HT5295 How to use the Podcast App

I want to only see the episode of the podcast I haven't seen yet and not see the older episodes, is that possible?
I want to be able to control wether the episodes continue playing or play and stop.

  • Can I use the Podcast app like the older iOS 6 Music Player?

    I've updated to iOS 7 and iTunes 11.1 and found that things seem drastically different.
    How i used to do podcasts:
    Subscribe to a podcast in iTunes on my Mac
    Sync to iPhone using a cable
    What used to happen:
    Podcasts that were selected to sync did if there were unplayed episodes
    The Music player would list only those podcasts where there were unplayed episodes
    Now things have changed.  I immediately was told that none of my podcasts were playable without the Podcast app.  I downloaded it and installed it.
    What is happening now:
    Still subscribing to a podcast in iTunes on my Mac
    Sync to iPhone using a cable
    Podcasts showing unplayed in iTunes on my Mac = 46
    Podcasts showing unplayed in the Podcast app = 57 - the difference appears to be that the podcast app is showing non-downloaded podcasts
    Podcast app showing all podcasts whether or not there are any to play.  The list includes podcasts that are not supposed to sync to my phone.
    The Podcast listing appears to be in a random order (actual list shown)-
    Apple Keynotes (no episodes)
    This week in Photo (8 episodes)
    Jake and Amir (no episodes)
    Podcast Beyond (no episodes)
    Accidental Tech Podcast (no episodes)
    Vector (1 episode)
    Podcasts with no new episodes now show a new episode though it looks like the episode is not downloaded
    I'm not sure why what is being shown in iTunes is not being shown in the Podcast app.
    Is there anyway to get the old behavior using the Podcast app?

    Additional information.   Can this be right?
    I spoke to Apple support who said that the settings for podcast syncing in iTunes are no longer being used since Apple moved to their Podcast app. 
    This may explain why I see all 45 podcasts on my iphone when I only have 15 of them set to sync.
    She also said that I would need to manually sync listened/unlistened podcasts between my Mac and my mobile devices since podcasts were no longer being synced from iTunes.
    Can anyone verify?

  • Can Apple not force people to use the podcast app if they dont want to?!

    Can Apple please NOT force people to use the podcast app if they dont want to?
    It is a horrific app.
    It uses data to play the podcasts which, once downloaded should not reqiure wifi to play!
    Fix it, otherwise stop forcing us to use it and allow us a choice!

    They do. There's lots of podcasting apps in the store, and you can erase the podcasts app and go back to the old way of playing them with the music app. Biggest downside is that you can't download podcasts on the phone without the podcasts app, so either do it on your computer or download the app, get the podcasts and erase the app. There's a few topics on here on how to do this. Search is your friend.

  • Why can't I use the Podcast app with the new update?

  • HT5295 Is there any way to not use the Podcast App and still listen to podcasts? This app is a substantial downgrade to listening through the music player.

    The Podcast App is terrible. It can't seem to keep track to what has or has not been listened to, it randomly restarts after pauses. I never had to use the App until this last upgrade and now I'm forced to. I would like to go back to listening to podcasts through the music player. Is that possible?

  • Why do i have to use the podcast app in iOS6 since it doesn't work correctly

    I upgraded to iOS 6 and now you cant download podcasts through the itunes app... Now you have to download the podcast app and use that instead, but that wont work correctly for me... keeps hanging and not downloading the actual podcast. Does anyone know a way to get podcasts in iOS 6 without using this app?

    Separating out a podcast app is a step backward. From a marketing perspective, podcasts are seen as something independent from music and television. But from a functionality POV, it just makes it harder to manage your audio on your iPhone.
    Consumer Technology's objective has always been to make one device do more things, i.e. combine a phone into a music player. This step is akin to taking the ability to text and spinning it off onto a gadget you attach to your key-ring.
    It's still there, but annoying to dig out when you want to use it.

  • TS1702 I know have to use the podcast app to listen to my podcast. And if course I have a issue and the app does not work correctly. I can not stream my podcast and have my phone locked, I have to listen to my podcast with my phone unlocked. Please help

  • HT4972 I cannot update my Ipod to version 7 to be able to use the podcast app any longer.  This is very irritting.  This was oe of the biggest reasons I purchased my Itouch to begin with was to use the podcast app.  Now wnat?

    I have an Itouch and was very pleased with it.  No problems with it.  I recently updated it, but it will not let me update to version 7.  Now I can no longer get access to the podcast apps.  This was the primary reason I purchased my I touch to begin with.  Now what?  Don't tell me I have put purchase a new Itouch just to be able to continue to listen to podcasts.  Are you kidding me? 

    I suspect you have a 4G iPod. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB
    To get the version copatible with the 4G:
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • HT5295 Can I send Podcasts to Bluetooth using the Podcasts app?

    Just what it says above - not clear in the documentation, and I have not had the chance to try it in my car.

    Yes if the car supports the A2DP bluetooth streaming profile.

  • How can I open the podcast app?

    Did anyone know, how to open the podcast app? If I click on a podcast link in a Mail, I can say I will open with the podcast. Its possible to subscribe the podcast, but I can’t open it again.
    I use Android 4.4.2
    Thanks Andy

    I agree with Tugasintra entirely. To hide the Podcast app inside the Movies app is very strange at best. I too lost hours trying to find the podcasts that I had previously subscribed to.  Before I found this discussion, which is not yet well indexed by Google, the only way I could access the Podcast app was via the notifications it generated!
    Does anyone know how to create a shortcut to the Podcast app?

  • How do I disable explicit podcasts in the podcasts app?

    I installed iOS 6 on my iPhone and now I have to use the Podcasts app instead of iTunes to listen to podcasts.  I can't figure out how to block/restrict explicit podcasts with this app (I could do it with iTunes easily enough).  Anyone know if this is possible?

    Please leave feedback about this problem for apple in the following link. the more feedback they get the more likely they will fix it.

  • How do I get the Podcast app to keep playing even after a longer break?

    So I´m using the Podcast app in order to be able to stream content without having to use Itunes. So far so good. Now, If I pause the podcast I´m listening to, the track information will stay accessible via clicking the screen or double-clicking the home button to access the Iphone Controls/Multitasking bar. For a while, that is.
    If I stay away from the Iphone for a longer period of time, the memory of the track being played mysteriously vanishes, If I try to press "play" as described above the currently listed song in Itunes will instead start playing. So what I then have to do is access the Podcast App again and hope that I can find the episode I was listening to again (which of course I don´t keep track of - no pun intended).
    I´ve tried changing the order of the app icons in the Controls bar, but they seem not to want to be moved.
    Any tips? True continous play would be an awesome feature as I listen A LOT to podcasts.
    Btw this forum is awesome. Just saw somebody replying A4-style to an apparent Troll. You show true love, guys

    HI,
    I doubt it is a bug.
    In Messages > Preferences > Messages you can set the Font, It's Colour and the background (default Balloons) colour as well plus of course the size.
    This should stick if you Own the .plist that this info is written to (And the folder that it is in)
    You should also have Read and Write permissions.
    In the Finder use the Go Menu > Go to Folder and type in ~/Library/Preferences
    Find com.apple.ichat.plist  (yes messages till uses this one)
    highlight it
    Do a Get Info (CMD and iKeys together)
    In the Info Panel at the bottom your name followed by (me) should appear.
    Highlight this and then use the little cogwheel icon under the list.
    A phrase saying make yourshortname (me) the owner should appear and it should be greyed out if you alredy Own it.
    In the list you should be showing Read and Write Permissons
    Like so
    Whilst the Preferences folder is open go to the View menu of the Finder and SHow View Options and hit Show PAth Bar.
    Right click on Preferences in the Bar and select Get Info and check you Own this and have Read and Write permissions
    Repeat for Library.
    If you can't write to the .plist the info you change will not be saved.  (This includes having access to the folders you have to navigate to get there).
    If you are using the Format menu then this is letter by letter or word by word changes.

  • The Podcast app doesn't group non-itunes files correctly on devices (but does in itunes.) How can I change this?

    I tried using the Podcast App but found it didn't group non-itunes downloads correctly on the iPhone or iPad whereas with just the Music and Video apps previously, it did.  I have been into the file settings and change every attribute but it still clumps them all into one groups. In itunes on the PC they do group correctly. Anyone else had this problem? Can it be corrected?
    I was happy to delete Podcast app and go back to just Music & video apps but now I now fine that if I want, for example, to download TedTalk podcast I can't.

    I am dealing with the exact same issue.. any advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • HT3281 I don't see the Download link in the Podcasts app. I can't seem to download any podcasts. Grrr. Very frustrating. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I am trying to download NPR podcasts using the podcasts app. I just get a message can't do it. The suggestion is to click n downloads and remove anything from there. But there is no download area that I can see. Anyone have any ideas on how to get this to work?

    I found a solution. Anyone else encountering this, please see the Centos page for this:
