Lately there have been 2 disturbing changes. One was that one day it just decided to ignore the "on wifi only" and downloaded a bunch of podcasts while I was driving to work and hence made me go over my BW limit. This hasn't been repeated, but I am always wary now. Lastly, and probably worst of all, it's clearly monitoring all my incoming and outgoing dialled numbers! It asked for new permissions and I gave them, but now every time I receive a call I get a little on-screen notification (a Toast popup, in Android SDK parlance) in Korean which ends with the number that just called me! When I dial it, I get the same messages but it says "null" at the end in place of the phone number. Why would it need to monitor my phone calls? I've used this app for years. Other than the above, it was mostly reliable for my simple needs although it needed features like a max number of downloads, or a max amount of storage to use. I need to periodically delete old episodes.

A simple application to enjoy and discover podcasts, internet radio, and international streams. There is a hidden complexity to experience if intrigued while for others it just works. This one is worth trying over the weekend and buying a cup or three of ☕️ coffee. It provides much more with less.
