  1. Multiple selection for erasing downloaded episodes

    it would be nice to have the option to select one by one the downloaded episodes we want to delete, then push a button "Delete selected". Currently, it is possible to delete in one click all episodes, or in many clicks episode by episode.

  2. Allow temporarily 3G download

    If you want to temporarily download a podcast on 3G connection (short podcast/no Wifi connection...), you need to deactivate Wifi download, download the podcast then reactivate WiFi download.
    Adding a "Force download" in podcast menu will be great :)

    Until I implement a ‘real’ download manager, the next version will allow you to long press on an episode in the ‘Download manager screen’ and select ‘Force download’. This will allow to download THIS episode while bypassing the app network settings. This flag will reset when the app gets killed or the if the device is rebooted. If you don’t enable this in for the first episode in the download queue, then it won’t do anything until the 1st episode is downloaded.

    This will be implemented in the next version (v3.3)

    Edit: Delivered in v3.3

  4. Add an 'AMOLED' or 'Deep Black' theme would be great.

    For users which use the application during night or with a very low level of light, an additional 'AMOLED' or 'Deep Black' theme would be really great. Usually, all the apps using a true 'AMOLED' theme (if available) are better to save battery.

    Now available in the latest version of the app

    ==========

    Next version will have a new ‘Black AMOLED theme’
    The only difference will be that the screen background will now use a true black color
    You can test it in the upcoming beta

  5. Automatic full backup on Google Drive

  6. Exclude some podcasts from sync to reduce traffic => Some podcasts are refreshed only once a week/month

    It would be awesome if one could modify the time for manual refreshing for every podcast separately. There are some podcasts with >500 episodes which upload new casts only once a month. So it is useless to refresh them once or twice a day (not by automatic refresh [I don't like that] but my manual refreshing) when I want to refresh my daily casts (like news or daily documentaries). So it would be perfect, to modify the duration for refreshing like "everytime when refresh manually [standard]", "once a week [with starting date or weekday]", "once a month [with starting date]"…

    A new feature has been delivered in the latest v3.8

    It allows you do disable the update of specific podcasts. You can access this settings by long pressing on the podcast and then selecting Custom settings.
    The only way to update such podcasts will be to open the podcast screen and press on the toolbar update button.

    Please let me know if I need to keep this feature request open.

    Thanks

  7. add Mono Audio Support

  8. Episodes marked read are not being deleted

    When I use the option to mark older episodes as 'read' the downloaded episodes are not being automatically deleted as they should be if that setting is active for the podcast.

    The only way around this is to manually delete each episode, which can take a long time to do.

    Thanks!

  9. Delete episodes

    Have the ability to delete individual episodes off the app so you don't have 200+ just sitting there rather than just hiding them.

    Edit: delivered in v3.9

    ==========

    Next version will have a new setting in ‘Automatic cleanup’ called ‘Keep synced with RSS feed’. It can be enabled globally or per podcast.
    This feature will automatically delete episode articles which aren’t available in the RSS feed anymore.
    Downloaded / favorite / unread episodes won’t be affected

    Thanks to Daniel for this suggestion

    Edit: I just published a new version with this feature. It should be live in the next hour. Please let me know if you have any issue/feedback
    Thanks

  11. Add new sorting and filtering/view options to "downloaded episodes"

    I want to be able to easily play all of the downloaded episodes from one specific podcast feed in oldest to newest order. Currently this is difficult.
    When a podcast feed has dozens of unread episodes, finding the downloaded ones can be difficult. One way to fix this would be to change the "view" options when looking in a specific podcast feed. Currently you can "view all episodes" or "hide read episodes". If you could add "view only downloaded episodes" then this would solve my problem.
    Another approach would be to change the "Downloaded episodes" view and allow sorting in…

    You should now be able to do this in the latest v2.28.
    You can go into the ‘Downloaded episodes’ screen and filter by podcast.

    It may not be exactly what you were looking for, but the result should be the same.
    Please let me know if I need to reopn,e this.

    Thanks

  12. Adding online radio stations streamings

    I would like to manage all my listenings only with one app. It would be great if there were the possibility of listening live radio stations.

    I disvovered the power of podcast managers learning English, so I would like that Podcast Addict had a feature to listen to BBC Radio 4 and 4 xtra live, etc., or any other. Now I have to do it using another app as Tune In.

    Thank you very much.

    Edit: delivered in v3.11

    Edit: I just published a first beta of the v3.11
    Please test it and let me know what you think about the Live stream feature.
    Thanks

    Should be available in v3.11.
    It will remain ‘in beta’ for quite some time, but basic features should work fine in v3.11

  13. Log in feature

    I think it should be possible to login so that if we lose our phone the next time we get the app we don't have to sit and remember which podcasts we have subscribed to and figure out which ones we've already listened to

    The app now allows you to sign in using your Google Drive account. Then all your data is automatically saved to the cloud once a day. If you lose or c change devices, you just have to sign-in again to restore all your data. However there’s no cross device syncing for now

  14. Add a secondary (and possibly 3rd) sorting priority to playlist

    I have my playlist set to sort by priority, and right now that's all I can do. I'd like to be able to sort by priority THEN by date published. I'd imagine maybe a number (1) (2) (3) identifier in the sorting options could be added for this.

    Sorry for the delay…
    This feature will be available in v3.38 but only for the playlist

    Edit: A beta with this feature will be available within the hour.
    Please test it and let me know how it works for you so I can customize it before releasing the final version.

  15. Backup episodes read to preserved this info in the application needs to be reinstalled

    Episodes read are lost if application needs to be re-installed. This information should be backed up with other application user preferences. Backing up only subscriptions is inadequate for recovery.

    This feature has been delivered in v2.0.×. It allows you to backup everything (settings, subscriptions, episode flags, episode progress, playlist, …) except downloaded media files like episodes and thumbnails. The restore feature will allow you to trigger a full re-download of the episodes that were already downloaded on your previous device unless you copied them manually.
