Really good app, but there's a couple things which could be improved. 1. I want to be able to delete all the episodes I downloaded from a certain podcast all at once, since now I have to go through them one by one to remove them. 2. I want the link sharing to be changed, now when you copy link it gives you "I love, [podcast name] | [episode title], let's play it! [link]". This makes me much less likely to share, since every time I have to go through and remove "I love" and "let's play it".

The App always refreshes the queue, even after you set it in your own order. And if you listen to half an episode and exit the app, you will have to restart that episode. My previous podcast app did the same thing, and the support was not even helpful, telling me I "don't know the difference between the download list and the queue."

Three main issues. The first two have been occurring for some time. And yes I'm using the latest version: 1. Randomly inserts podcasts from "followed" list into playlists without my requesting them and without their being downloaded. 2. Various podcasts one day all the played items are showing as played. Then the next day they are all showing as unplayed again. 3. Is struggling to download. Keeps trying and uses up excessive battery.
