Cool app

It works great, a big plus is the ability to download episodes via WiFi, e.g. when you are at home and listen to them later outside the house so as not to lose data transfer

Great app, but tons of cache

My experience with the Apple Podcasts app is positive, but I find it baffling how much space the app is taking as Documents & Data when I never downloaded a single episode, and there’s no way to clear it. It would be nice to have the option of deleting cache comfortably, as it really takes up a ton of storage space

Syncing problem

The app doesn’t sync well with Mac and iPad app. It’s also much slower than other podcasts apps. For example overcast syncs everything with lightning speed. When I listen something on my Mac and just close the lid than I take my iPhone and want to continue to listen podcast it’s not starting at the same spot where I finished it on my Mac.
