PrivPod: Your Audio. Your Rules.
Experience podcasting without the surveillance.
In a world where every click, play, and pause is tracked, PrivPod stands apart as the privacy-first podcast player that actually respects your data. We don't collect analytics, we don't sell your listening habits, and we don't require you to create accounts. Your audio library stays exactly where it belongs—on your device.
Why PrivPod?
Zero-Knowledge Architecture
Your subscriptions, listening history, and preferences are stored exclusively in your device's local SQLite database. We have no servers, no backend, and absolutely no way to access your data. What happens on your phone stays on your phone.
Offline-First Design
Download entire playlists and listen anywhere. Airplane mode? No problem. Once synced, your podcasts are available without internet. Perfect for commutes, flights, or anywhere connectivity is spotty.
Seamless Migration
Switching to PrivPod is effortless. Import your existing subscriptions from any other player via the industry-standard OPML format. PocketCasts, Apple Podcasts, Overcast—we support them all.
Open Source Transparency
Trust, but verify. Our entire codebase is available on GitHub for independent audit. Community-driven, community-audited. No hidden agendas, no proprietary black boxes.
