Is it good no its not is it some how the best option we have left looks that way. It's so much worse then stitcher or google podcasts but they're gone so stuck with it . Constantly bombarded with ads, downloads the next episode if and when it feels like so have to constantly check for new shows abd manually down load them. For no logical reason it plays from newest to oldest I can't find a way to change it so that's supper annoying. Overalll it technically works but thats about it.

I honestly hate this app, but I paid for a year of ad-free service so I'll have to stick it out. The queue doesn't auto play my podcasts, navigating from one screen to the other is a huge pain, I can't sign up for notifications of my favorite podcasts, it gives me data warnings for every un-downloaded episode, and it randomly turns off mid-episode at least once per day. Absurd. The *only* thing I like about it is that I can "favorite" certain episodes. I miss Google Podcasts so much....!

I really, really like this app in a lot of ways, but I do have two big main issues. 1) it's very hard to manage or manually change my queue. AND since last week even I can't even change the order of episodes in the queue at all, which is a BIG issue. 2) I hate that it pops up huge obnoxious warnings every time I listen to podcasts without having downloaded them. I have unlimited data. Why does the app care so much if I want to use data to listen!?!?
