Good app, but would be so improved by adding a few things: A sleep timer would be huge! Right now, it just keep playing and playing, eventually waking you up if you fall asleep listening to an episode. Remember where I left off in an episode. Would love the ability to download episodes to my phone.Update: Now the app remembers where I left off, but I’m unable to play any other episode! If I click on a new podcast, it keeps jumping back to where I left off in the previous episode. Really annoying.
Decent but …

Well, the podcasts appear in your library seamlessly and play. You can adjust the playback speed and volume. There is a download feature which absolutely does not work for me on my iPhone, so I can’t listen offline.And what I dislike the most is the lack of any option to bookmark and save particular episodes.
Easy to use and feature packed

I am subscribed to a handful of private podcasts through Castos and this app is an easy way for me to listen to all of them in one place. Great UI, easy to use, and I get all of the new episodes automatically each time they’re published. Great app.
Functional but with some big flaws.

Okay, I am grateful for an app designed around only doing what it purports to do, and not to be a data collecting Trojan Horse for advertisers.But, there are a few things that would be really helpful to make this a stand out product 1) Let me download the podcasts in the app so I can listen to them on planes or when out of cellphone range. There is apparently an arduous process of downloading from the website, but haven’t successfully accomplished that. 2) Automatically save my place in the podcast instead of going back to the beginning each time a want to restart.
