Add a search box to main playlist
Sometimes I have hundreds of episodes in my main playlist, and I want to delete some of them, selecting all episodes that contain a certain word.

Add an option to order by Remaining percentage
Sorting by Remaining percentage would be very useful, I think, to keep half-played episodes at the top of the playlist.
My current situation as example:
I currently have my playlist set to order by priority and publication date. This is great, except when I've already started an episode and an episode with higher priority is released, it will be added above the current item in the playlist (which is logical, of course, because of the order I set.)
If there were an option to sort by Remaining percentage, I could use that and it would keep the current playing episode…

Option to remove 'Post Review', 'Other Episodes' buttons from episode description
Screen real estate is precious, would prefer to have more space to read the actual description. I do not use the buttons.

Make timer fadeout longer
When I use the timer, it's usually to fall asleep with something. I don't always fall a sleep while listening but often after the timer runs out, how ever the quick fadeout snaps me out of it, a longer fade out, even a minute long, would probably help me fade into sleep, and it sounds like an easy tiny update...

Statistics - more than one year back
It would be great to have all listening statistics for every year back kept in Podcast Addict. Right now it shows 2020 and 2021, but 2019 disappeared at new years. Would be great to be to be able to compare.

Multiple Priorities lists
It would be nice to setup multiple priority lists. If you want to listen to "Business podcasts", you could have a different priorities list with certain podcasts ranked higher in the list. Then if you're wanting inspiration or entertainment, you could switch between your priority lists accordingly. All podcasts would still be in the list, just in different orders. This would just be a quicker way of changing your priority lists without actually going in and editing the priorities on individual podcasts.

Make 'move to bottom' of playlist not also take you there
When I toss an episode to the bottom I have to scroll back to where I was changing the order. Nice to next played doesn't do this.

Add a "Volume decrease" similar to "Volume boost"
While resting and listening to podcasts, on some headphones the minimum android volume is still to loud.

Enlarge episode images
The episode image should enlarge within the app if you click it in the episode description in the top-left.
Using the browser is time-consuming. A link for those who want to open it should stay somewhere, though.

AB repeat feature
If the user selects the Repeat A-B option, that would define the current playback position as the 'in' point, and the option wording would change to Repeat A-B (set endpoint). When the endpoint has similarly been selected, the track would repeat continuously between A and B until the user selects a different option.
thanks

Create a bookmark at position A, then create a bookmark at position B
Open the episode bookmarks list and start playing the 1st bookmark which will play from position A to B, then will keep going.
I can add a repeat button on the bookmark line, that way the app can repeat in a loop the same bookmark until the bookmark is deleted or the repeat flag is disabled
Please let me know what you think about this -
Swipe right to add episode to playlist from list of episodes, swipe left to mark as played
I spend the most time in my subscriptions adding new episodes to the playlist. In a list of episodes from a sub, I long press and select "Add to Playlist" or "Mark Played" if I don't want to listen to it.
If I could swipe left or right to achieve the same action. Perhaps make this available from the search section to add one-off episodes I might want.

Add google smart speaker support!
If Podcast addict were a default option for Google Nest smart speakers it would be amazing. (You can change it from google podcasts to spotify currently so why not get podcast addict on there!) You'd need to have it synced up but imagine being able to tell your speaker to play a podcast and it automatically plays it via podcast addict, then you stop it to go for a drive and listen on your phone and it's synced up exactly where you left off. This functionality is one of the main reasons I feel I may have to abandon Podcast…

Add stop button in notification bar when playing radio
With the current Pause button, you can pause and resume radio. Perfect.
But when a long period of time has passed, I prefer to resume radio at the real moment (not to resume from the moment I paused).
I think the Pause button has a good utility, but a Stop button would avoid people going into the app and press the Stop button in order to listen to the radio in the present time.Thanks!

allow Bookmarks to be saved in the Podcast Index Chapters Json file format
Bookmarks currently save as a txt file. Add the option to save them in a Podcast Index compliant json format for easy adding chapters to an rss feed by feed owners or the future submission to feed owners.

What percentage of downloaded episodes have been listened to?
How about a measure of what percentage of downloaded episodes have been listened to. This might help people prune their subscriptions.
I suggest a % on the count of episodes, any listening, vs any other measure.2 votes -
Add the choice of the position in the playlist where the podcast is automatically add after the download
I create a playlist each morning for all the day and during the day I download some podcasts of news. They are automatically add to my playlist but always at the end, and for each of them, I need to put them in the next listening position (prochaine écoute in French).
Can you add the choice of the position for the option Automatic add to the playlist after download (ajout automatique à la playlist après téléchargement).2 votes -
Allow users to block podcasts from podcast suggestions
I would like to block specific podcasts from showing up under podcast suggestions at the bottom of episode descriptions etc. So if I see a suggested podcast I'm not interested in, I can click and say "hide suggestion" or "block podcast" or something so that another suggested show will appear in the future

Swipe between screens: player, playlist, downloaded episodes, etc
I want to swipe between the main screens: player, playlist, downloaded episodes, etc instead of clicking to open up the left menu. I think this would be way more UX efficient as I often switch between player, playlist and downloaded episodes a lot.
