Ratings and reviews

I have used CastBox almost exclusively for years now averaging at least 4 hours a day and over 10,000 hours on over the last several years. It's easy to use, navigate, reliable, and has everything I need. Imagine my surprise and disappointment when these new extremely long NixPlay ads starting popping up. They are intentionally deceptive with the location of the close out "x" and I have a hard time getting past them. It's totally ruined the experience. Please remove these ads immediately!

Ads have started to have fake 'close' buttons. Good luck! Edit: this app has been ad supported for a while and they were mostly fine, but they have recently gotten much worse, including fake 'close' or 'skip' buttons that follow the ad when you click them and don't give any indication when the ad is finished and can be skipped.

Used to love this app and recommend it. Now, the ads are so intrusive that I feel it's unusable. It forces a full screen ad when you try to start listening to a podcast, and even if it's a simple banner ad, the box to close it has a ridiculously small size, so they're artificially inflating their click through rate by bouncing you between the app store and the ad 20 times before you hit the right pixel to get to the playlist. Then it crashes. Then you repeat the process.
