  2. Option to start app in playlist mode and have one touch button to clear and enqueue downloaded episodes

    Would be great to have a default option to have the app start up to playlist screen. Then, in order to get rid of old episodes and add the most recent ones, would be good to have a one-touch "clear and enqueue" button (essentially combining the current "clear playlist" and "enqueue downloaded" options

    You can already do that. Please follow the FAQ instructions to open the app on the screen of your choice.
    You can enqueue downloaded episodes and clear undownloaded episodes from the playlist screen, but the best way might be to enable automatic removal of episodes once they have been listen to and to enable automatic playlist for downloaded episodes

  3. Would love to see a way to be able to log in for easier way of managing and syncing

  4. Great program. It would be great if all new episodes would be displayed on startup instead of the podcast names.

  7. stop app from causing phone to vibrate twice upon connecting to Bluetooth receiver (car audio)

    The app causes the phone to vibrate whenever it gets connected to car's Bluetooth. This is annoying because the vibration is similar to receiving a phone call. There should be an option to disable this "feature". Experienced this on both Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 5. Doesn't happen after uninstalling podcast addict.

    The app doesn’t handle anything related to the sound output.
    The only vobration the app can do is if you enabled Vibrate in Settings/Notification, but it doesn’t do anything related to the playback.
    Moreover the app cannot interact with any other app,..

  8. Notify user when SoundCloud public RSS is not available

    I added a few SoundCloud URLs (e.g. soundcloud.com/nasa) but I didn't receive any episode list. I was confused for a minute. Then I checked their RSS url which didn't contain anything.

    Thus, my suggestion.

    my version: 2.23 (build 333)

    Regarding the issue, the lock screen widget works fine. You’re facing a lollipop bug when the ‘sensitive notifications’ are hidden from the lock screen widget.

  12. bug report: failed downloads aren't retried

    I've noticed that I have a lot of episodes listed but not downloaded. This even though I have repeatedly hit the "podcast update" button. It looks like if an episodes fails to download I must manually select the episode to download it. This is very frustrating when I have hundreds of failed downloads.

    Downloads are always retried, in case there’s a connection issue on the device. But they aren’t retried when there’s a server issue. In that case downloading it manually will fail as well, unless you wait some time and the podcast server issue has been fixed.
    I don’t understand why you’re also talking about the update button. Updating the feed won’t change anything to the way episodes are downloaded.

    Unless you’re talking about feed update and not episode download…

    Anyway, this page is dedicated to new feature request. Please use the page Contact Support button to open a ticket and give more details about the issue.
    Are you having error messages ? What are the feed RSS url ? …

    Thanks

    Regarding the issue, pressing the back button doesn’t have any effect on the player, unless you’re watching a video. It just go back to the previous screen or exit the app depending on which screen you were.
    If you’re watching a video, you need to allow background playback in Settings/Player

  14. allow podcasts to at least resume playing when a game launches or similar app

    At the moment when listening to a podcast if I launch plants vs zombies the podcast doesn't just pause it stops completely and won't allow both to run at the same time

    Android has different audio channels. Podcast Addict uses the STREAM_MUSIC channel. Only one app can play on a specific channel at a time. So if this other app uses the same channel to play some sound, then Podcast Addict won’t be able to play and will stop. This is the normal behavior

  15. Give a list of supported external players.

    In one of my subscriptions there is an occasional video podcast. The internal player says that it doesn't support the format (its an mp4). I have several other apps that can play videos on my phone but I can only choose 1 other one, which happens to be quickpic. I know the video works because I can copy it to my compute and play it just fine. Is there a list somewhere that says what's compatable with pa?

    When you press the menu entry to play an episode using a 3rd party player, Android will automatically display the list of apps installed supporting this file extension. It doesn’t means necessarily that they will be able to play the file, but they can play file with the same extension.
    You can try MX Player or VLC which aren’t using the device built-in mediaplayer service so they support more encoding.

  16. enable lock screen widget for Android Lollypop.

    Non il etait là avant la diffusion de l’épisode 0. Il est accessible via le moteur de recherche et dans le réseau de podcasts ‘Frenchspin’
    De plus tu peux t’abonner à n’importe quel podcast par un simple copier/coller d’un flux RSS dans l’app

  18. Allow storage of downloaded episodes to an external SD card

    You can store the episodes on the SD card. You have to change the default storage location in Settings/Download/Storage location. Make sure to follow the instructions especially if you’re on KitKat. You can also delete episodes automatically in Settings/Automatic cleanup or ‘en masse’ by selecting them

  19. Pause when GPS talks

    Some other apps like tunein have a better system concerning other apps using sound in the same time.

    I often use your app on motorcycle and when my gps is talking, both sounds are simultaneous. So I understand none of them.
    A pause/play feauture in that case will be great.

    Furthermore when i receive a call, the podcast don't always unpause after it.

    Last point, when I call someone, the podcast never unpause after it.

    Thanks for your great app

    The app follows Android best practice for the Audio focus. You can still change the default behavior in Settings/Player if you want the app to pause in case of a short audio notification.
    The app will resume playback after a phone call except if you disconnected a headset during the phone call or if Android killed the app to free some resources
