Add to "reading in progress episodes" how much of it you already listened to.
I'm suffering from the mediatek device bug as this user: https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/8769643-playback-error
As the developer stated he cannot do anything about because it's the fault of the internal player of the device itself.
At the moment I'm handling this as follows: Instead of just pressing "play" to resume listening I look at the podcast addict player page and memorize how much of the podcast I have already listended to. Then, after the player jumps to anywhere when pressing "play" I can go to the time manually where I actually stopped listening.
Unfortunately you can only see how much you have already listened to of the one podcast you listened last to. From all other "reading in progress-episodes" you can only see the small bar on the bottom of the logo which is too vague to navigate precise.
So I suggest that you add to the "reading progress-episodes" how much one already has listened to. Then those with the bug can look at any episode they wish to resume and see how much they already have listened to in order to skip there manually afterwards.
For all other users I think it would also interesting how much they already have listened to.
v3.18 will allow you to see the remaining time in the episode screen (if you toggled the duration display to remaining time)
The “Reading in progress” screen sill show you the remaining time as well or the current playback position (I still have to decide)
Edit: Delivered in v3.18

You are the best, thank you! That worked perfectly! I tried it in the episode list and in the episode, but forgot to try it in the player screen. Sorry, I will use the email the next time, but I don't think I will need to as I never have problems with your great app! :) Have a great day!

You can press on the player screen remaining time/duration text to toggle the display -

I seem to have accidentally disabled it and now it shows again only the total length of the episode. How can I switch back to remaining time?

I have the same problem on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and since I listen to podcasts almost all the time, thats a really big problem for me.
