Editors’ Notes

Overcast really loves podcasts. You can tell. Everything here has clearly been the result of a lot of podcast listening, and the result is an app that does everything you want to do without unnecessary features or unnecessary fuss.

Marco told me to do it!

But seriously, this is the best podcast app available. It’s packed with features and solidly designed. Btw, every feature is free! Paying a very low-cost yearly subscription removes ads (which only show on playback screen) and supports the developer. Totally worth it just the latter. If you like listening to podcasts, just get Overcast.

Great little app, I prefere if over the native app

Great little app! I prefere it over the stock app as it has many more features and tweaks as well as being easier to navigate.
