Podcust lets parents turn a child’s question into a short, age-aware audio episode in any language. Choose age, language, length, and get a screen-free listen for the car, breakfast, or drawing time.
I love the idea of audio instead of yet another screen app. I would suggest adding a demo mode without registration or adding a video/screencast of the creation process to the main page. Right now, IMO, it creates unnecessary friction for potential users - they need to login to try. People nowadays are careful with sharing their data, even email address.
Multi-language support is not clear from Home Page as well. There's a block about it somewhere below - I personally had to use cmd+F to find what languages are supported, because I was confused to see examples in Hebrew and German at first. Maybe adding a flag icon to the card itself - would be a good signal, that multi-language support exists.
Another low-hanging fruit to me would be adding a listening without registration - if potential user could browse through the existing shared materials - it would open the gate for more listeners, not only creators. It's fun to create new episodes for your children, and maybe together with them, but not everyone has time/desire for it. For example, I would be interested to open all available episodes, filter them by language or subject and play them as a playlist while driving. Some features could be hidden only for registered users (bookmarking, stats, history). But free to play - would be nice for everybody.
Keep going, it definitely has potential and good luck!
