Just a heads up regarding the latest version of the app. It doesn’t provide cross device syncing yet, but it allows you to sign in to your Google Drive account and have all your data automatically backed up to make sure they are safe at all time. It also makes restoring the data on a new device really easy.
You can go into Settings/Backup to enable this and sign-in
Thanks

    Any word on this @admin ? It's been years and I've recently decided to jump ship from using Podcast Addict and pocket casts to using your service exclusively. One of the major things that kept me from doing it earlier was that I liked the cross platform idea. Any update/feedback would be greatly appreciated.

    I think you can now synchronize with Google drive without having to pay anymore. It's like a hidden storage like what's app is using or so.

    I really would like to see this feature, but it's really broad now. Does this include LAN sync or cloud sync? Subscription or downloaded episodes as well? Does it sync progress?

    My suggestion is to split up this feature request to see what users really want.

    So I have to say that this idea is second on the list of top ideas, it has nearly 5,000 votes, and there have been comments constantly on it since the start of it until current day. However, I find it funny that the developer is spending so much focus on things with Android Auto (which as a note was suggested in April 2015 and completed 7 months later) but yet this idea has been requested since June 2013 and it says it is started, but 6 years later and we are still waiting. C'mon developer, please give us an update on where you are with this feature. I am sure I speak for us all when I say that it feels like you have forgotten about us and this request or that you just don't care about it.

    Yeah, please give us an update on this! The most popular feature request is about a desktop application with synchronization (https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/6531942-having-a-computer-based-version-of-podcast-addict) and there are some services (like gpodder: https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/4351924-add-support-for-https-gpodder-net) that can deliver this feature. So I think there can be some sort of discussion about the best way to achieve synchronization.

    Wow! The started comment is almost 4 years old. Can we get a status on this "Started" suggestion? I have 3 devices that I listen and watch podcasts on. I left PA for Pocketcast because PA didn't have this feature. I always liked the GUI on PA better than Pocketcast. Now with the release of the, even more, dorked-up Pocketcast v7, I'm back, but still would like the ability to sync across devices.

    Jumping ship from Pocket Casts due to the V7 issues but I need sync. Plenty of people here asking for it. I will totally pay for this, take my money!

    Would pay subscription for this functionality. Abandoned the app solely as a result of its absence.

  • David Lucas commented  ·   ·  Flag as inappropriate

    I would really like this feature to maintain my place in my playlist across both my phone and my in-dash Android head unit.
