Podcasts freeze all the time, downloads have never once worked, annoying to navigate. Great podcasts, poor app. Edit: frequently switches to other episodes while another is playing or restarts the current podcast. FINAL EDIT, DOWNLOAD POCKET CAST, DITCH THIS GARBAGE

X70%
by X####:

The content on the app is good but the app itself is poor. It spontaneously stops buffering halfway through podcasts and either skips to the next or restarts. It also takes a fair amount more time to buffer than its competitors such as SoundCloud.

R70%
by R####:

Please create an option to sort and play order "From old to new". I started to listen podcast from the very first episod. And now it is more then 400 episodes in it. The scrolling down becomes a nightmare! Please grabb some functions and options from podcast republic. There are plenty of useful in there. The other problem is with RSS. It is broken and a lots of episodes are missing in it. In the APP they are OK.

When it works it's great. However it constantly freezes when listening and using any other app i.e. browsing the Internet on Chrome or Facebook. Annoying!

R70%

App freezes all the time. Won't load. Tons of great podcasts. Too bad the app is awful

R70%
by R####:

Terrible, used to work fine some of the time, now podcasts get cut off most of the time. Tried reinstalling, changing settings etc, if it wasn't for No Such Thing As A Fish I wouldn't bother with this frustrating app.

R70%
by R####:

Too many freezes. Sometimes it just skips to the next podcast on its own. Pauses randomly. If they could fix that it would be great.

L70%
by L####:

Keeps cutting out, seems to need a connection to load up playlist which seems to make downloading a podcast pointless

B70%
by B####:

Nice application, only a few glitches.

R70%
by R####:

Podcasts drop off midstream. It's such a slow load up.

Constant buffering issues. Downloading no help at all. Great podcasts when it works.

App used to work great, now freezes constantly. Please fix!

It always skips my podcasts to the next episode for no reason

Love this app. Has some of my favorite podcasts before anyplace else.

O70%

Works well and I can find my daily podcasts easily.

Y70%

Love it

P70%
by P####:

I use this app to listen to No Such Thing As A Fish. During nearly every episode it cuts out, stops, or skips to an entirely different track. Sometimes it makes it to the last ten minutes, whilst others it barely lasts four seconds. At first I thought it was my internet but we have recently got better coverage and everything else runs fine. Please fix this!

F70%
by F####:

App was updated and it seems to work way better now. Doesn't stop too frequently when streaming and I almost never have problems anymore when I download a podcast. Thanks for the update

Enjoying the app

Its great.

R70%
by R####:

A favorite Podcaster uses this app so his stuff drops immediately here which is why I started to switch everything over. However the majority of time I'm listening is while driving and this app doesn't work well with my driving app, Android auto. It was hard to navigate, and can u even tell which episodes you've listened too?? The interface just doesn't seem listener friendly.

O70%
by O####:

The skipping and flat out pausing (and then skipping to another episode of a podcast) is absolutely intolerable. I wish my favorite podcasts didn't use this garbage host because it's impossible to enjoy anything on the audioBoom app.

Y70%
by Y####:

Podcasts cut out in the middle, it takes forever to load channels and search results.

R70%
by R####:

Able to learn it pretty quickly. Also, only app that drops my favorite Truth and Justice episodes on time. Is there a way for the most current episode to play automatically?

R70%
by R####:

no more skipping. now it just stops completely and I have to restart the app. :/

R70%
by R####:

Constantly cuts podcasts I'm listening to back a few minutes. Can become very annoying whilst listening to multiple podcasts. Will happen 4-5 times in a 30 minute episode.

R70%
by R####:

love the idea but it doesn't work for very long and it's just too frustrating to bother with.

R70%
by R####:

Everytime I try to log in there is an unknown error I even tried to make a new account and I get the same thing

G70%
by G####:

I haven't really had this app but they seem to fix bugs a lot which is surprising for an app.

please add external SD support.

R70%
by R####:

Since last app update, it pulls a tremendous amount of power from my phone, which it never did before, 39% over my 8 hour work day. I used to be able to listen for my 4 hours of podcast and still be at 85% after. Lately after 4 hours I'm down nearly 40% And I'm not doing anything different or added apps since. So it's this app.

R70%
by R####:

Takes forever to buffer anything, randomly skips backwards during playback, stops for no reason in the middle of playback and won't restart until I close the app and open it again. The only reason I continue to use this app is because it's host to one of my favourite podcasts, otherwise I wouldn't bother with it.

Q70%
by Q####:

This app is junk got it to listen to shannon burke. When you download the show and listen it skips, stops, rewinds can even listen to it don't get this you will be disappointed.

R70%
by R####:

I wish I could preview episodes without them auto playing. Sometimes I am listening to an episode of a show, but want to find my next listen. If I click on a new PC then the episode plays rather than letting me read a description. This app plays backwards from the uploads. The episodes load bottom up, but plat top down. So you can't start in the middle and catch up since the app will play episode 3 after 4 rather than playing episode 5.

R70%
by R####:

App fails at the basic function of playing podcasts. Playback skips around for no apparent reason.

P70%
by P####:

You're a bad podcaster if you make this service the only way to access your content.

R70%
by R####:

Update as of the 23rd made things worse. "Bugs" were not fixed, randomly stops very frequently now and takes ages for it to reload a podcast that you were listening to originally. Load times are noticeably slower than previously.... Please remind me what "improvements" were made???

Bahut achha hey bbc urdu aur bbc hindi khabren ba asaani sunte hy agr is me voa urdu bi hota to buhat achha hota!!!

R70%
by R####:

Stopped halfway through playing and wouldn't resume. Even once I clicked on another audio and back to the same one. Also, was constantly rewinding itself and playing 10 second parts twice. Really annoying

R70%
by R####:

On my Galaxy S6 the app constantly skips, usually backwards by about 30sec by also other random jumps. Please, please fix this! Presentation of content and controls otherwise seem good, but needs to have stable playback or it's unusable.
