Ratings and reviews

EDIT #2: Wow! Three and a half years later, there's been an update AND a dev team response! Way too little, way too late. Try any other app. Simple and easy to use, but I can't recommend it because of how often it breaks. Every few days I get a "broken audio - stream not found" error and will be unable to listen to anything. Only solution is to delete downloaded episodes, redownload them, then force stop the app 3 or 4 times. Would also love the ability to hide and auto-delete played episodes.

Lovely interface, but the inability to import my feeds in a single file is enough of a barrier that I can't see myself switching over from my current podcast app. Ah well. It's likely a great option for a lot of folks, just not for me. Whatever the developer may suggest, the handful of clicks required to export a file and then import it into another app is not exactly next level user behavior.

I just want a simple podcast player... Is that so much to ask? As much as I wanted to like this player, it just has too many issues to use full-time. From stopping randomly during play, long load times and difficulty scrolling podcasts with many episodes, lack of a SLEEP function or playback speeds, broken links to podcasts, there are several dealbreakers. Cheers.
