Hypecast: Company Podcasts
Internal podcasts for teams
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Download episodes for flights and dead zones, read the transcript while you listen, and get a push notification when your company publishes something new.
Hypecast is where your company's podcasts live. Leadership updates, stories from other teams, onboarding series, training and product news: whatever your organization publishes as audio or video, you'll find it here.
To sign in, you need an invitation from your company. After that, the app shows the podcasts that were made for you and your team.
LISTEN THE WAY YOU WORK
• Skip 30 seconds forward or back with one tap.
• Keep listening with the screen locked or while you use other apps.
• Watch video episodes in the app, or turn your phone sideways for full screen.
• Use CarPlay on the way to work.
READ ALONG
When an episode has a transcript, the current line is highlighted as you listen. Tap any sentence to jump to that point.
NO SIGNAL? KEEP LISTENING
Download episodes before a flight, a train ride or a shift in the warehouse. If you like, the newest episodes download on their own over Wi-Fi, within a storage limit you set. Episodes you've finished can be removed automatically.
DON'T MISS NEW EPISODES
You get a notification as soon as something new is published. The inbox shows everything you haven't caught up on yet.
FIND IT FAST
Search all podcasts and episodes, or filter by company, category and format.
WORKING WITH MORE THAN ONE COMPANY?
Every company you're connected to gets its own tab. You only sign in once.
MADE FOR ORGANIZATIONS
Your company decides who gets access to which podcast. Data is hosted in Europe and processed in line with the GDPR.

more • If your session has expired, the app now takes you straight to sign-in instead of getting stuck.

3.8.5 Oct 8
Listen offline even without a signal
• Download episodes and play them with no connection at all.
• The newest episodes can download automatically, within a storage limit you set yourself.
• While streaming, playback now rides out short dead zones and resumes where the connection dropped, instead of reloading or stopping.
• The downloads area shows storage use and progress more clearly, and downloaded episodes are marked right on the cover.
Content in several languages
• Podcasts and episodes can appear in several language versions. Pick the language on the podcast or episode page, or in the player.
• Your choice now applies to the whole episode list and to seasons – not just the episode you opened.
• Translated versions are marked with a small icon on the cover.
• Transcripts follow the audio you are actually hearing.
CarPlay
• Full catalogue with paging through all podcasts and episodes, including "All podcasts".
• Consistent +30/−15 second skips, reliable artwork and controls, and a seamless handover between phone and car.
Signing in
• Returning users continue with "Continue as …" without typing their email again. Signing out deliberately clears the remembered address.
• While your companies load, the app shows a loading state – no more empty screen – and a cancelled sign-in is no longer reported as an error.
Home
• Internal podcasts are ordered by recency: whoever published last comes first.
Fixed
• A single failed request could make a company disappear from the app, showing "not connected to a company". The list is now only changed on a confirmed update.
• Automatic downloads now stay inside the limits you set.

Push Notifications
Get notified the moment a new episode is published, whether the app is open, in the background, or closed. Tap the notification to jump straight to the episode.
A new notification inbox lets you catch up on anything you've missed. Mark notifications as read individually or all at once, and scroll back through your history. Notifications can be turned off anytime in the app.
