Ratings and reviews

The commercials are loud compared to the podcast you are listening to, so they startle you and make you jump. The app also stops if you go to another screen to look at something else while you are listening or if you turn off the screen and want to listen to the podcast while the phone is in your pocket at the gym for example. So when you listen to it, you have to keep the app open with the screen turned on. The app has a lot of content and audiobooks in Spanish though, which I really enjoy.

Great content, marred by a terrible app. Advertising is downloaded live before an episode is played, which means a huge delay if the connection is poor, or simply being unable to play an episode, even if it has been downloaded previously. Settings for sorting episodes are not retained between sessions of the app, and the management of the played/unplayed status of the episodes is abysmal. Impossible to simply open the app and start listening to the next episode in a series.

For some reason the app suddenly starts playing by itself when you had it in the background but paused. Is a fresh installation. Happened in Android 8, recently bought a new one with Android 12, where happens too. I can't imagine what can trigger the play in the app. Sometimes it is while you are watching a video in a web, others the mobile was all alone unused in a table and suddenly you hear a voice and is the podcast running. Maybe there's some limit of "in pause" time?
