Spent a solid hour trying apps to switch to. Found podcast republic which does everything I want with tons of customisation and a one time payment to ditch the ads. Love it.

I've been using PocketCasts for years but I've been thinking about jumping ship. I'm going to give republic a shot. Thanks

I'm grandfathered in with lifetime premium on PocketCasts which makes it difficult to consider jumping ship.

I didn't even know they have a subscription now, bought the app with reward points probably 5+ years ago

Try Podcast Republic and Podcast Addict, both are awesome.

PA is more for power users.

PR is more for regular users.

Tried both and settled with AntennaPod when there were rumours of Google Podcasts shutting down a few months ago.

I now value more export/import features. I also enjoyed AntennaPod's queue options more.

Antennapod rocks as well.

I wasn't able to settle with it for some minor reason I can't recall, but it was a great app.

Been using Podcast Republic forever now. (~7 years)

The developer did so much during the time. It allows you to do so much.

Might try it, does it have skip silence, per cast playback speeds and configurable start and ending skips?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, I don't use all of those features so I had a quick look and yes it has all of those.

Thanks for checking that man you're the best. I'll definitely get some podcasts transferred over and try it out after work tonight
