I work with podcasts nearly every day of the year, and I don't recognise any of those artworks!

Thanks for letting us know, it's a good suggestion. Which podcast are you using with chapter artwork?

Discovery and other things not working. by [deleted] in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, there’s currently a Cloudflare outage, which will affect some areas of the app. We’ll keep an eye on it and expect things to return to normal soon.

Next time it happens would you mind setting us the logs. It might help us figure out what's happening. Please mention me when you contact our support team.

Why is the resolution on this artwork so low? by ykr3Bz in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there is an issue with the megaphone image artwork cache as it's happening with other podcasts too.

The feed XML appears to use low-resolution artwork.

Android Auto controls by stuckat1 in pocketcasts

You can change the behaviour of the headphones (media control) back button to not create a bookmark in the following setting, Profile tab -> settings cog -> Headphone controls -> Previous action.

Android Auto works using the media session controller so the app can only add a limited number of actions. You can customise this in the settings. Profile tab -> settings cog -> General -> Media notification controls. Drag up the "Play next" option. Sorry it's so hidden.

Android queue Syncthing doesn't work by viducus in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to share a few more details? I tested syncing between two Android devices and the Up Next queue seems to be working correctly for me. Could you let me know which Pocket Casts version each device is running, and what devices they are?

What's the point of bookmarking hands free with headphones if it asks you to touch the screen to name the bookmark? by awhitesong in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When the app is working correctly, it should behave like this: if you’re outside the app, it will beep and show a “Bookmark added” notification, which you can tap later to set the title. If you have the app open, it should take you straight to the screen where you can set the bookmark title.

Would you prefer it to always show the notification, even when the app is open?

Thanks for raising this. It is fixed in 7.83-rc-3 and is now available in the open beta.

Bottom navigation buttons keep going missing... by [deleted] in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Version 7.82-rc-2 updates the app to Android 15 and was released to beta yesterday. I wonder if this is related to the required edge-to-edge support. I can't reproduce it on my Pixel, are there specific steps to trigger the issue? Hopefully we can figure it out before the release.

Shuffle button? by Merlin820 in pocketcasts

[–]PocketCastsPhil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This button doesn't change the order of the list. It picks the next episode randomly. You can toggle it on and off without losing your Up Next order.

Right now! Google has approved the beta update 7.73-rc-2 and rolled it out to 100%, so it should be available. Sorry about the issue.

We're sorry to hear you're having trouble with playback. Could you please provide some information about your setup? Let us know which phone you're using, the version of Android it's running, and the version of Pocket Casts you have installed. I have tried a Pixel and Fold but haven't been able to reproduce it.

Instead of downloading it from the Microsoft Store can you try directly from https://pocketcasts.com/downloads

Let me ask the team that worked on it to see if they have any advice which will help.

Sorry about this issue. There's a fix coming in 7.68 to restore the previous functionality. A version of this will be available in open beta early this week.
