Pocket Casts

Powerful podcast manager for iOS & Android. New v.5 release.

It has an extensive library, great interface and did I mention, great interface? They had me at Dark theme. I've tried quite a few podcast apps for Android but Pocket Casts is, by far and away, the best looking one. I personally love that there's an option to always start episodes of specific podcasts at x minutes so that I can skip the ads.

Amazing. Synched web player (and OSX app via Github are nice too)

Also they make it so easy to share podcasts, episodes, or even the specific start time in an episode with friends!

Nichole Elizabeth DeMeréModerator at Product Hunt · Written
App designed to help you track a broad range of shows and pick out the episodes that appeal to you. To do this, they introduce a concept that is new to podcast apps: episode triage.

I used Overcast before but I felt like I was crawling under podcasts and Castro has one of the best interfaces for triage ever. Go to your inbox and easily send each episode to your playlist or the archive.

Spotify

Any song. One tap away.

Since I already use Spotify to stream music AND pay monthly for it, I found using its Podcast option easier than having another app. There are some podcasts that are not available, but it's not bad for me.

Otto Radio

Discover podcasts & news you love with the push of a button

#NotAGuruCMO, BRANDish Social Media Marketing · Written
Love the discoverability it provides of other shows and news related to what I already enjoy and have selected/favorited. The UX is efficient and appealing too. I was a big Stitcher user until about a year ago when I found Otto and switched over entirely, been happy ever since especially with the new features they've added since then.
