About this app

Your podcasts, organized around listening.

Dotcast is a focused podcast manager with a distinctive, tactile interface. Follow your favorite shows, discover something new, download episodes for later, and stay in control of a large library without creating an account.

LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN
Dotcast has no account, advertising, or developer-operated analytics service. Subscriptions, listening history, settings, and downloads stay on your device unless you choose Android backup or export them yourself. Network requests go directly to the podcast directory, publishers, and media providers needed for the feature you use. Google Cast includes anonymized SDK diagnostics described in the privacy policy.

Import and export OPML at any time, or create a full local backup of your library, progress, queue, bookmarks, and settings.
