Useless

I would give this a negative star if I could. I listen to podcast only offline, with this new version I can no longer tell whether the episode is downloaded or not. I don't think it's possible to listen to it offline at all, every time I clicked on a "saved story" offline, it starts downloading. it can't download because I am offline, of course. If any stories were saved, they were erased by that action of downloading anyway. It seems that there's no real "saved stores", they are merely bookmarks. I was able to save episodes with the old version, why did I download this new version? It ruins the listening completely! Fix this please! Or at least put up the old version. It would save my live if I can get the old version back. Don't they test the app before releasing it? You truly get what you pay for.
Good app

The main frustration I have with the app is how slow the picture for each story loads and interrupts my place when reading/scanning the stories. It is very annoying when it happens for each story in the list.
Works but painfully

Swipe swipe swipe swipe click click To listen to stories you have to cue each one up. Not good for driving. Where is the "just keep playing" button? It's hard to believe that in 2016 app creators can issue such a simple app executed poorly.
Can't listen as much

I love the content of marketplace. That goes without saying, despite the fact that i just said it. App pros: navigating is easy App cons: if you are on good wi-fi or have good connection the stories play just fine, but when it does not is in the opposite situations, like when you have poor or spotty connection, thank you Sprint, or slow wi-fi. The storie just stops playing rather than buffer and continue from where it stopped. You have to start the story again, from the beginning.

Love the Marketplace stories. The saved list is not "permanent", the list gets erased after about 2 weeks. I would like to save stories for a longer period of time. I would like the ability to fast forward through audio clips.
Bugs

Theres an annoying bug where only the first 2-3 minutes of the marketplace episode play. Then you have to restart the app and the stream repeatedly until it finally plays a full marketplace episode. It has been this way since I first downloaded it months ago.

Marketplace Makes Me Feel Smarter

In a brief time every day, Kai Ryssdal, Molly Wood, David Brancaccio, and Co. celebrate financial information with easy application, cool music bridges, and making SENSE of the DOLLARS AND CENTS that drive Economics. Its "interesting economics", no longer an oxymoron.
