Cross device synchronization
Would be great to be able to synchronize subscriptions, playlist, read status, ... between devices
4,454 votesThe next couple of versions will focus in getting reed of any existing issue, then I will resume working on this feature.
I may have found a solution to handle the charge necessary and which might not cost too much.Once a first beta with basic subscription syncing is available I will study the impact on the servers (and the cost), then I will add more syncing step by step, in order to sync the read status, favorite flag, playback progress, …
Hopefully I’ll be able to add this feature in the free version -
Add a Download Manager
Add a download manager to follow the download progress.
Allow parallel downloads, pause/resume, reordering, ...206 votesThe next version will allow to reorder downloads and to pause/resume them.
A first beta will be soon availableConcurrent downloads will be added in a future release
Since v3.27 the download manager as been improved and now displays an ‘error’ tab that will allow you to see a list of the past download failures, allowing you to retry the downloads without having to remember the episodes that failed to download in the first place

Allocate more space for episode titles in List View
In List View, episode titles are often truncated- probably more than half of them on the podcasts I listen to. Moving the publishing date and overflow button down to the next line could make the (otherwise gorgeous) List View a lot cleaner looking. Another way to handle this would be to provide a settings option to not display episode descriptions, making more room for the titles.
Keep up the good work! I tried everything on Android and Podcast Addict is the perfect podcast app.

Longer episode titles
The titles of episodes need a second line because one line is not enough

Add speed controls to Android Auto

Include an option to display the full episode title.
It is the only annoying element for myself, that the titles get cut off and I don't know what the episode is about. Every time I want to scan the episodes list I must turn on the auto rotation mode (which I keep off by default), come back to the app and turn the phone 90 degrees to see the full titles in the landscape mode. And once finished, go back and turn the auto rotation mode off. That's a hurdle. And I must repeat it often.
An option to display the full episodes titles in the list view would…

Automatic sleep timer
Add an option to automatically start the sleep timer in a specified time range. For example the sleep timer always runs between 10pm and 6am. This would allow users to not have to start it every night
19 votesI will add a new setting in Settings/Player/Timer called ‘Allways ON’
When enabled it will automatically start the sleep timer using the lastest timer settings when you start playing an episodeEdit: there will be no time range for now

Add file size to download warning
I love the "force download" warning when you're trying to download an episode with data downloads turned off. However, it would be cool if the file size was included in the warning, for concerned data users like myself.
14 votesThat’s a good idea. If the information is available then tit will be displayed in the next version of the app. Sometimes the information requires a connection to the podcast server to know about the file size and sometimes the server if not properly set up might not return it
Next beta will have this implemented -
One touch variable speed on/off
I'd like to be able to turn variable speed on and off with one touch. The high-speed selection would be whatever high speed was last used. This would be really handy for getting through commercials quickly, especially in the car.

Auto add virtual Podcast
Have an option to select a directory where every folder in it would automatically be set up as a virtual podcast.
12 votesNew beta now works differently. When you select a folder containing sub folders, the app asks you if you want to create a single podcast or as many podcasts as there are subfolders.
If you select the later, adding a new subfolder in your device memory later will not automatically create a new virtual podcast in the app -
Keep the title at full width while playing a playlist
This is just a cosmetic change. Currently a pause button on the right decreases the available width for the title.
Placing that button next to the progress bar, that is: only a little bit lower, would solve this. And it would both look better and show more of the most relevant title: the one now playing.

Moving titles in Playlist
