MuteCast

Skip podcast ads

$8.99

New: local AI/analysis uses fixed patterns and sponsor cues from show notes to mark podcast ads and interruptions more reliably. MuteCast analyzes episodes directly on your device and marks likely structural sections such as ads, self-promotion, donation calls, intros, outros, banter, and uncertain passages. Segments appear in the timeline so you can review them, skip them, or leave them alone. Nothing is deleted. Nothing is secretly changed. MuteCast makes structure visible and lets you decide how each podcast should play. Privacy is part of the product: no login, no analytics, no tracking SDKs, and no server-side analysis. Feeds, audio, artwork, and transcripts are used only to transcribe, play, and organize the podcasts you choose. Subscribe to RSS feeds, stream episodes, download them for offline listening, and keep your queue ready when Wi-Fi is gone. MuteCast is built for everyday podcast listening with clear controls on phone, watch, and in the car. Podcasts are valuable, but long episodes can be hard to navigate. MuteCast turns listening into visible structure without accounts, tracking, or cloud analysis. The optional Music tab shows recently added tracks from your Apple Music library. Starting music pauses the podcast, and music stays separate from podcast downloads, transcription, and analysis.

Version 1.5 improves ad detection: MuteCast uses local AI/analysis, fixed patterns, and sponsor or discount cues from show notes to mark ads, self-promotion, donation calls, intros, and outros more reliably. Also improved: podcast updates, downloads, the queue, sync, and clearer episode states.
