Ratings and reviews

I have been operating, recording, editing and publishing a podcast for over a year on this app and the latest iteration you can't record, invite guests, and edit from the app any more. Spotify you NEED TO FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!! UPDATE It has been quite a bit better then it was and I haven't had problems for a while except for login and loading content. the last little bit

I uninstalled this app because I lost all of my sound effects, all of my recordings, everything. my podcasts are still up but it's a pain in the behind to upload audio from other apps when I very literally found a better alternative. put it back to how it used to be, with sound effects and in-app editing and in-app recording! ever since they tried to do that partnership with whatever that recording app was, everything got screwed up. I wish we were back to Anchor. that was my favorite version.

So disappointed! Loved Anchor and have had a podcast on here for almost 4 years. Ever since Spotify took over, the changes have been awful. Now, my episodes won't even upload right. Contacted support, who were very nice, but wanted me to upload my episodes from my computer for troubleshooting - which kind of defeats the purpose of an app? They said that they are working on it but don't know a time frame of when it will be fixed. If not fixed soon, will switch to a new platform. Ugh! Hate this.
