LOVE THIS APP

I am a big podcast listener and I use to only use the Apple Podcast app, then they did the recent update with the iPhone 8 and now the app is horrible. I found this app just looking around one day for a better and this one definitely is. I wish that I had found it soon it's WAY better than the Apple Podcast app even before the crappy update and they have an even bigger selection to choose from.
Missing features

No automatic downloads. Does not work with Bluetooth play/pause button. But no ads. And generally easy to use.
Disappointed, dropping

I only listen to podcasts in the car, but this app is designed to be held in your hand. Driving 70 mph down the freeway is not when I want to have to fuss with an app. I'm confused: it ate up my data allotment with subscriptions, but I can't find any program that it actually downloaded. Whenever I start to play something, it asks whether I want to stream using my data plan. Where are those shows hidden?
Decent effort but lacking power user features

Can't customize skip back/forward times. Can speed up playback but it isn't pitch-corrected so everyone sounds like chipmunks. No import from opml.
Good app; needs a few improvements

Good app. Lots of selections. Needs an option to place newly downloaded content at top or bottom of download list. It would be nice to also be able to sort download list and not have to put them in a playlist, and also be able to make multiple playlists. Not complaining. It is free!
Major bug

I like to download the podcast at home so I can listen in the car. I dont want to use cellular data and have turned the cellular off for the app. This makes the app hang and not proceed. Either this or for some other reason, the app becomes unresponsive to touches. (Ios11 on iphoneX). If u can fix this issue, then this is definitely a 5 start app. Thanks!
Awesome

Allows you to listen to the podcast while operating your phone such as sending texts, viewing snaps, sending email. Makes it a lot better than just viewing the podcast on YOUTUBE Many great features & the automatic pause is great if you have to turn off the podcast for whatever reason.
Ok
Man intersted in functionality
I switched to this because the new Apple Podcasts app is awful, but I wish it had the ability to create and manage a playlist(it might but then it’s not easy to operate).
