How I would like my podcast app to work
There are too many options and it isn't clear how they work. What I want doesn't seem unreasonable. I have other wishes but basically these are the most important features.
I want to be able to specify how many episodes I want available. I want to specify whether to go from older to newer or newer to older. I want episodes deleted after I have listened AND I want the next episode to queue up. I DON'T WANT TO SEE OLDER, LISTENED TO EPISODES TO SHOW AT ALL. I DON'T WANT TO SEE UNDOWNLOADED FUTURE EPISODES TO SHOW AT ALL!!!! This is important. Currently, listened to episodes are apparently deleted BUT THE DAMN THINGS STILL SHOW UP WITH A DOWNLOAD ICON. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO SCROLL THROUGH THE DAMN THINGS TO FIGURE OUT WERE I AM CURRENTLY LISTENING.
I don't want to see all the future undownloaded episodes. ALL I WANT TO SEE ARE THE UN-LISTENED TO, DOWNLOADED EPISODES!
This is important. As the app works now, I constantly have to scroll through fucking dozens if not hundreds of episodes to get to where the hell I am listening. IT IS REALLY REALLY REALLY IRRITATING - ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS UNNECESSARY AND WHO THE HELL WANTS TO SEE AND WADE THROUGH ALL THAT CRAP.
This is a very good app. However, it suffers from having too many settings and not being geared to most listeners basic needs and wants.
