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)

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)

Shuffle button for selected podcasts and episodes
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 rules to download or not episodes
In the feed podcast of the RMC radio for exemple there is the full emission during 3 hours more 1 episode for the first hour and this for the second hour and this for the third and the chronique of X etc..
It would be great to have rules like (do not)/download episode only if longer/shorter Than X minutes
Download only if bigger than X Mo.3 votesPlease go into the podcats Custom settings screen and then use the filter feature. You can exclude podcasts based on keywords, size,m duration, … Feel free to send me an email if you have a question (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. The only way I can add a new network is if I can set rules to automatically identify podcasts as 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

Include Fable and Folly in your Network Listing

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)

Delete episode but leave unplayed or unread
I have autodownload (on wifi) enabled, but often I want to delete a download, but leave the episode unplayed to go back to later. Right now, when I delete the episode, it then marks it as played, which is what I would want the default to be on the playlist. An option in the long press to leave unread at the same time would be useful. This would be when I am on the individual podcast's episode list page
3 votesPlease disable Settings/Download/Mark as played when deleted to change this behavior

Keep episode image when podcast has been watched
Maybe I missed a flag, but...
Whenever a podcast episode is finished/watched, the podcast image gets replaced by the generic podcast image, with the "check". Would like to keep the individual episode's image, but with the "check".
1 voteYou can disable this behavior in the app settings/Automatic cleanup sscreen

Allow "refresh metadata" for virtual podcasts
When you have a podcast (in this case a virtual podcast), add option to refresh the metadata. This is not just "looking for new episodes", but "update title", etc. When I click "refresh", it simply looks for new episodes, but does not display any changed/corrected "titles".
NOTE: Would like to KEEP the watched status.
1 voteYou can select multiple episodes (or all of them) and use the Refresh from RSS feed option for this. The app will refresh the information based on the current file metadata. Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)

Continuous playback - avoiding playing episodes of one podcast one after another
I love the Continuous playback function. I use it with priorities - if a new eposide of podcast that I like appears, it goes higher on a virtual list.
But sometimes, if I start listening after longer break and I have many episodes to listen, it makes me listen all episodes of podcast with higer priority before episodes of other podcasts. I don't like to listen many episodes of one podcast one after another.
I'll give you an example:
podcast A - priority 40 - 2 episodes to listen
podcast B - priority 30 - 2 episodes to listen
podcast…3 votesYou can enable Alternate podcasts in the playlist sorting popup so the app can mix the podcasts having the same priority. Feel free to send me an email if you have any questions (Settings/Feedback)

Changed the Sort option "reverse" to only reverse the podcast you are in, not all podcasts.
As title states. When you reverse the Sort of a podcast by publish date etc it reverses every podcast.
1 voteBy default, the podcast sorting mode is applied to every podcast. If you want every screen to use its own sorting mode please go into Settings/Display/Podcast and enable Custom sorting mode

Podcast cover in widget and playlist
Hi,

Manage podcasts that are loaded directly from a PC.
I have many podcasts that I have downloaded to my PC. They are not listed on iTunes, RSS, etc. I can download them to my phone and they end up in the Downloads file. I can use Podcast Addict to play them individually. But it would be nice to be able to use PA to organize them into a playlist. Thanks.
1 voteYou can create virtual podcast in the app to handle the content of a folder as a podcast. Then you can play all those files in the playlist of your choice. Feel free to send me an email if you have a question (Settings/Feedback)

Mark as played if time remaining is less than 1 min
Add an option in the settings so that a podcast is automatically marked as played (and therefore deleted if one wishes to) if the time remaining is less than X (such as 30 seconds, 1 minute...).
15 votesYou can use the skip oiutro feature for this. It can be set as a global setting or per podcast. Feel free to contact me if you have any question (Settings/Feedback)
