Add No Phony Podcast Network to your list of networks
No Phony Podcast Network is an independent group of podcasts that provide a broad range of shows. We support each other through technical help and cross promotion. We would like recognition on Podcast Addict as a network. nophonynetwork.com
42 votesUnfortunately the podcasts from this network are not using a similar name in the author field and there’s no way to automatically identify those podcasts are being part of this network. The only way I can add a new network is if I can set rules to automatically identify podcasts as being part of this network

Mark as played if time remaining is less than 1 min
Add an option in the settings so that a podcast is automatically marked as played (and therefore deleted if one wishes to) if the time remaining is less than X (such as 30 seconds, 1 minute...).
15 votesYou can use the skip oiutro feature for this. It can be set as a global setting or per podcast. Feel free to contact me if you have any question (Settings/Feedback)

Transcripted podcast
About five billion potential customers of this application do not understand English well. And it is necessary for the customer to be able to add a subtitle and this subtitle can be shared between different people, such as the musixmatch application, because the subtitle helps to better understand the podcast. And even if it is not possible to share between different people, it is still good. And if it is possible to auto-scroll on the text, it will be great. Volunteering like expanding Wikipedia pages will be successful ... and the use of podcasts by non-English speakers will continue for…
12 votesPodcast Addict already supports transcripts. HOWEVER very few podcast are providing transcripts… As soon as they do you will be able to see real time transcript on the player screen

Rewind button on screen saver mode
I would love a rewind button similar to the forward button when the app is on the screen saver mode. If I ever miss something and need to rewind, it's a pain to unlock the phone and go into the app. We have a fast forward button, but no rewind in that mode.
1 voteYou can go into settings/notifications/player to customize the notificatinotificatio a rewind button

User Data Very Large
Podcast episodes I download are stored on SD-card, the app itself is not, ok. But when I look at how much space the app takes up in internal memory, the app itself is very small, but it has 1,5 GB of user data. So Android says it takes up a little more than 1,5 GB of internal memory. That's strange. And the number does not change depending on how many episodes I have downloaded.
3 votesThe app doesn’t use any storage space.
Once you select the SD card to tore the files, all the files are moved from the internal memory to the SD card.
The app doesn’t use any more internal storage space, however if you check the app storage usage in Android it will still show the same usage space as it shows the total space used by the app in both its internal storage and SD card folders.
You can check that the app doens;’t use any storage space on the internal memory by using a file explorer app
Feel free to send me an email if you have any question

Better handling of episode ending (ExoPlayer).
Troubleshoot if this problem is implementation or dependency.
May be ExoPlayer problem: Does not play episode till the end.
With and without changing play speed, audio stops playing (some milliseconds) before the actual podcast episode ends.
In some podcasts they have unique show endings and this cuts last word out.
In my mind this is not a problem that podcast MAKERS should sidestep, but player should play everything in stream.
I have not yet tried to find out if this is mp3-coding type (vbr vs cbr) related, but it's somewhat annoying.
I found out just now, that changing player engine…
2 votesPlayback is handled by the selected player engine.
There’s nothing I can do if the player engine somehow misses the end of the file. The app has just a passive role here and will only mark the episode as played and skip to the next one when notified by the player engine that playback is completed -
Lock screen options
please add more options and functionality to lock screen. For example the option, that function buttons cover half or all of lock screen instead of only a small part at the top.
regards
1 voteIt looks like you’re using the device’s built-in media player lock screen widget. Please disable it from the device Settings, then instead you will see the app player notification to control the playback from the lock screen

You can use the select mode to select multiple episodes and then apply the action of your choice.
If you’re in the “Playback in progress” screen then you can use the ‘Reset progress’ action -
allow videos to play in the background..
To allow the audio of the video to continue while outside of the app the same as an audio only podcast.

Add a way to clear backlog from New Episodes lists
After I add a new podcast, or they do something that refreshes their feed so all episodes show up as new again, the full backlog of episodes from that podcast shows up on the New Episodes list every time I sync. I currently have 800 episodes from two podcasts that refreshed their feeds.
I couldn't find a way to clear those from New Episodes without swiping through every single one. I don't want to mark them all played because they aren't played. Now every time I sync, they show up again.
3 votesYou can swipe the New episodes notification away or once the New episodes screen is opened press on the back button to reset it

Not a suggestion, request for help
I've tried to get the contents of a folder on my internal storage to populate the play list (I'm assuming this is the best/only method of listening to my local storage content with Podcast Addict. I used "+" (Add) and selected "Import", navigated to my folder of content and Here I'm Stuck! The ONLY clickable item is "CANCEL". How am I supposed to Import my local podcast content into Podcast Addict's Play List???

Change update sort order
Currently, the update of all podcasts goes in alphabetical order. But I would like the option to sort that by priority or recently updated as I do in the playlist, so that the stuff I want to hear first gets downloaded first, and the long-finished podcasts get to the rear of the update queue
3 votesPodcasts are updated based on the app main sc6 sorting mode. If you change the sorting so episodes are sorted by priority then they will also update following that same order

PA now missing from android pull down list of active apps
PA 2020.15d (build 20322). Moto G Plus. Recently updated to Android 10.
Before and since the system update to Android 10, PA stopped showing in the pull down active apps list. So if I want to change podcast, rew/FF I now have to open the app from the home screen rather than just pull the list down and short press PA. Is this a bug or intended and will PA return to the active app list?1 votePlease restore the app notification from the device Settings/Notifications/Applications/Podcast Addict screen to fix this

Make multiple downloads run parallel
Right now episodes are downloaded sequentially. So if I click "download" on 10 episodes, but episode 2 is from a slow podcast host, the fast downloads stay queued until it completes.
Ideally downloads run in parallel (or at least 1 parallel per podcast).
3 votesDuplicated entry. Please vote for the existing request so it can become more popular

Play just the audio of a video, not the image
There are audio and video podcasts. I would like to play video files as they were just audio files.

I checked the manufacturer website and didn’t find any developer section. I’m sorry but there’s nothing I can do here if they don’t provide any sdk or documentation on their solution
- Don't see your idea?
