Long live “queue” based podcast apps
01/07/2024
iPhone_3GS_was_best
I am another long time Castro user trying Airshow as a replacement. So far so good :) My one, humble feature request is to have episodes “jump” to the top of the queue when you play them. Stepping back, I hope the app is gradually improved over time, but truly the app is doing a great job as-is. Plays podcasts in a queue. Displays show notes. Exposes chapters. Love it. Every person is different, but I do **not** miss the fad/advanced features like SmartSpeed, share clip, “Discover” tab. Keep this app lean & reliable and it’ll be a standout. Good luck Feedbin!

Love the simple player but needs a few tweaks

As Castro increasingly becomes unreliable, I was looking for a good alternative. Airshow seems to fit the bill pretty well. I really like how easy it is to set up your queue and that you can sort them into playlist. It’s a fairly intuitive system that doesn’t feel overwhelming.That said, there are at least two features that I would love to see added. I would like to see the ability to add episodes to the bottom of the queue not just the top of the queue. it would be great to be able to adjust the skip speed so that instead of only being able to go backwards 15 seconds I could do 10 seconds instead. Down the road, it would also be great to be able to customize listening preferences for each podcast like setting the playback speed and being able to trim the silence.

This is an excellent idea to sync podcasts with a feed reader. The first version has been flawless so far and sounds great on both my iPhone and iPad. It does not have some of the fancy features that other podcast players have. But, the data model matches how I listen to podcasts. There is a queue of episodes and that’s it. I pick what is automatically added to the queue and everything else get’s added when I want to listen. Simple.I imagine that Feedbin will roll out additional features in the future, but the current version works great for me.

The only podcast player that doesn’t drive me crazy!

Castro used to be my go-to player for its queue system, but the recent server issues sent me looking for a replacement. Airshow’s been pretty easy to use - it doesn’t overcomplicate itself like every other app I tried! If I could leave some requests, I’d love to have the option to add episodes to the top of a queue, and more specific speed options (1.1x or 1.15x are usually my go-tos). But above all else, please keep the app simple and straightforward! It’s a breath of fresh air :)
