When an outlet releases a podcast they may release the first episode to subscribers to all of the podcast channels they operate. Normally with the same title. If this is detected you could prompt 'mark same episode in other subscription as played' or something like that

A global setting to remove pre-defined category tags for new podcasts by default.

The podcasts/podcast providers own category rarely fits your own system.
If you doesn't only listen to English pods, but multiple languages, the pre-defined categories become chaos very fast and unusable as every category will exist in different languages with different pods in each.
It's quite a lot of work sorting it with deleting, ending up just using undefined and scrolling through it.

I would like to keep track of what episodes I've listened to and which ones I have in my queue and which ones I think are stupid. I would like to export the db of all the episodes of all the podcasts I subscribe to, and their status (Listened, in queue, in progress, favorite, etc), preferably as csv, but any format is fine.

I usually listen to podcasts at x1.5 speed but every once in a while and for different reason I like to listen to it at normal speed.

Having to click many times in menus to do it is annoying.

Would be nice to have slower/faster buttons.

Thanks for the great app.

Add an option to send not listened downloaded podcasts randomly to the playlist

I use a three row widget, yet the buttons are still quite small. I often need to press the button twice, because I miss the button I wanted. Thanks.

Some podcasts have changed a lot over the years and some have issues with their feed where old episodes keep popping up as new and unlistened. Is it possible to add a filter to automatically exclude podcasts released like "greater than 5 years ago" or something like that?

Thanks much!

It would be nice if I don't know how long it would be, so I can focus on the listening experience

I would like to make Bookmark Titles bold, to make them stand out from Bookmark Descriptions. Maybe even adjust the size to make them stand out even more.
Thanks

Once a bookmark has been selected/clicked on (in the bookmarks screen), and it starts playing, when I click on it again, nothing happens. I would like it to start playing from the beginning, which is what happens when I click on any other bookmark. Why not the one that is already playing.
Thanks

When editing bookmarks timeline, sometimes one second less is too little and one second more is too much. Would be nice to have something in between.
Thanks

Can you add a feature where exoplayer videos are played at the middle of the screen instead of the top of screen?

Can you add a feature to sort podcast episodes by the percentage played? Like episodes that are 50% complete are sorted above episodes that are 25% complete?

Adding "Played time" instead or in addition to "Remaining time" in sorting options to put partially played episodes at the top in descending order of percentage played regardless of date or overall duration, and selecting a second sorting option would sort all the un played episodes thereafter according to our preference (e.g. Date)

Since marking a feed as private disables sharing (and there doesn't appear to be a way to unmark it), it's currently not possible to share the playback URL with 3rd party players. Could you please always show the "Share" menu option if "Play with a 3rd party player" is selected, or alternatively make the visibility of "Share" or the privacy level of a feed a feed-configurable option?

There is a podcast that has a volume that's just too loud, especially when I want to listen as I fall asleep. Like volume boost, I'd like to be able to customize cutting the volume by some custom amount. The headphone volume doesn't diminish far enough.

This was dumb(?) user error. I just changed internet providers and Podcast Addict stopped downloading episodes even though other apps were working fine. I forgot I had filtered the WiFi networks Podcast Addict is allowed to connect to. If the error message had said the connection was unauthorized because of WiFi filtering within the application settings, and/or provided a link to those settings, I might not have spent an hour trying to figure out the problem.
