  1. Podcast searches should match partial words, for example "freak" should find "freakonomics"

    When searching for a podcast to subscribe to, "freak" should find "freakonomics". The first use case is so save time, the second use case is that a title like this (with a made up word) might be hard for some people to spell.

    Freakonomics will match here BUT, it will have a lower scrore than the other podcasts using the word freak, therefore it might be push up so low in the list that it won't be visible. You can switch to the Apple podcast search engine in the app if you prefer a different behavior

  3. Quick Persistent Chapter mute

    When you hold a chapters mute icon it adds or removes it from the filter list for that podcast. A color change to indicate one time vs persistent mute would also be nice.

    Thank you for your wonderful work.

  4. Option to hide repeat episodes from view

    Adding a filter to hide from view "re-runs" or repeat episodes similar to how you can hide fully listened to podcasts from the home screen. Many podcasts repeat episodes to meet their schedule but if you're a regular listener, or just want an easier way to see the universe of episode without the clutter, it's helpful to weed out the repeats.

  5. Option to prevent download of repeat episodes if you've selected auto download of episodes

    I do not believe there is an option to prevent the download of "re-runs" or repeat episodes when you have auto download selected for a podcast. Many podcasts repeat episodes to meet their schedule. I recognize that the repeated episodes may not match up perfectly with the original but an imperfect filter would be better than none.

  7. create folder for episodes marked as played to unclutter Recent Episodes folder

    If I have a couple of dozens of new episodes I may not necessarily want to play all of thenm. As I mark them "played", they still remain in Recent Episodes creating clutter over time. If you move the "Marked as Played" episodes to a dedicated folder, e.g., " Episodes Marked as Played" that'll make Recent Episodes folder more neat focused and friendly.

  8. Shuffle button for selected podcasts and episodes

    Not all podcasts are sequential. I would like the ability to shuffle episodes in selected podcasts so I can listen to a random episode among those that are not sequential.

  9. Notes for podcasts

    Would be a nice feature to be able to keep a note as to how the story left off if time between episodes is too long and you don't need to re listen to episodes again.

  10. Bookmark "Direct Play"

    Add the possibility to play a episode when a bookmark is selected (actually it does nothing, podcast must be "played" to active bookmark selection.
    Eventually add a time option to play the bookmark with delayed time before.

  11. Add rules to download or not episodes

    In the feed podcast of the RMC radio for exemple there is the full emission during 3 hours more 1 episode for the first hour and this for the second hour and this for the third and the chronique of X etc..
    It would be great to have rules like (do not)/download episode only if longer/shorter Than X minutes
    Download only if bigger than X Mo.

  12. SD Card. Automatic cleanup and episode deletion

    Add the ability to manually delete episodes and automatic cleanup when storing files, particularly virtual podcasts, on a memory card outside of the app's folder. Apparently, this requires asking for permission to write to the memory card, like third-party file managers or other apps that allow you to create/delete files do, using Android Storage Access Framework.

  13. While downloading, the episode appears (in grey) in the playlist so we can place it where we want

    I usually download manually episode I want to listen first while I already have many episode in my playlist.
    I set the new downloads to be added automatically in the playlist and they appear at the end.

    But it would be very nice if a "downloading" or a "to be downloaded" episode could appears in the playlist in grey, so we can already place it where we want in the playlist (when I manually download an episode it is because I want to listen it immediately of after an ending one).

    Besides, those "ghost" episodes order in the playlist can…

    You can enable Settings/Download/Play downloading episodes to do this. So if you set the app to automatically add downloaded episodes to the playlist you will see the episode in the playlist as soon as the download starts. Feel free to contact me if I misunderstood what you were asking (Settings/Feedback)

  14. Make it possible to remove the recent episode from every screen

    Good god, man. How do I remove the super-annoying, attention stealing, animated, scrolling most recent episode that I am completely done with, from the bottom of every screen in the whole app?!

    Sorry but this is not possible for now. There’s a standard in the RSS feeds that allows podcasters to set a flag for trailers. There’s, unfortunately, nothing for rerun. So, first a standard needs to be created then it needs to be adopted.
    But most podcasters won’t want to adopt this because they want listeners to listen to the reruns, not to skip them ;)

  16. Have a short "rewind/ back" option

    Have a 10 sec back button to replay just a short segment. The fast back button or slider is too haphazard.

    You can use the skip automatic rewind for this. However I don’t understand what the problem is with the rewind button. It just skips -15s. Please send me an email with more details so I can understand what the issue is (Setting/Feedback)

  17. Delete episode but leave unplayed or unread

    I have autodownload (on wifi) enabled, but often I want to delete a download, but leave the episode unplayed to go back to later. Right now, when I delete the episode, it then marks it as played, which is what I would want the default to be on the playlist. An option in the long press to leave unread at the same time would be useful. This would be when I am on the individual podcast's episode list page

  18. Keep episode image when podcast has been watched

    Maybe I missed a flag, but...

    Whenever a podcast episode is finished/watched, the podcast image gets replaced by the generic podcast image, with the "check". Would like to keep the individual episode's image, but with the "check".

  19. Allow "refresh metadata" for virtual podcasts

    When you have a podcast (in this case a virtual podcast), add option to refresh the metadata. This is not just "looking for new episodes", but "update title", etc. When I click "refresh", it simply looks for new episodes, but does not display any changed/corrected "titles".

    NOTE: Would like to KEEP the watched status.

    You can select multiple episodes (or all of them) and use the Refresh from RSS feed option for this. The app will refresh the information based on the current file metadata. Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)

  20. Continuous playback - avoiding playing episodes of one podcast one after another

    I love the Continuous playback function. I use it with priorities - if a new eposide of podcast that I like appears, it goes higher on a virtual list.

    But sometimes, if I start listening after longer break and I have many episodes to listen, it makes me listen all episodes of podcast with higer priority before episodes of other podcasts. I don't like to listen many episodes of one podcast one after another.

    I'll give you an example:

    podcast A - priority 40 - 2 episodes to listen
    podcast B - priority 30 - 2 episodes to listen
