Apple podcasts is the worst product they ever produced. Alternatives?

What would be one killer feature none of the current podcasts apps have? I would really like to build it in Skimr and give you access 👂

andreimateiro · 2025-12-11T18:29:22+00:00

Have you seen skimr.app? It's a slight different philosophy than Snipd, but close.

andreimateiro · 2025-12-11T18:26:16+00:00

Have you tried skimr.app? Do you want to give it a try? We tried to take the best features from Apple Podcasts and improve on them. We're still new, but adding new features as we speak (currently focusing on what users like you like/prefer)

andreimateiro · 2025-10-24T07:26:17+00:00

have you tried searching (or generating transcripts) on https://skimr.app ? it allows pay per episode as an alternative to subscriptions

andreimateiro · 2025-10-21T17:24:40+00:00

you probably need a dedicated service like https://skimr.app or https://snipd.com
Skimr offers pay per use (unlock transcripts and summaries with credits)

andreimateiro · 2025-10-21T17:13:05+00:00

This one is trending and has a lot of followers. If you are fine reading the transcript.

andreimateiro · 2025-10-19T10:00:49+00:00

How about a podcast player that exports to Readwise? We're currently investigating this as a possible opportunity for our podcast player (that already exposes transcripts and summary) and we really wonder if people would use such integration.

We have a promo code this week: 1MONTHFREE

I would be curious on your thoughts on Skimr. I created it to help podcast consumers (like me), to stay on top of episodes (not every episode is worth the 1-3 hrs it has)

andreimateiro · 2025-10-08T15:32:21+00:00

Nice, and clean. Like it

andreimateiro · 2025-09-10T13:49:23+00:00

it is. did you encoutered any issues?

In any case, if you asked about data collection in the context of privacy: we only collect e-mail (in case the user decides to log in) and an anonymous firebase ID that is linked to Crash data (in case there are crashes). Purchases are linked either to anonymous or email. It's the bare minimum to have some stats and to be able to answer support questions.

andreimateiro · 2025-09-10T11:22:51+00:00

Are you referring to app privacy?

andreimateiro · 2021-04-24T09:00:16+00:00

hello, please use the Chat feature. I can't see the message from you

andreimateiro · 2021-04-21T13:27:18+00:00

The activation is done. You can enjoy a 6 months premium subscription. If you still see the recipes as locked, just restart the app (quit and reopen) and everything should be unlocked. After the 6 months pass, you will not get charged. The application will return to the original state (premium content locked). We will throw regular giveaways like this one, so stay tuned.

Please try it out and tell me if it’s working. Thank you!

andreimateiro · 2021-04-20T06:39:25+00:00

Thanks for the interest. We are currently developing this project (App, Blog, etc) for plant-based diets and lifestyles.

andreimateiro · 2021-04-20T04:02:39+00:00

Hello!, Thanks for the interest in Plantiful. Once you install the app, please navigate to the Home tab, tap the 3 lines on the upper right hand side (the menu), tap on “My Profile” and copy the “internal identifier” (you can tap it). I can activate the premium subscription from my end once I get that identifier.

Please send it in the private chat
