Great app. I researched the best alternative to Google Podcasts on Android, and this seemed to be most people's favourite. It was an easy transition, and the app is intuitive and has some cool features. I was 100% comfortable and preferred it over Google after about 3 days. I rated 5* despite not being able to make it my default podcast app because that is a Google/Android issue, not a Podcast Addict issue, and a workaround exists, so now it's a Me issue.

The layout for android auto is terrible. Difficult to navigate. On the phone, the first thing you see is "all categories", which is good. When you open it on Android Auto the first thing you see is "Audio playlist". And the only way to get rid of something on that list is to trash it. If you want to find a podcast you have to hit "more" then hit "podcasts". Why not make "podcasts" on the first screen like when on the phone? Or make it customizable? Other than that... Great app.

I'm sorry but I just explained you that the Android Auto UI was provided by Google. It's the same for every app and no I cannot customize it. When you're playing the player screen is from Google. When you want to access the content, you have to show the current playlist content. Then you can add other lists that's why you can see lists like categor

I tried a few apps lastnight and today. I wanted to get away from spotify, due to many reasons. I found my music service, and wanted a way to listen to podcasts. I tried 2 or 3, and this by far is the best. Every feature is there. The monthly subscription for $1.29 is justified, depending on how much ya listen. But, to have more features than others, and STILL more coming...BEST!
