  2. Include an outdated/late/old episodes download mode

    We should be able to AUTOMATICALY download late/belated episodes in a chosen feed.

    As soon as we can subscribe to an youtube chanel (like http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxj9UAX4Em-Lz5btngxMVZxf_B44GETVz) or a podcast that has been discontinued, should be a great resource, if besides being able to download any new episodes, we could have an option to download any older episodes (respecting the configured order).

    This could improve the use of the app to consume learning materials from youtube, as well as permits that soneone (like me) can review and revive all the podcast history.

    It looks like what you're asking for is already available in the app.

    Please enable the following settings:


    - Settings/Download/Automatic download

    - Settings/Download/Archive mode

    - Settings/Download/Download older first

    - Settings/Automatic cleanup/Keep at most => 2 ?


    The app will then download the oldest 2 unplayed episodes for each podcasts. Then as soon as you/re done listening to one if this episode the app will delete it and download another unplayed episode.


    If you only want this behavior for specific podcsts, enable this per podcast instead of globally.


    If I misunderstood the feature request, please send me an email so I can gather more information (Settings/Feedback)


    Thanks

  3. 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!

    You 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, …

    Feel free to send me an email if you have any question (Settings/Feedback/Email)
    Thanks

  5. 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.

  6. Increase 'read' tolerance

    Love your app, by the way. Best on the market I think, and I have done some research. I have the delete episode after listening setting on, and I'm frustrated when I stop the podcast with a minute left, and it still doesn't count it as read. It would be nice to have more tolerance there so that all the episodes I do listen to get deleted. I'm sure there are other uses for this feature.

    Unfortunately 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

  8. Mark as read if less than x minutes luft

    A function that marks the episode as read if it is, for exempel, less than 5 minutes less.

    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

  9. 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.

  10. 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)

  11. 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 ;)

  12. 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…

  14. add an alarm feature, so I can wake up to the next podcast on my playlist!

    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!
