Chat and More
I'm still sitting here with DoggCatcher. Not exactly a pretty app, feels like an app from more than 10 years ago, as it hasn't really changed since then.
But it does what I want it to, with some minor hiccups one in a blue moon. Hasn't frustrated me to the point where I feel like switching.
And while it's not pretty, it does work.
Podcast Addict (the free, ad-supported version) is all that I use for my podcasts. If you're really into customisation, then try Podcast Republic.
I was paying the $10 but recently stopped it because i never use the app, not sure i'll get premium again with such an increase, even if i do get back into it. maybe if i really start using it a lot
BeyondPod on android
Man, that beyond pod UI feels right out If jelly bean or kit Kat.
Beyond Pod hasn't been updated since January 2021. It used to be the best podcast app by far, but is now quite buggy and broken on newer versions of Android.
AntennaPod is what I use now. A fantastic app that is free, no ads, and completely open source.
I'll give antennapod a try. Thanks!
Any recs for a podcast app that has wearOS support??
Or a player than syncs to a website or desktop app? I mainly listen on my phone, but would like to be able to listen on my pc from time to time and would like the PC and android app to stay in sync.
I suspect these are Pocket Cast niches. If you're already subscribed, your pricing should stay the same.
I use the free app right now
I've never paid for this app.. but that's a crazy increase!
Podurama is amazing! I was a long time pocketcasts user and have switched. Wonβt ever look back!!
