Hi Product Hunt! 😸 I just launched my new podcast player, TypeCast. This app solves a big problem for me – finding information in multi-hour podcast episodes after I finish listening. With TypeCast, I can just search within the audio of any episode, or search across multiple episodes to find exactly what I'm looking for. Features: - Transcribes any podcast episode. - Real time word highlighting as you listen. - Tap words in the transcript to skip to that point in the audio. - Search within transcripts to find information quickly. - Pinch to zoom in and out of the transcript. Text reflows automatically. - Adjustable playback speed from 0.5x to 4.0x. - Skip forward and backward in an episode. - Simple, intuitive design for iOS 14. I have plenty of ideas for more features. Shared medium-style highlights, episode summarization / keywords, and bookmarks are all things I'm considering. I'm curious to know – what would make TypeCast your go-to podcast app? Cheers! 💛

Hey, nice Product! I think you're solving a great problem. I'm curious how you think about the Airr podcast player, and how you're different from them since they seem to offer a similar value proposition. As for me, I'm using Overcast. To be honest, I'm not sure what I'd need in order to make another app my default. Maybe I'm not desperate enough? I've looked into Airr but didn't feel compelled making the jump despite some neat features. How are you creating the transcripts? I assume you're using a third party?

Great idea, this is highly relevant for many power users. Can't use it though, since I'm on Android. Please consider: Automatic translation of your transcription to other languages (e.g. integrate deepl.com) and add TTS. So anyone can hear podcasts in their native language.
