Add customizable saveable playlists.
I wish to suggest you add the ability to create multiple playlists and be able to save them for future use. For instance, I listen to The Thrilling Adventure Hour, but modify the play order for specific segements. I would like to be able to set up a playlist of all TAH Sparks Nevada episodes and one of all Beyond Belief epdisodes. Thanks for your consideration gals and guys and other lifeforms!
132 votesYou can already do what you’re asking.
If you only want to play the episodes of a specific podcast, please go into the podcast episodes list screen and press on an episode play button. The app will then create a temporary playlist with all the episodes of that podcast.
You can also use the playlist Custom tab to select a category and listen to its episodes. You can edit existing categories or create new ones.Version 2020.2 allows you to set a filter for each category to only show specific episodes of the category based on their status (played, downloaded, favorites), publication date, …

Live radio stream recording on schedule (DVR feature)
Now that Podcast Addict supports live streams, imagine if it could be configured to automatically start recording one of your favorite radio shows, then listen later at 2x speed.
120 votesSorry but this will not be implemented as doing so would require a signed agreement with every single radio which is of course not an option. Sorry but there’s no legal way to implement this

Include Fable and Folly in your Network Listing
Please consider adding Fable and Folly to your Network section as we have a ton of great audio fiction shows from Alba Salix to The Amelia Project, We Fix Space Junk, Marsfall and more!
102 votesUnfortunately the podcasts from this network are not using a similar name in the author field and there’s no way to automatically identify those podcasts are being part of this network. The only way I can add a new network is if I can set rules to automatically identify podcasts as being part of this network

========
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 feedbackThanks

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.
68 votesThe player already has a ‘car mode’ layout with huge controls.
Is it what you’re looking for ?
If not please give me more detail.Thanks

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.57 votesEdit:
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)

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).
54 votesThis 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 ;) -

Please allow casting to Sonos or other WiFi /networked speaker systems
As an extension of the players ability to cast to Chromecast, include the option to cast to Sonos or other networked media devices.

Mixcloud feed
Be able to get the mixcloud feed, because some podcasts are migrating to this platform and I couldn't get it to work.
43 votesSorry but Mixcloud doesn’t provide any RSS feed and no legal way to do this. Sonme tools might exist that allows you to generate a RSS feed from a Mixcloud channel, but there’s nothing I can do on Podcast Addict side

Get old episodes of a podcast
I've seen you've rejected this idea before, but it's a must for me. Let me explain.
You say that you show all the episodes provided by the RSS. And it's true. This is the most popular spanish podcast:
http://www.cadenaser.com/rssaudio/milenium.html
It only shows 11 items (and that's what PA shows). But if you go to iVoox and look for the same podcast, it says that there are 885 audios, and you can browse (and listen) all of them.
The WordPress RSS, for example, allow to add a parameter to the RSS URL (?paged=2) to browse older items.
Is there any way…
38 votesSorry but Podcast apps can only show the content provided by the RSS feeds you subscribed to.
This content is managed by the podcasters.
If they use RSS standards to give access to archives, then you will get all the older episodes as Podcast Addict supports feed pagination.However keeping a cache of older content not in the RSS feed is NOT legal without a signed authorization from the authors, which is of course not possibles with millions of podcasts available.
Any app that is currently doing this is violating the terms of services and doing this without the approval of the podcasters…

Add an option to pause playback when on vibrate and a call is received.
When I receive a call while my phone is on vibrate, playback won't pause as there is no request for audio focus. Can an option be added to pause the podcast when a call is received even when on vibrate and there is no audio focus request to prevent missed calls?
36 votesWha you’re describing is a system bug or a phone app bug.
The app can only pause when another app asks for audio focus. There’s no such thing as being notified if the device vibrate.
Sorry I cannot be of more help with this
