it, and there's no easy way to see what I've downloaded and what I haven't? Anyone else come across that?

My new releases filter shows the arrow icon for episodes I've yet to download and the play icon for those I have. Have you auto download set to true for the new releases filter? Should be in the filter settings.

Or have you applied the downloaded filter to that new releases filter?

My new releases is Unplayed and In Progress and no older than 2 weeks.

I also have a downloaded filter which is simply downloaded.

OldMrBrennan83 · 16-04-2019 8:48am

Can't figure it out at all. I've just seen the green tick which helps a bit but I don't know what I've changed to give them all a play button.

The only one actually downloaded here is the GAA hour but the play buttons make it look like they all are.

OldMrBrennan83 · 16-04-2019 8:56am

Scratch that, found it. It's a setting I hadn't seen before in General Settings.

Ahhhhh, my OCD can settle now.

AntennaPod: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/de.danoeh.antennapod - it's also open-source.

Strange antics with Pocketcasts, or else it's just NPR's feeds that are the problem. It downloaded a heap of episodes (not from my asking) from March and others from the last few weeks. Stuff I've already listened to and it's mixing them up as well, it thinks NPR Politics is Fresh Air and Fresh Air is Hidden Brain which I've never subscribed to. All over the shop.

Haven't had any similar issue myself and have no NPR feeds.

6 suggestions from AC, hadn't heard of Scout before though it doesn't sound like something I'd use even though it's a lovely design.

Yeah, Planet Money and NPR Politics both had apologies.

Pocketcasts got a revamp lately and a .1 update too. It's now saying I've listened to 124 days, previously it was about half of that. Not so keen on some of the changes.
