NewsFlash - Acast Soon to Overtake Most Podcast Apps

Music_Lv'r

FINALLY! A FRESH, AWESOME Long-Hoped-For APP, to take (progressively-worsening TuneIn Radio Pro, app ("TiRP"), out of my Devices. Except for a few easily-Fixable Quirks, "acast" has now easily Surpassed "TiRP's" reign. (Stay Tuned...).


Missing many basic functions

GreyHeyes

Navigating the back catalogue of a podcast is tedious. There’s no way to have it list oldest episodes first. There’s no way to make custom play lists. If you are importing an OPML there is no way easy way to bulk mark episodes as played. So for a show like 99% invisible, if you are all caught up you would have to manually mark each episode as played. The feed organizes each episode from newest to oldest but doesn’t have any customizable features. The design and interface is good, and I like the recommendation function, even knowing that the app prefers podcasts within its own network. Final thoughts for the devs - spend some time looking at other podcatchers and make use of the commonly employed features and you will make the app more inviting to a broader audience. Specifically custom playlists, bulk marking of episodes, and basic sorting options. What I like about the app is the subscription model, but only in the face of the impending collapse of Patreon.
