Works really well. has a lot of options for sound, downloading, saving to phone or playing from wifi, speed settings per podcast, viewing, etc. Easy to just use the ones that are relevant to you as the defaults are generally very good. note: UNLIKE OTHER APPS loses track of casting to a Google home device, so it keeps playing on the speaker but does not show as playing in the app. It therefore does not save your place if you pause it via Google home which can be very irritating on a long podcast

Everything related to the Chromecast is handled by the device not the app. It's the device's job to reconnect to the Chromecast session. If the Chromecast button status isn't correct then the app has the wrong information and isn't aware anymore of the playback in progress and therefore won't behave properly.Only a rom update or google play servic

Works very well. Just a bit confusing and overwhelming interface at first sight due to the large number of options! Edit: over time, it has grown to have so many functions, options and screens that is absolutely overwhelming at the point that it's becoming frustrating/tiring to use. The author should consider a spin-off with a simpler app for those who need just the basics.

Pretty good, but the BeyondPod player (Abandon Ware) is still better. However this is the best alternate I've found so far. 4.5 stars. The toast notification​ situation really sucks and I hope the developer can mitigate the intrusiveness of this Android "feature". There's an option to "mark as played" any episode that's manually deleted. So that's acceptable. On the pixel 9 you have to long press the battery optimization option to reach a hidden menu to fix the issue.

If you're referring to the banner telling you that the app is being restricted by the device all you have to do is follow the FAQs instructions to disable the restriction. You can long press on any episode to mark it as played. You can also press the toolbar mark as played button when on the episode screen. Feel free to contact me whenever you have
