User Reviews
I preferred this app over many others for close to a decade now as I go through a lot of podcasts while I work, and this one consistently let me access direct RSS feeds and didn't push aggressive ads or subscriptions. However, it's recently got much buggier and today spontaneously deleted many GBs of already-downloaded podcasts (including ones that are no longer available and can't be recovered) as well as erasing all my subscriptions and listening history. Time to find a new app.
Overall this is a very good podcast app with a couple pain points. Example: The scroll bar when browsing episodes is way too touchy so clicking around brings you way up or down in the list by accident. Additionally, when there's no internet collection it just blanks out which is confusing if you don't know what's wrong. Overall though it's pretty easy to use and lets you add your rss feeds too.
This is a revision of an earlier review. After years of working very well, an update 11/9/20 had rendered the app almost useless. Downloaded 'casts didn't stay sorted, but shifted order constantly and randomly. Looking for help on their web page, it appeared blank. Since initially sending this review, the bug was fixed and my happiness with the app restored. It provides access to podcasts without membership in any service. The search function works well for most feeds. Automatic downloads are optionally available for each subscription. New episodes are offered in a separate list where you can choose to listen and/or download if you don't want every episode automatically downloaded. The (now repaired) sorting function lets me find recent 'casts when it's time to listen. The Pro version (without ads) is a fair bargain. I have also discovered the Store has a feature allowing contact with developers other than negative reviews.
I have the paid version (only a few bucks - totally worth it), so I'm not experiencing the ads playing during a podcast that others have noted. I do, however, have one thing that keeps happening. When it starts to download new episodes, the status gets stuck in "downloading episodes" mode and it looks like it's endlessly downloading when it's not. Only way to fix it is to do a force stop on the app. Annoying, but other that that, it has been a fantastic app. Using a Galaxy S10, FYI.
