What did you switch to? I need a decent podcast app... I currently use Google podcasts. I used to use castbox, but the ads became unbearable.
Not who you asked, but I use podbean and have recently started using antennapod. Both are really good, but antennapod is open source from what I understand, and I've been able to find more podcasts on it. Only gripes with it are that you can't rate the podcasts on it, and you can't set it play all episodes of a certain podcast automatically. You have to add them to a queue manually and play from the queue. Other than that it's absolutely fantastic.
Pocket casts is really good, but their premium pricing has really climbed recently (device syncing, better organization options, and desktop/web clients). AntennaPod is almost as good and FOSS if that matters to you.
Thanks looks like pocket casts has a lot of support. I'll give it a go.
Pocket Casts is great - I've used it (on the free tier) for years. If I didn't use this I would jump to Podcast Addict

I got lucky and grand-fathered in, I love pocketcasts but I am hesitate to recommend it anyone now due to its price.
I've been using Pocket Casts for years. It's pretty solid. Honestly can't remember if I paid for it or not, but I don't see ads and I don't have the recurring membership option.
+1 for Pocket Casts
The apps are now free and open source. You only need to pay (monthly) if you want the web app and account sync.
It's great as the free version, but if you were one of the lucky few that supported the desktop app years ago, the lifetime license is chefs kiss
Yep, been using it for 7 years now, couldn't be happier.
A fellow lifetimer! All I wanted was to use the windows desktop app version to play podcasts. Who would have thought it would lead to this while everyone else just lived in the phone?
It's a great app. Simple and clean. I left for podcast republic for a while because it supported groupings, but the PC added folders and well, they pulled me back in!
+1 for Pocket Casts. I've only ever had problems with Pocket Cast in the last few weeks. Luckily they released an update a few days ago that fixed the issues.
I switched to AntennaPod and am satisfied so far. No risk of getting stuck on a proprietary platform.
I landed on Podcast Addict. It was similar enough for me to switch pretty easily.
