allow multiple playlists
I listen to different types of podcasts depending on what I am doing. I'd like to be able to separate them so I don't have to keep messing with the order of the list.
Podcast Addict v3.42 has just been released.
This new version finally adds support to multiple playlists.
In order to use this new feature, you can go into the Playlists screen and select the new ‘Custom’ tab.
Then you can select the category of your choice and listen to it.
Those default categories are provided by the podcast owner in their RSS feeds, but you can press on the toolbar ‘Category’ button and add/delete/customize them.
That way you can create playlists like News, Commute, Workout, Audiobooks, SFW, …
Each playlist can have its own sorting mode.
Please let me know what you think about this new feature
Thanks
=========
New version will add multiple playlist support.
In order to do so you will need to enable Continuous playback mode in the app Settings/Playlist screen
Then the playlist screen will have a 3rd tab which displays the podcasts categories.
You can then select the category of your choice to start listening to it.
You can edit/delete/add categories
The app will remember the sorting by category

What do you mean exactly? The playlist is available from the navigation menu.

Could also just have the playlist screen tabbed so it's not another GUI shortcut to remember.

Really hope that you create different playlists and not just ways to arrange one list. I teach fitness classes and would love to organize the music playlists based on the genre that I define.

Cool that you plan something similar. My intended use would be to group together different feeds for chill out, science, arts etc, so the option for custom lists would be awesome!

In the upcoming version you will be able to store the Playlist per podcast. That way you will be able to scroll the playlist to find episodes for a specific podcast and then play them.
I will later add a way to create playlist using custom settings -

Yes please! I like your app best other than the lack of this feature; been shopping around for a perfect app now that I switched to Android, and will stop my search if you add multiple playlists. Thank you!
