"connection failure..." when start playing without internet connection
Hello, I start playing podcast at home, where my phone is connected to wifi. Then after some time I pause the podcast and after pause I can't resume it (when there is no wifi connection). Got error "connection failure...". Is this a bug?
Please don’t use this page to report an issue. It’s dedicated to new feature request.
Use the bug report form instead (Settings/Feedback/Report a bug) or press the Contact support button on this website.
Regarding the issue, this is normal. If you’re streaming an episode it cannot be played offline.
You need to download the episode first or allow streaming over data (Settings/Network)

@ken
The episodes are not downloaded otherwise the app would have played the local file. Please send me an email so I can gather more detail and then help you (Settings/Feedback)
Thanks -

It bugs me that this is default behaviour. Here's what I did:
- accessed podcasts - app tells me they are downloaded
- went for run, off network
- tried to listen
- connection failure
Expected functionality: Download podcast, go offline, listen to podcast. Easy, but not with this app. -

Rude, Xavier. I'm having a similar issue and this has been useful.
