Cross device synchronization
Would be great to be able to synchronize subscriptions, playlist, read status, ... between devices

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

"This feature will be added in 2014. But it requires a lot of work server side and also to find a solution that won't cost to much... So it will take a few month to implement it"

Why not sync the data to Google Drive on Android, and whatever cloud service is naturally available in iOS? This should have zero cost to you, since it uses bandwidth and space from the user.

Feature still a no show. Finally, it's a deal breaker.

I really, really, REALLY don't want to leave PA and find another podcast app and have been putting it off hoping you would offer a solution.
You have a really good app that has won out over all others I've tried but the ability to sync between devices is a big enough issue that I'm afraid the time to move on is coming soon. I'm patient but not 2 years patient.

Wow. I'm actually happy this hasn't been added in the past 5 years. Was really pulling my hair trying to figure out which podcast app to go with. No device sync is a huge deal breaker for me. Addict not even considering it for 5 years....think I'll go with one of the many other apps. Liking pocket casts so far.
Thanks for not doing anything, PA!

This is going to be a requirement soon, and I fear you're running out of time. I'm already looking for a way to seemlessly listen to podcasts between devices - Phone, Tablet, Alexa, PC. You've made a great app for Android, but it's 2018, and you really risk missing your window of opportunity here. I will switch apps over this ability, and I'm certain many others feel the same.

I'd love it if across device sync came available. Too be honest, it's a bit of a deal breaker of not. I now find myself looking for good alternatives that support that function. Hope to see it soon on podcast addict.

Agree with the rest: This is a must have feature. One which I would pay for. Great App. It has changed my life for the better!

Maybe make it to where we can create an account and log in from multiple devices and have the app synced between multiple devices through a log in account.

Hey there, your announcement of the beta is now 3.5 years ago.
Did I missed this functionality?
Thanks :)

My Nexus 5X just crashed (boot loop ...) and I don't have a recent backup of my subscription ... Is this idea always open ? If at least we had an automatic backup on Google Drive (like WhatsApp does) it would save me ...
