It looks great and is near perfect.
Pocket Casts is a simple and powerful podcatcher for Android. Designed from the ground up for Android 4+, it features a modern holo UI which keeps the app's feature set within reach. Cross device syncing, tablet support and native variable speed playback make Pocket Casts the best way to listen to podcasts on any platform.

Powerful smart playlists

Want a list of every unplayed, downloaded podcast? Right here. How about a list of video episodes that you haven’t downloaded yet? Easy.

Stunning User Interface

We've kept a close eye on the Android design guidelines while building the simplest and most powerful Pocket Casts interface yet. Simple, powerful, beautiful.

Syncing & Backup

Pocket Casts backs up your subscriptions, podcasts, playlists & progress with our server and your other android devices. You can now drop your phone in a toilet and not lose your podcasts. After syncing, setting up a new phone has never been easier.

Native Variable Speed Playback

All the way from 0.5x to 3.0x, no plugins to download, no fuss, just pure unadulterated speed.

Fast cloud based parsing

Pocket Casts is the only android podcatcher that does its podcast parsing in the cloud. When your need to see what's new, it checks one super quick server to ask hey what's new?.

Skip about easily

One tap of the screen and you can jump forward or back through your podcast episodes. Aye Aye, Skipper!

Videos to Audio

Pocket Casts lets you toggle video podcasts to audio (when Leo comes on), then back again (when someone more handsome is speaking)

Automatic Downloading

After adding a playlist, you have the option to set Pocket Casts to download new episodes automatically in the background.

Tablet support

We’ve targeted Nexus 7 and 10, and it looks great on others too.
