Ratings and Reviews
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
Missing functionality and bugs
The app is good overall, but there are some bugs and missing functionalities:
* last update (and some of the previous ones) removed my listening queue and I had a lot of podcasts saved there
* sync with macOS app works poorly
* would be nice to have playlists or different sections of saved podcasts. Or at least have the possibility to change the order of saved podcasts the way I want to, same as with queue, not having to select from three options. I am using saved podcasts in two ways: when I liked the episode and I know I want to return to it in the future or to save a new podcast episode for later, but I don’t want to add it to queue, as it might get removed with the new update
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.
