About this app

Hark is a new way to experience the best of podcasts. Hark editors are podcast-obsessives who clip moments of podcast genius and curate them into Harklists - our own take on podcast mixtapes. Each day, we create Harklists to make you laugh, give you multiple perspectives on a topic, and find your next favorite show. All in less time than it takes to listen to a single episode.

And when you love a clip so much you don’t want it to stop, Hark will play you the full episode, and you can even subscribe to the podcast. Because, oh yeah, Hark’s a full-featured podcast app too.

Ratings and reviews

Absolutely love the concept, design, and execution of the app - after two days of using it, I've found podcasts and episodes I 100% wouldn't have found elsewhere. One major nit though - "skipping forward" on my headphones and galaxy watch skip to the next podcast whereas other apps enable me to skip 30s forward. I wish I could configure the option since 90% of the time I just want to fast-forward through something (like an ad or a portion of the podcast I don't care about).

Great concept, great aesthetic. I also actually like that there doesn't seem to be a played/unplayed function. It makes listening to episodes feel less like a to-do list and more leisurely. Harklists are why I checked it out originally, but I'm looking forward to testing out the app as a full-blown podcast subscription app. Keep up the great work, Hark team!

This is the perfect way to consume small, rapid fire stories from podcasts that prevent me from getting bored quickly. The ability to then go to the full episodes is great and I actually do like the little intros that tie the stories together into themes. Only a few minor negatives: the audio clips are often trimmed a little sloppily, cutting off in the middle of a sentence. Sometimes the hark lists also have duplicates and the feedback email is incorrect in the app.
