The official iOS podcast app
Apple Podcasts is an audio app that contains more than 750,000 shows that you can subscribe to and listen to. It features different genres that would surely fit your every mood and taste. Browsing is also made easy, as the shows are sorted into their respective categories! Apple Podcasts is a very good on-the-go entertainment source if you want to listen to something other than music.
Focus on podcasts
Unlike other audio and music streaming apps, Apple Podcasts focuses only on podcasts and you will not be able to find other media in its library. There are no videos, no movies, and no music in the app. You may think that there is a lack of multimedia content in Apple Podcasts but you see, it is actually really good that the app is not cluttered from having too many features. Podcast lovers can dive straight into their podcast library without much ceremony.
There are over 750,000 shows in around 20 million available channels. That means you will never run out of something to listen to. You can subscribe to your favorite shows and get notifications every time new episodes are released. The Listen Now feature also lets you check on all the latest episodes that you might have missed or put off for later as you listen to the other podcasts in the meantime. Apple Podcasts lets you enjoy the convenience of accessing your podcast library on all your synced Apple devices. To make things better, you are allowed to download episodes and listen to them offline, anywhere and anytime.
Looking for a specific podcast out of the millions of channels in Apple Podcasts is not an impossible thing to do. If you have a specific show in mind, you can save time from browsing the library and checking the titles one by one. Using the app’s search bar, just enter the name of the show or channel and it will show you what you are looking for. Easy, right?
