With Podchaser as our partner, we provide a rich experience, by showing you creator profiles, user lists, reviews and ratings.

It's great in general but please can you improve the search feature? Can you make it so you can search your own downloaded/offline podcasts? And also on normal search can we have the option to search the name of a podcast or the episode title or a word in the description (eg. To find all podcasts featuring a certain person or subject). Not having this is really annoying and I've had it on other podcast apps.

We support both iTunes and "The Podcast Index", you can switch between them in the app settings, try switching for different/better results. Also, to search your own library, it's easy to miss, but when you do a search you'll get two tabs as search results, "Search Podcasts" and "Search Library", the latter is what you want.

My favourite podcast app. There are no ads. Sometimes while casting to my Google Nest, halfway through it'll skip to the next episode. And some won't play unless I download them first. If some of these instabilities are fixed it'll easily deserve 5 stars. The design is nice and neat and everything works intuitively. No clutter. I just it hope it stays like this and they don't start hiding things behind pay-walls. Especially subscription based.

Really nice and straightforward GUI. I appreciate that it doesn't spend lots of energy trying to force new podcasts down my throat like a lot of competitors, a pc is where i'd choose to go for this. Could do with some more automation features, auto download of old episodes etc but I've heard they're coming. I haven't found a perfect podcasting app, bit this is certainly the closest I've come. Thanks! And no adds woop!
