mark a episode as read if you start playing something els in the last five minutes of the podcast
Hi it would be good if an episode will be marked as read if you stop the episode within the last five minutes or start listening to something els. I don't care about something to removes outros because I don't want that. I want the app to understand that I am done with an episode if I start listening to something els or stooping the episode within the last five minutes. Long pressing to mark it as read doesn't solve this problem eather!

Strong opinions on this idea. Myself, I'd really like what Jaro was suggesting. An option that marks the episode read when you are within 5min, 2min, 1min, 30sec, 15sec, 0sec of the end. Default would be 0sec so that normal behaviour doesn't change. Also this wouldn't the same as the skip outro, sometimes I don't want to skip the ads. And swiping is easy enough, but sometimes I don't delete the ep right away when e.g. I want to let my gf listen to it...

@Jaro Black you can already do so by setting the Skip outro parameter in the podcast custom settings

5 Minutes is a really long period. But i would like an opption with a freely adjustable timeframe, where a podcast is considered "read". i think i would go for 15 or 30 Seconds.

I don't like this. Many podcasts I listen to are actually less than 5m.

I totally don't agree with this idea. If you want to delete your episode, just swipe right on your playlist and select "Delete and remove from the playlist".

Rather than a set time interval I think it would be better if you could do it based on a percentage. I.e. mark as read when 98% of the episode has been heard. That way it will adjust based on the length of the podcast.

Please don't do this. I'm not done with a podcast, simply because I paused it during the last five minutes. It's easy to swipe sideways if you're done.
