This app is the best I’ve used. Does everything I want simply and quickly.

Great podcast app. I love the variable speed playback and auto smart speed which speeds up gaps.
The app rewrite kind of broke the app for a while, but thankfully it’s now better than the old version.
The Apple Watch support is now finally better too with my Ultra 2 watch actually background Dow loading most of the time. It’s still not perfect, but way better than it was.
The f’n GOAT

I don’t normally do reviews, but this app is the gold standard in my book. He’s always innovating and taking heat when stuff is out of his own control. Plus dudes a Phish fan…gotta jibbo
Bad updates

App gets worse with eachupdate. The search is awful. I want to click on a searched episode and be taken to it in the episode list. Why get rid of features
Easy to use

Easy to use with nice playback controls. I prefer this app to all other podcast apps.
Searching is *terrible*

The UI makes it so easy to quickly get move around in my library. However searching is *terrible*! Is it worth searching in a different app and then playing in Overcast? Yeesh, I don't know. Ex: I like coffee and searched "James Hoffman," a huge coffee figure. Overcast returned a small handful of almost entirely irrelevant results, while the Apple app returned a long list of coffee podcast episodes.
New UI made everything disappear

New UI seems to have deleted all my podcasts. How can i get to a list of all the downloaded episodes for a specific podcast?
The app thinks i have no saved podcasts despite having half my phone storage filled with them.
Streaming - hooray!

Yay for bringing back streaming.
An almost elegant app

I’ve used overcast for years and loved it, but I’ve switched back to the default podcast player unfortunately. overcast took all of the speed up and speed down audio settings, and buried them under too many clicks. It’s just way easier to have those on the home screen. hopefully this gets fixed and I can come back soon.
Longtime favorite

So glad I found this app years ago, probably when an update came to my phone’s standard app and made everything nonsensical. Love all the options and ease of use, thoughtful updates and improvements, ease of use. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.
