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

So, the top suggestion has been in development for over 2 years? I prefer podcast addict but I've installed others that have sync, I guess I'll switch. You mentioned finding something cheap, please explain why you don't just use the customer's cloud storage, let me choose the cloud folder for the sync. I would even pay for a subscription to have it sync to accross Android & iOS, this could be another source of revenue for you.

Necessary feature. Until added and stable, cannot use app in my daily life.

I really would like to come back, but I have three devices and therefore I need the sync. That's why I'm on PocketCast at the moment.

I love podcast addict, but I have had to switch to PocketCasts for syncing and a web interface. I miss PodcastAddict, though. Please let us in the fanbase know if there is anything we can do to help with this.

I was thinking this could be achieved using Google Drive synchronization or Dropbox which are the two most popular ones. I know Dropbox dropped third party sync support, but that would not touch servers per se, right?

Curious why this feature is not just adding support for one of the following options:
1.) Expose the file to a public location on Android so that the user can sync the file manually using tools like Tasker to automate the process.
2.) Incorporate file sharing options like Dropbox, Box, SugarSync, etc. to be centric of the syncing. -

Any update on syncing across devices? This would be an amazing feature!

I'm shocked it's been 3 years since the original request AND almost a year w/o an update and clearly, there's a lot of interest. Honestly, sad to not at least give a quarterly status update on the top 10 feature requests.

why not use the google drive to sync subscriptions and read podcasts?

Xavier, this product would be good enough to skip (further?) venture capital cycles if you were to prototype a synced version. It would position Podcast Addict as a prime candidate for partnering with a cloud service provider - google, amazon, microsoft - who could also bring a drop-in monetization model to the table. Your would own the synced podcast app space.

I would also love to be able to sync. In fact, I tried podcast republic just because it claims to be able to sync across multiple devices, but turns out it isn't supported on my tablet. Any update on status of this feature?

I am happy to pay a small fee even just for a one off transfer of data as I have a new phone and the constant downloading and realising I've already heard it is driving be nuts. It's bad enough when podcasts don't put recast in the title of recasted eps.

Any updates?
Thanks for your hard work :) -

I agree as well. Implementation of a cross-device sync feature would make an already excellent app into a great one. I, too, am hoping for news on this soon.
Thanks for all your hard work on the excellent design and implementation of Podcast Addict! It's so good that I never use iTunes or my iPod any more.

I agree with the rest, this is really the last thing from making this hands down the best podcast app out there. Any news on the progress of this feature?
And thank you thank you for all the work you've already done!
Yours gratefully
