Update episode RSS directly from playlist
Many podcast are added to playlist with a temporary tile/description but are updated later through RSS (I mostly experience this with Radio France podcasts).
I can update it through that podcast's list of episodes, but could it be possible to avoid this and update that episode from the playlist context menu ?
Love the app, think you again !
2 votesMalheureusement je ne peux rien faire si la personne en charge des podcasts ne respecte pas le standard RSS. Une fois un contenu publie dans un flux RSS il ne doit plus etre modifie. Si malgre tout un podcasteur modifie ce contenu alors la seule solution est de laisser appye sur l'episode et de forcer sa mise a jour depuis le flux RSS

A filter to download episodes with a weekly schedule or keyword filter
I'm subscribed to a podcast that publishes episodes daily seven days a week but I'm only interested in the Saturday and Sunday ones. Would it be possible to set up a filter to only download these two episodes each week, or with a weekly schedule or keyword filter? For example, download only if it contains the word "Saturday".
3 votesYou can already set a filter to include/exclude episodes based on keywords. You can find this in the podcast custom settings. The upcoming version also includes a schedule that can be customized per podcast. You can then set the app to only download episodes automatically on specific days. The other episodes will still be available in the podcast page, but not downloaded. You can join the beta on the play store app page to test this right now

Add "Mark played" for the currently playing episode
When I don't want to hear the rest of the episode I am currently listening to, I would like to press Mark Played, such that it gets removed from the playlist and the next episode starts playing. Mark Played is available in the views where episodes are listed, but not in the player view
1 voteYou can long press on Player screen next episode button to tell the app you're done with the current episode. The app will then behave as if you fully listened to the episode, marking it as played and removing it from the playlist

Preserve settings & stats when upgrading a podcast to a premium subscription
I just signed up for plus.npr.org. I need to "replace" my existing free subscription with the new premium subscription.
What I did was to delete the old subscription, and create a new one. This means I have to manually redo settings. Not a big deal in my case. This also means all playback history is lost, which is a little sad.
Is there a better way to "upgrade" an existing podcast description to a premium subscription?
3 votesYou can edit the RSS feed url of any subscription. That will keep the settings and its list of episodes. If you want to get rid of the episodes you can then long press on the podcast and reset it

Editable drop down player
The drop down player should be fully customizable. I don't know if it's you or my phone but I would like to be able to put the controls where I want. Especially since it seems to change every few months, I get used to where a button is and then it moves or dissappears
1 voteAre you refering to the player notification? If so pelase read the last changelog. Apps have to follow Google latest specs and restrictions

Allow subscribers of services like Amazon Prime to subscribe to add-free podcast using their account.
Some services like Amazon Prime now offer add-free podcast to subscribers. It would be great if it was possible to use podcast addict (PA) to subscribe to those podcast. The idea would be to safely enter your credential for a specific service in PA and then being able to search/subscribe to podcasts available from that service using PA with all the wonderful features it offers, instead of having to use multiple applications.
3 votesA podcast is a RSS feed. Unless Amazon starts providing private feeds for their subscribers this content will not be available in podcast apps

Add "don't show this again" to Optimized Apps warning
I do not want to add Podcast Addict to the Optimized Apps list - the app works perfectly well for me without this and I understand the limitations on things like background updates, which I don't need. Unfortunately, I am now constantly spammed with the red "Thanks to Google latest restrictions..." alert when I use Podcast Addict. This is really annoying.
Please add the option to acknowledge and suppress this warning.
1 voteThis banenr is displayed because the device is blocking app services and preventing it from working a it should. You have the name of the last service blocked in the past 24 hours in the message.
You just have to follow the FAQs instructions to fix this. Now any app relying on background services has to be excluded from the device optimized apps list..

Add ability to sort based on feed, rather than sorting changing every feed
I have some virtual podcasts, which are audiobooks, mixed with actual podcasts. Actual podcasts I have sorted using publication date. Virtual podcasts I want sorted by name, because publication date doesn't make sense. Would be great if my sorting choice is remembered for each specific feed
3 votesYou can already do this by going into Settings/Display/Podcasts and enabling Custom Sorting. After that each screen will have its own sorting mode

Breadcrumbs!!!
Is there any way I can easily go back to a Podcast I was just listening to? Or see my history? If you accidentally push a button and lose a podcast halfway through an episode you can't go back or see which one it is! My playback in progress list is incomplete. This is the worst and most frustrating part of PA besides not knowing where a track in the Recycle Bin came from if you cant see the art.
1 voteYou can Access the current podcast by pressing on the player banner displayed at the bottom of every screen. Then from the player screen you can swipe to see the playlist or press on the artwork to open the episode and access the remaining list of episodes of this podcast.
You can also use the navigation sidebar to open the 'Playback in progress' screen which shows the list of every episode you started listening to but didn't finished. Completed episodes can be seen from the playback History screen.
The recycle bin only contains episodes deleted automatically based on your automatic cleanup settings. They remain there for the duration you selected in the app settings. Please send me an email if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)

Custom view filter for each podcast
In each podcast, there is the drop down menu option to filter so I only see All, Recent (7 days), Downloaded, Favorite, etc. The default filter is All. The issue is that when I exit the podcast page or exit the app, the filter changes back to All if I had changed it to anything else. It would be good to be able to save the filter on a per podcast basis. So e.g. if I set the filter to Downloaded, when I exit the app or podcast page and later re-enter the podcast page the filter remains set to…
3 votesYou can already set the app so that each podcast will use its own filter. To do this, go to Settings/Display/Podcxast and set default filter to 'Last filter (per podcast)'

Programmatic advertising filter
I am happy with adverts in podcasts, it's how they pay their rent, but programmatic ads are lazy and obnoxious for me. Sometimes the volume level is completely different and it can ruin a nice peaceful show. Please can we have a clear indicator of which podcasts use this, and a filter for when we are searching for new podcasts? Maybe even a notification if already subscribed podcasts suddenly start using them?
Many thanks!1 voteSorry but it is impossible to know which podcast is usgin dynamic ad insertion. Sorry but this feature cannot be implemented

Highlight new episodes when refreshing
On the Recent Episode tab, would be great to have new episodes be highlighted or visually distinguished, just temporarily until you leave Recent Episodes.
When subscribed to many podcasts, a refesh could pull in dozens of episodes and it's unclear which ones I have/haven't looked at already.
1 voteThere's a dedicated screen with the list of new episodes. You can access it by pressing on the NEW episodes notification

Change notification icon to Playback symbol
Currently, the status bar icon of Podcast Addict is the logo. However, status bar icons are so small, that it hardly looks like anything but a random spot/dot.
I think it would be far more useful to change that icon into a "Play" (triangle) icon when podcast is being played, and to "Payse" ( II ) icon when playback is paused.
The icon would become functional and informative.1 voteI'm sorry but Google asks developers to show the app logo on the player notification

Hide notification icon
I am re-posting this suggestion, since the original request was denied based on false information.
"I love how customizable the notification settings are... but can you add the ability to hide the icon from the notification bar, while still listing the player when I swipe down? The player is always there, so no need to show an icon all the time. I have a samsung s21 with android 11. I don't think my previous phone did this. So to be clear, when I'm looking at my home screen, I don't want to see the podcast addict icon…
1 voteAndroid doesn't allow to post notifications without any icon. I'm sorry to hear that you don't accept this answer but again, this is how android works, and every new version of android adds even more constraint and forces older app to remove features...

Show dictionary option in the description pop out menu
In the Android system, when a user long-presses on a text area, the pop-up menu usually displays registered translation or dictionary apps to translate or look up the selected word. However, in the episode description text area of Podcast Addict, this option is not available in the pop-up menu that appears when long-pressed. Can this option be added?
3 votesYou can already long press on the episode description text and you will have access to the standard Android text selection menu

Home screen Widget rewind and fast forward
There should be a version of the home screen widget with rewind (10 sec) and fast forward (10 sec) instead of skip podcast
