Comments on Pocket Casts - Podcast App for Android

★★★★★ Gregg Sciabica · Jun 4, 2026

I rarely leave reviews, but I am going out of my way to review the Pocket Casts app. Finally, a podcast app that got it right! I have tried them all, and they all have various annoying problems or lack vital features, but not this one! They included every possible feature that matters, while finding a way to keep interface clean, efficient and easy to use. They have set the standard for how all apps should be designed. Pocket Casts is the most deserving app of a 5-star review ever!

★★★★★ Lea Moonlight · Jun 12, 2026

The best podcast player I've found! I've used pocket casts for over 9 years and it's stilly favorite. I am also able to upload audio files to listen to in the app. I love it!

★★★★★ Casey Robinson · Jun 12, 2026

My favorite app for podcasts on android 😍 works with my android auto and actually has the early episodes of my Favorite podcast Mysterious Brews!

★☆☆☆☆ Slime Machine · May 26, 2026

Frequently will not update podcasts when new episodes drop, I use this app for only two podcasts and have had to re-subscribe to them both multiple times. Some episodes it seems completely unable to pull, despite being available elsewhere. I promise there are better options than this app.

★★☆☆☆ Kate Sears · May 13, 2026

Loved this app for a long time, but lately it's so glitchy it isn't worth the hassle. Every time I try to listen to an episode that's more than a few weeks old, it jumps to random spots within the podcast and skips massive sections, and I'm not able to go back and replay the missed sections. Super disappointing, and time for a new app.

★☆☆☆☆ Thiago · May 11, 2026

I paid the premium for AI transcripts. It worked for a few weeks, but the transcripts are no longer being generated.
