I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

    Duplicated entry: please vote for this feature instead

    http://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/4230275-mark-podcast-as-listened-when-is-95-done

    ========

    I will add a new setting to allow skipping episodes outro.
    This will be a podcast custom setting.
    You will have to select the number of seconds to skip at the end of the podcast. Once this threshold is reached the app will consider that the episode has been fully listened to so depending on your settings it will be marked as read, deleted, removes from the playlist and the resume position will be reset.

    This will be release in v3.4

    Edit: Available in the latest beta.
    Feel free to test it and to give me some feedback

    Thanks

  3. add more car friendly features.

    I would suggest adding bigger controls on the widget and controls for forward and rewind on the slide down menu interface. Basically, check out beyondpods interface and copy a few things they do that make it great to use while driving.

  4. Automatic deletion if there are old episodes or too many episodes downloaded

    Many podcast catchers have this feature. There is a limit of how many downloaded episodes the app can store. If there is more, the oldest one is deleted.
    Or there is a time limit (say one week). If an episode is older, it is deleted.

    Edit:
    This feature is available for testing in v1.23_beta2.
    Please join the Beta program using below instructions to test it.

    For now the settings are global. In a future version you will be able to override the global settings per podcast.

    Please join the Podcast Addict community on G+ to have access to the Podcast Addict beta: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/110703937937581583161

    Once it’s done open the following link: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.bambuna.podcastaddict

    I will need your feedback to make this feature right.

    Duplicated suggestion.
    Please vote for https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/4203798-a-feature-to-only-keep-a-specified-number-of-most-

    Edit: I will deliver this feature in different steps. 1st a global setting with the number of episodes to keep, then I will add a way to define this per podcast. Then I will add other way to automatically remove episodes (based of date, and more)

  5. Full state backup/restore

    As others partially suggest, it would be great to have a mean to synchronize/share (across multiple device) the reading state of episodes or to backup/restore it when reinstalling/replacing the device (and optionally making the app be aware of episodes previously downloaded and still present on the SD card folder).

    This suggestions contains 2 different things:
    - a way to backup/restore the app data when switching device or flashin a new ROM (https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/4200716-backup-episodes-read-to-preserved-this-info-in-the)
    This feature is onthis way and will be available in the upcoming v2.0
    - a way to synchronize in realtime the app data between 2 devices. Please go vote for https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/4115735-cross-device-synchronization
    This feature will take some time to be implemented so you will need to be patient ;)

  6. add a volume leveler, because some podcasters alternate from shouting to whispering in a heartbeat. Love your app - thank you!

    Unfortunately, it looks like in order to be able to connect and stream to a Sonos device, the content would need to be hosted on Podcast Addict Servers. Because of this restriction, this feature won’t be available in Podcast Addict…

  9. include native sonos support.

    Any plans to add native songs support? Playing through podcast addict allows for a much better experience and the ability to take advantage of all its great features!

  10. Add background audio playback for youtube subsciptions

    Would be great to have an option for some youtube channels i subscribe to with PA to have the audio only play in pa/external player as audio only (and thus can listen to shows with screen off etc)

    thx!

  11. Only keep X most recent episodes downloaded / Delete least recent, downloaded episode

    The app should have the option to automatically delete the least recent episode currently downloaded to make room for new episodes as they become available when the user has defined a maximum number of episodes to keep downloaded.

    Current behaviour when using automatic downloads of episodes in Archive mode, used in conjunction with the "Keep at most" setting in Automatic cleanup, results in new episodes to not be downloaded if the user defined limit of episodes to keep is already reached. If the user then manually downloads the latest episode a seemingly random downloaded episode from the podcast is deleted…

    Please disable the archive mode. Then the app will download new episodes as they are published up to X episodes. After that every time a new episode is published the app will delete the oldest downloaded one before downloading the new episode

  12. To include Portugal's RTP

    Hello, I just downloaded the app and am LOVING IT! Congratulations. It would be much appreciated if the podcasts from rtp.pt/antena1/podcasts would be added as well. Thank you!

  14. Please add a fast forward button to the widget and notification shade

    This will make it much easier to use the app with headphones or bluetooth that don't have a built in fast forward button.

  17. Create a bookmark system.

    So that I can mark a particular time to playback later without having to search for it.

  19. Xavier, please make a radio app. We're stuck with the crappy ones that already exist

    A radio app as intuitive, simple and functional as PA doesn't exist. Tunein has become a Rube Goldberg machine unable to manage its favorites. Radio.fr is fine but lack functionalities and the UI is outdated
    A PA-like radio app would be at least equally successful I think.

    L'usine à gaz qu'est devenu Tunein et l'absence d'une vrai concurrence me fait panser qu'une app radio à la PA serait une parfaite alternative.
