A great way to manage your podcast on the go

Ever since I started using the creators app, I noticed that it is a great way to manage your podcast on the go. My favorite feature is being able to check out the analytics and Number of plays per episode. I also like being able to share each episode individually on various social media platforms to promote and distribute my show. my favorite feature overall however, is this app is 100% voiceover accessible. As a user who is blind, I like how I can do everything I need to such as promote my shows and check out my analytics without having to worry about any lack of voice over accessibility. The fact that they considered voice over accessibility is a huge plus in my opinion. the one suggestion I would like to make is I think that the ability to record directly from the creators platform should be an option. I feel about removing that feature that took away a lot of creative freedom for those who do not want to show out money for the Riverside app. I do realize Riverside is free, however, heavily ability to record edit and distribute all in one place would be a huge convenience and it would be a huge plus for those who do not want to have multiple apps on their phone.
From Favorite to Frustrating: A Once-Simple Podcast App Gone Wrong

I used to absolutely love this podcast app. It was my reliable workhorse for everything from recording to editing and even lining up guests. The beauty of it was its simplicity. Launching my podcast and growing its audience felt genuinely accessible thanks to its intuitive design and all-in-one functionality.However, recent updates have completely stripped away the ease of use that I once cherished. What was once a streamlined process for getting guests on my show now requires downloading a separate, clunky application. This adds an unnecessary layer of complexity, which is incredibly frustrating when you're trying to gain momentum and connect with new voices for your podcast.Furthermore, the once straightforward editing features, which allowed me to quickly polish episodes directly on my phone, have been significantly complicated. The mobile editing experience is no longer the smooth and efficient process it once was.It's disheartening when an app that was once such a valuable tool undergoes changes that actively hinder its core functionality. What was once a simple and effective solution for podcasters has become an exercise in navigating unnecessary hurdles. While I have fond memories of the app's previous iteration, the current version has unfortunately lost the very qualities that made it a standout choice. If you value simplicity and an all-in-one podcasting workflow, you might want to explore other options.
Feedback

I am impressed with this kind of instruction! I first heard about podcasts through my church for sermon’s etc. —- but I never caught on to the practical personal aspect of producing one’s own podcast. Then I started listening to a tv program and still do, called “God Friended Me”. (All about an individual starting his own podcast and helping people that God or someone doing it in His name brought to his attention) Love the TV program and the idea of Podcasting, but still did not connect the concept to a possibility for me until recently while doing FaceTime video with my Son and two grandsons who are stationed in Daegu, South Korea with the US Army. During FaceTime on my IPad with them last night my Son asked me if I would like to hear the boy’s podcast they were doing with their father on their favorite subject “Starwars movies”. I was surprised, impressed and specifically enjoyed watching it “with them” because how proud the boys were about their first Podcast production. I was impressed by what they had done. This morning I saw the invite to download the app “Anchor” to continue keeping updated on my Grandson’s podcast. “A & A”, which are the initials of their first names, Andrew & Alexander. While I am not sure what kind of podcast I could personally do or would want to, I am intrigued with the possibilities since I am interested in e-bike riding, music like Jazz and blues harmonica, making videos of my bike rides, Biblical Theology etc etc. I am age 79 and a retired Army Bandmaster. Even if I never do a podcast for myself I will be at this time interested in my Grandson’s podcast for sure. Thank you for your introduction to podcasting and would be interested in you advice or help. Leon R Wyatt
