Podcast Republic for Android
been using this app for a while now. you guys can't seem to get it right. the stutter is back. the notifications are annoying, my episodes are never listened to apparently and now I get notification bubbles for playlists w no shows in them. just a mess of an app. cool new logo at least.
Excellent podcast and video podcast watching app. It did take me a little while to get used to the UI having switched from another app but since then it had done everything I need including reliable auto download and library maintenance and landscape mode video playback.
Great podcast app. Good interface, takes a little getting used to, but tons of options and features. Complaints: some podcasts show fewer episodes than I know they have (not sure whose fault that is). Also, syncing with gpodder seems flaky and often doesn't work, but I think that's not the app's fault because I sometimes can't access gpodder on desktop.
Since the latest upgrade this ap has become a disaster. In one day it chewed up 250 MB. It does not work properly when not on WIFI it does not download properly when it is. There is no easy way to select which podcasts to play. Stay away if you value your podcast experience.
the updates jan/feb 2017 made it unstable again. crashes about two or three times an hour. especially if trying to manage podcasts in playlist while listening. the new logo is new tho!
I've tried 4 other podcast applications and this is by far my favorite. It allows me to customize everything just how I want it. I sometimes have issues with syncing between devices but I think that has more to do with the service being used to perform that function than with this app.
The most recent two versions have had playback issues for me. Podcasts pausing and restarting at random, or else stopping, then cycling through all my other downloaded episodes for two seconds at a time. Deleted the app and reinstalled, but the problem has gradually come back over several days.
I like it. It keeps my subscriptions sorted well and Ican arrange my playlists the way I like. I get what I need and it gets rid of what I've listened to. I don't have to pay attention - just set & forget. It's what I want.
This is the best podcast app that I've found. There have been some minor issues, but there are consistent updates. I haven't seen an issue go unresolved for long.
Used to work. Paid for app. Now it's broke and won't download. Moving back to Stitcher.
I used to use iPodcast in my iPhone but since i lost it and i got myself a samsung divice, i can tell that it is the best podcast app. Very similar to iPodcasts. Keep like that.
Very capable podcast player. I wish the first time setup were a little easier but since I only had to do it once it wasn't that bad. The app does great synchronizing all my podcasts.
This app works great 99% of the time. Rebooting always fixes the hang up.
used this app for years. now I can't listen to a 30 minutes podcast without it pausing 5 to 6 times. you guys f*cked it up. Uninstalling.
Works well but the widget is finicky. Frequent updates are getting annoying, especially since the What's New window is in you face.
Brilliant little podcast app, easy to use and download/stream the pods I love. Plus they are always working on it and making it a little bit better with every update. Can't ask for much more than that.
My fav podcast app by far. Its so well layed out and functional, has everything inc foreign radio stations and allows for great personalised organisation. 5 stars
I like this app, my only complaint is that it crashes about once a day which causes a mild inconvenience.
I move the app to SD card but it always move back to internal memory whenever it update itself. Annoying . But still a nice app
I think having a bear for a pet would be expensive but i just gotta have one! :)
Simple to use if that's what you want, with a load of additional functionality if you want more. So perfect for everyone and a developer that cares about quality and the user experience. By far the best podcast app.
I gather CBC has backed down - dunno why.
If you're looking for an app that allows you to listen to the podcasts you love, this one worked well for me. Really good for a free app and tech support is awesome too
So far the best app for podcast I've used. I wishthe user interface could a little more intuitive but it is better than the rest!
I wish it would pause while my GPS gave directions like other similar apps, but I use it because I like the UI and the streaming is good quality
Excellent app to listen to all my podcasts, especially those I can primarily find only on iTunes or via direct download.
It's a solid app but asking me to rate it every time there is an update is a quick way to get me to hate it, so every time it asked me to rate it my review score drops one star.
Easy to use, five stars if I could create an account that would allow me to sync across multiple devices.
This as all the best podcasts as soon as they are released. Best podcast app out.
Super convenient, love it! I've been using it for about a year now and went ahead and got the ad free version.
Gets better with every upgrade, not always true of apps like this. Have used it for 4 years now.
Sorting issues with podcasts playing in order.
Won't work off mobile data
Solid podcasting app! Easy to manage downloads/streams and prevent things from consuming data.
Easy to use. Updated automatically. Has many of the podcasts I'm looking for and it's easy to connect to other I want to follow. Great app.
Love this app for managing all the podcasts I listen. Works perfectly.
Would score higher if it didn't harass me to rate the app every time I open it.
Interface works fairly well, and I love being able to easily categorize played/unplayed.
I use this app daily. Easy to use and navigate. The writer is constantly making improvements, and listens well to suggestions.

A terrific resource for finding and listening to podcasts! Easy to use and great functionality. Unfortunately I upgraded to ad-free version while my family payment method was disabled and was unable to share with my wife (no family toggle). In response to my issue above I received a prompt reply from the developer offering a code to remove ads from my wife's account. Excellent customer service! I continue to be impressed with the ease-of-use and functionality of the app. Recommended it to my brother and he is now using it (and will likely upgrade to the ad-free version) Upgrading my rating to 5*.
