Long time user here to uninstall What a way to ruin a good app with an update attempting a modern look. Plenty of apps have modern look & feel but none of the navigation and search issues of this app. I wouldn't download it now even for free. There should be a rule against failing to deliver even a basic usable app following an update. The only silver lining is that thankfully, I will never again have to see your icon in my apps folder.

Like I said it"s pretty good is it not? ( innit). Probably best app of it"s kind, trouble free so far. Five stars if it had a more intuitive interface, one click to set up "auto- delete episode after listening" as I often find unwanted episodes still on the memory months after use. This is possibly due me overlooking some existing features , if so , apologies all around. Update Feb 2017; it's still relevant, hasn't been stealthily updated to death and is sill my first choice

Pretty Good Just about anything you could want in a podcast manager. But, in my opinion Beyond Pod has two faults. First there are so many features that it takes to long to figure out the best settings for you. Secondly, there is no simple way to back up the settings and list of subscribed casts. Unfortunately, I seem to require a factory reset on my phone occasionally and reinstalling this app has become a pain.

wish i could get my money back i bought this key a long time ago. i really liked the app i bought before the recent updates and changes. i now use different free podcast apps rather than the one i paid for. i don't get to use the app i purchased the key for, and i am displeased with the new version. so before you pay money for something you like now, know it can change and you now have an entirely different product than what you initially signed up for.

Worth the $ This is the best podcast manager on android. I'm very hesitant to pay for.apps but this is easily worth the money for the convenience and usability. I tried several other free podcast apps hoping to find something comparable but they're not even close. If you listen to a lot of podcasts you will not be disappointed buying this.
A Google User
Excellent Podcaster. But searching for new podcasts is Beyond terrible... This is my favorite podcaster on Android. Sync's well with Google Reader. Love it more that it works with Presto to adjust speeds. One complaint is discovering new podcasts, or even searching for existing. That experience is just miserable. Pocketcasts is much better at that. Dropping to 4 stars until this is updated.

Weird bug with update?? Sometimes on my Galaxy s5 the app will auto play but literally freeze up my entire screen on my lockscreen. Sometimes I can mess with it enough to freeze it to where my phone recognizes an issue, so it'll restart. At its worst I have to take out the battery to get it to restart. Absolutely a shame because this is a pretty great app, but not if I can't use it.
Hate update to "modern" design I've used this app for about 3 years now. Had no problems with it at all. Loved it. Then, I wake up this morning to a bright, orange app that I no longer know how to use. I don't usually write reviews, but this I just can't let go. As long as I've used android, I've had a dark theme for everything. If there is not an option for a dark theme in an app, I don't use that app. I can relearn the app, but if there is no way to switch to a dark color theme, then I will be searching for a replacement.
WON'T INSTALL! I'm enjoying the BeyondPod app, so I decided to purchase the unlock key. But it just won't install, it keeps saying there is not enough room on my device, which just isn't true. PLEASE Help me so I can begin to enjoy the app again. -EDIT I got it to install by following the go pro link from inside the app itself, rather than installing it directly from the Google Play store. I don't know why it's now worked or if this really had anything to do with it, I'm just happy to finally get what I've paid for. EDIT-
One problem Great app. Only problem I have is player won't pause when I get a text. Notification plays over audio and is way too quiet and usually miss them even when my notifications volume is maximum. And yes, i have the setting set to pause on notification. Using HTC one m8. Oh and because of this app I use over 20 gigs a month :)
The best podcast manager I've found, full of useful features and easy to use. Definitely worth buying, once you do you won't use another. I have one minor complaint, the lack of an equaliser means poorly recorded podcasts (with too much treble for example) can't be filtered to make them more listenable. Though this isn't a common feature among podcast clients so I won't deny them the 5th star
Good upgrade from Google Listen Overall I was fairly happy with Google Listen, but it had numerous bugs and was no longer being updated so I was looking for an alternative. I tried a few others and hated them. This app works very differently from Listen but is overall better for achieving what I'm looking for, which is listening to every episode of numerous podcasts. After a bit of setup this whole process is now completely automatic and I no longer need to do any manual queue management. Best podcasting app for sure.
Bang for your buck This app is the BEST APP for managing your feeds. Period. The ability to sync with Google Reader was the clincher. It's really managed to save me a whole lot of hassle, since my school computer blocked most of my websites. It's maybe the cleanest interface out of all the RSS apps, has its own internal browser, and supports video. No questions asked, you can't get much better than this.
My first paid app - well worth it! I never thought I'd pay for an app. After using this for a week, I see it's worth the money. Sure, there are a couple free podcast apps out there but they all require manual work to download and organize episodes in the order I want to play them. I was able to configure BeyondPod to just do that for me. The widget is great and it just fits my life perfectly. Well worth the money.
Reliable and gives you full control This app is really never in the way of what you want to do, listen to podcasts. It is easy to use and it just dawned on me that I have used it for over a year and I have never been frustrated or annoyed with this app. I have actually never wished for anything more than this in a podcast listening and downloading app. Easy control of the playlist. Good overview of the episodes that are downloaded. Very nice control and automation for how many episodes of each podcast to keep and when to delete old ones.
Great If you listen to a lot of podcasts then you won't regret this. Its better than any other for Android that I've used. The price is definitely high, but its worth it. There's so many options that can be backed up and everything that its a must have if you're a developer or switch ROMS a lot.
Good Google listen alternative BeyondPod is a good Google Listen alternative and can import your Google Listen feeds. After using the free version for a while I was prompted to purchase the key which I did and then my podcast would not play over Bluetooth until I rebooted my phone. I was driving at the time and was furious that I couldn't listen to my podcast over bluetooth after paying $6 for an unlock key. As it turns out I just needed to reboot.
Death by update Beyondpod was a perfect little app to manage and listen to my podcast subscriptions. The user interface was easy and comprehensible. I was very happy to purchase the premium key, because i liked the app. After the recent update the app I liked and purchased was gone. All that was left was a completely different app with bad UI design that is too much centered around the features probably no one ever uses. Too bad!
Works as advertised. Missing a few pluses I almost never buy apps but yours was good enough to buy the unlocked key. Congrats. Request: Bookmarking feature. Sometimes when learning languages or listening to podcasts we hear an important soundbite. It would be great to just use a button to bookmark it. Either through the headset ( currently using klipsch control) or just the interfase. Currently using Ginko player but it would be better to have a 1 stop solution. I'd give you 5 stars.
Back in 2011 when I first bought this app I listened to a lot of music podcasts. Online streaming happened a music podcasts went away or became less (p)relevant and I forgot about the app. Skip ahead quite a few years and a number of topics I'm interested in are having a surge in podcasts (and some admittedly never went away). BeyondPod is still here and working great (from Donut to Nougat). My favourite feature has to be that it skips back a couple seconds automatically after pausing. That's such a simple thing but a great feature to ease you back into the conversation. And that's just one of the features. Worth the price, great dev.
Possibly My Most-Used App I love this app. I shopped around for podcatchers, and tried a handful, but this was the one I settled on, and have been using it happily now for the last couple of years. I won't claim to be a power user, I don't use a whole lot of features, but it does what I want it to, and it does it well. My only complaint (and this may be more with Android) is that, after the latest KitKat update, I can't store old podcasts on my SD card, they can only be played on my (much smaller) internal storage. But I've never had any trouble finding new podcasts, building playlists, finding or deleting episodes; I love this podcast player and use it throughout the day.
I paid because my conscience got the better of me. Been using the free version for a year or so now. Well worth the money. I like the way it integrates RSS feeds. I like the downloading rather than pure streaming aspect makes it good for the tube. One point, when listening to a downloaded cast it can stop as I go underground if the wireless data is not turned off. Hardly earth shattering but that's why it got 4 rather than 5. The most used app on the phone. Thanks.
One of Favorite Podcast Apps Keeps Getting Better. Wish UI were modernized I am a big talk radio and tech podcast listener. I've been using BP for a couple of years. Works great! Import feeds from Feedly and configures the way I like it. Highly recommend. Wish UI was more modern with cover tiles to show feeds. Go back and forth between BeyondPod and PocketCasts, which are my two favorite apps in their class.
Over priced vs better Pocket Casts I assumed that the variable speed control present in the free version as one of the paid features that times out of you don't unlock it would be present after paying but NO such luck. You still have to also buy Presto for variable speed. Another disappointment is how slow this app is to download the podcast feeds. Pocket Casts is much faster in syncing the feeds. Overall this app is pretty good but Pocket Casts is just much better in ever way (and also needs Presto for variable speed.)
Suddenly Slow? I've really enjoyed this app and have used it daily. In the past week or so, all downloads have slowed to a crawl, while other data (over ATT LTE) continues to download at rates that match my speed test results. Half an hour is too long for an 18mb dl. Any ideas what's going on here and why only this app seems affected?
Love This Podcatcher!! As other people have noted, Beyondpod's pro version is a bit more expensive than other programs. IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY MANY TIMES OVER!☆☆☆☆☆☆☆Love it even more because of back up and restore! I just changed phones, so I backed BeyondPod up, and uploaded it to Google Drive. Opened up Drive, searched for the file, clicked on it, and BeyondPod Restore was one of the options to open the file. One click, and BeyondPod was just the way I left it on my own phone. THANKS! ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Awesome! I use this app daily and I love it! The interface is clean, there are a plethora of options, it does what it's supposed to do intuitively and smoothly. Highly recommended! The only reason I am rating it 4 stars instead of 5 is that infrequently my playlist will be emptied inexplicably. It's a small inconvenience outweighed by all of the other pros.
Test it before you pay It seemed to fit the bill when I first installed the free version. But there was no real chance to test it properly (automatic weekly update for one). So I bought the paid version and since nothing much works. Now I understand why the few version only works 3 days our so. The good thing is that I only lose a few dollars. Still ...
Best audio and video podcast app No need to sync or hook up to PC. App runs completley independent and downloads on your schedule. Video plays inside app or can launch your external player. Can get feeds directly from URL link. Saves your listen or watch positions. Way better than Google Listen.
Needs more features. I abandoned this in favor of isyncr. Isyncr has more features, syncs with itunes, and syncs only unplayed podcasts, removes played podcasts from device. All these (and more) are features his app lacks.
Pricy But Still Great I love BeyondPod and purchased the Pro version to support the development. I do say that the price is a bit high and off putting to many. I'd think more would support the devs if the price was lower. Even still I am happy to have helped and thank you for the great work on this podcast app.
Pricey -- But it looks pretty and works great. My only complaint is the search feature doesn't pull up the latest & greatest podcast feeds. This is definitely not for the novice user because you'll have to look up the most current feed URL's online to add manually.
Add EQUALIZER please External playback speed control was the Achilles heel of this app, but it's been added now, and so far found it to be flawless. Beyond pod gained two stars on my scoreboard. Now my next gripe: could you integrate an equalizer too? Also smart play sometimes doesn't keep track of which episodes i have listened to. Especially twit productions. But this is the podcast player i recommend everybody. I used a pirated version of dogg, but since I could buy Beyondpod in 2 dollar sale, i completely switched.
Dropped stars because annoying. Great app but since the latest update I can't get it to open in the 'episodes list'. The main reason to open the app is to change playlists or episodes, but this can't be set to default. It's very annoying havering to swipe away the player every time.
Best I've found Downloads on schedule (without corrupting files like some others I've bought), ready to categorize podcasts. Best podcast app, and I've tried most of them. Cons: high price & the need to purchase presto for high speed playback; effectively increasing the already high price. Still, I bought it, so that says something.
5 stars. This is the podcast to get 1st application I have ever bought back when my touch 3g was new. Great app back then, hiccups in the middle, 5 stars again. Developers continue to upgrade, tweak and perfect. Thank you for all your work!
Buggy after the last few updates I've been using this app for a LONG time, and have been very happy with it overall. After the last few updates, however, the audio does not resume after phone calls, and the app often crashes while running navigation apps with audio cues. Great features, but pretty buggy for me.
Good podcast software Of all of them I tried this is one of the better ones. If you are an easy learner, the free version may be enough but I enjoy listening to quite a few podcasts and like to keep the best ones to listen to. The unlock key opens it up to allow for more podcasts to be saved.
Chromecast link keeps failing... Help! Loved the app. Worked great at first but not when I cast it disconnects after 6 minutes or so on video. I've had the same issue on multiple devices using the same Chromecast. This is the only app that does this. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I just upgraded to this from the "Lite" version. Now I cannot stay connected to my Chromecast for more than 20 seconds. The podcast is saved to the phone, so it's not a streaming issue. I have rebooted both my device and the chromecast several times. Please contact me or I will be requesting a refund.
