Comments on AntennaPod - Podcast Player for Android

★★★★★ Scott Black · Aug 22, 2026

Best open source podcast app. Love it. Easy to use and has great features.

★★★★★ Ian Hymers · Aug 22, 2026

Works very well and easy to use and navigate. Hasn't missed any episodes of the podcasts I listen to unlike other apps I've tried.

★★☆☆☆ Ken Holmes · Aug 6, 2026

After years of dealing with the skip issue, finally gave up and uninstalled. I wish they would have cared enough to fix it because it is an otherwise great app

★★☆☆☆ Tadas Simokaitis · Aug 7, 2026

Casting is getting more and more broken. Frustrating asf.

★★☆☆☆ Dan Laskowski · Aug 22, 2026

Worked well for a few weeks. Then kept stopping during playback. Only played a few minutes at a time.

★★☆☆☆ Morgan Lockwood · Aug 17, 2026

(update: Aug '26 - cannot play podcast episodes without getting a "source error" message.) original review-the best podcast app. Simple, clean UI with every feature I could want or need. Literally perfect.

★☆☆☆☆ Féargus McDermott · Aug 21, 2026

Got a bug where it suddenly started eating through gigs of data overnight had never done this before. I only have 6 podcasts so a serious problem if this apl was draining gigs every night cost me money in the end so wouldn't touch again and that's why one star
