Add Advanced search options. Specifically an exact phrase option
I've found search results inconsistent even when sorting according to relevance. Some of the episodes that matched my search exactly were lower down than those results that didn't match exactly
Amazing app!
3 votesThe app relies on the Apple search engine for this. Sorry but there’s nothing I can do to change their episode search engine behavior

Podcast searches should match partial words, for example "freak" should find "freakonomics"
When searching for a podcast to subscribe to, "freak" should find "freakonomics". The first use case is so save time, the second use case is that a title like this (with a made up word) might be hard for some people to spell.
1 voteFreakonomics will match here BUT, it will have a lower scrore than the other podcasts using the word freak, therefore it might be push up so low in the list that it won't be visible. You can switch to the Apple podcast search engine in the app if you prefer a different behavior

virtual audiobook: cover being overwritten
virtual audiobook: cover being overwritten with the folder cover when (marked) finished, so different files in a folder end up with the same cover; option to disable cover change when audiobook finished?
1 voteBy default the app deletes episode custom artwork when the episode is marked as played. You can disable this behavior in Settings/Automatic cleanup

Quick Persistent Chapter mute
When you hold a chapters mute icon it adds or removes it from the filter list for that podcast. A color change to indicate one time vs persistent mute would also be nice.
Thank you for your wonderful work.

Option to hide repeat episodes from view
Adding a filter to hide from view "re-runs" or repeat episodes similar to how you can hide fully listened to podcasts from the home screen. Many podcasts repeat episodes to meet their schedule but if you're a regular listener, or just want an easier way to see the universe of episode without the clutter, it's helpful to weed out the repeats.

Option to prevent download of repeat episodes if you've selected auto download of episodes
I do not believe there is an option to prevent the download of "re-runs" or repeat episodes when you have auto download selected for a podcast. Many podcasts repeat episodes to meet their schedule. I recognize that the repeated episodes may not match up perfectly with the original but an imperfect filter would be better than none.
1 voteYou can filter episodes based on some keywords in their title. By doing so they won’t be displayed in the app, however without this the app cannot know if an episode has already been published or not

Make it possible to remove the recent episode from every screen
Good god, man. How do I remove the super-annoying, attention stealing, animated, scrolling most recent episode that I am completely done with, from the bottom of every screen in the whole app?!
3 votesAre you referring to the player banner? If so, this shows you the current episode and allows you to control the playback from any screen. Feel free to send me an email if you have a question (Settings/Feedback)

Offer Ad Free Version for Patrons on Patreon
I'm trying to move off of Google products as much as possible, and would love it if Podcast Addict was available ad-free for Patrons on Patreon.
3 votesSorry but this isn’t possible. The Play Store and the Google Play Services are mandatory to handle purchases / licenses.
Sorry about that -
Episode order should follow download order
Some podcasts must be listened to in publication order (E.g. "History of the English Language). Most others, you can hear the latest first. While PA has a feature to download in either order, the sort order for episodes is always the same across podcasts.
This is exacerbated on Android Auto when, using the default sort order, I'm scrolling scrolling scrolling in the freeway trying to get to episode 15 of 150 in the History podcast. (but I don't want to switch the default sort order, which is great for most of my other podcasts).
Simply having display order and download…
3 votesPlayback order is controlled in the playlist screen. You can either order episodes manually or select the order of your choice. This will apply when you listen with your phone or through Android Auto. Feel free to send me an email if you have a question (Settings/Feedback)

create folder for episodes marked as played to unclutter Recent Episodes folder
If I have a couple of dozens of new episodes I may not necessarily want to play all of thenm. As I mark them "played", they still remain in Recent Episodes creating clutter over time. If you move the "Marked as Played" episodes to a dedicated folder, e.g., " Episodes Marked as Played" that'll make Recent Episodes folder more neat focused and friendly.
1 voteYou can press on the toolbar ‘eye’ button to hide played content

Not all podcasts are sequential. I would like the ability to shuffle episodes in selected podcasts so I can listen to a random episode among those that are not sequential.

Notes for podcasts
Would be a nice feature to be able to keep a note as to how the story left off if time between episodes is too long and you don't need to re listen to episodes again.
1 voteYou can already do this by using the episode bookmark feature to set notes associated to a time code in the episode, Feel free to contact me if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)

Add No Phony Podcast Network to your list of networks
No Phony Podcast Network is an independent group of podcasts that provide a broad range of shows. We support each other through technical help and cross promotion. We would like recognition on Podcast Addict as a network. nophonynetwork.com
42 votesUnfortunately the podcasts from this network are not using a similar name in the author field and there’s no way to automatically identify those podcasts are being part of this network.

SD Card. Automatic cleanup and episode deletion
Add the ability to manually delete episodes and automatic cleanup when storing files, particularly virtual podcasts, on a memory card outside of the app's folder. Apparently, this requires asking for permission to write to the memory card, like third-party file managers or other apps that allow you to create/delete files do, using Android Storage Access Framework.
1 voteSorry but that’s not possible on the SD card as the app only has permission to write into its own SD card folder

Dernier écouté
Dans la liste tous les podcasts, pouvoir trier par «derniers podcasts écoutés».
Parce que des fois, ça reste allumé dans mon sac et je loupe des podcasts, seulement, j'en écoute tellement que pour retrouver ceux qui viennent juste de passer à la trappe, c'est compliqué.
J'espère avoir été claire. Merci pour tout ce que vous faites.
Bien à vous1 voteTu peux aller dans Parametres/Menu de navigation et ajouter l’entree “Historique ecoute”. Tu pourras ensuite voir la liste des episodes ecoutes depuis le menu de navigation

Add a rerun tag, similar to the trailer tag
Would love to filter out reruns of older episodes.
1 voteSorry but this is not possible for now. There’s a standard in the RSS feeds that allows podcasters to set a flag for trailers. There’s, unfortunately, nothing for rerun. So, first a standard needs to be created then it needs to be adopted.
But most podcasters won’t want to adopt this because they want listeners to listen to the reruns, not to skip them ;) -
Have a short "rewind/ back" option
Have a 10 sec back button to replay just a short segment. The fast back button or slider is too haphazard.
1 voteYou can use the skip automatic rewind for this. However I don’t understand what the problem is with the rewind button. It just skips -15s. Please send me an email with more details so I can understand what the issue is (Setting/Feedback)
