  • Please adjust UI for easy speed control

    Really wish you could swipe the artwork in the player to speed/trim silence controls so you could have them and the forward and back buttons open simultaneously (like in Overcast). That’s the main thing preventing me from totally switching over from Overcast.
  • Best by far

    Skipping controls at start and end are exceptional. Option to define forward and back skip time is also great! Been my go to app for several years!
  • Pocket Casts is a Star

    The app is great all around. My only suggestion is to add an option to adjust the text size. Would love to see podcast titles more easily from a distance.
  • Privacy nightmare

    I never consented for the app to collect my information. This is something that should be opt-in, not opt-out. It’s a hassle to request my data to be deleted. The process is intentionally obfuscated. Shame on PocketCasts. You slimy people and company!

    My go to podcasts app for years. A little buggier than usual the last couple of years. For months now the player controls have been consistently breaking for me. Updates never seem to fix it. Unfortunately a deal breaker for me, so I’m likely switching to Apple Podcasts.
  • Ad pop-ups

    I have a paid account. And yet, upon launching the app I am greeted with pop-ups for some premium expensive sleep service?! Paid accounts now have ads?? This app has turned into subscriptionware greed. I recommend that you avoid.
  • Go-To Podcast App

    PC has been my go-to for years. I’ve tried other podcast apps and always come back to PC for their simplicity, UI and support. Definitely worth checking it out, especially if you have grown tired of your current podcast app.
  • Best Podcast App
