Minimal, lightweight. This is one of the best podcast apps I've ever used. However I would love the option to pause the active downloads. Also lock screen controls is a must for the player, please add this feature.

Love the elegant simplicity. Not over done. Good interpretation of the material design ethos. Needs ompl import because many people have large podcast lists, and some unusual podcasts for various reasons don't show up in iTunes searches. Need to be able to paste RSS address for podcasts too. When these are added, you definitely get 5 stars. Great start guys.
