Why is Podcast missing from the Music App. in iOS7

I'm dissapointed on the fact that Podcasts are no longer supported by iOS7's music app.
I used it on a daily basis and its hard for me to believe that Apple purposely made this change. I hope this is just an error which can be acceptable and hopefully fixed soon.
Apple..... I hope you're listening...

Which is a horrible app that shows every **** podcast you subsctribe to, whether or not you have a new episode, and doesn't let you arrange them properly to only show unplayed episodes.  It's also a completely needless app since the Music app handles podcasts just fine.

  • Why were podcasts removed from the stable Music app?

    Why were podcasts removed from the stable Music app? If it was absolutely necessary to have a seperate Podcasts app, why couldn't we have kept the iOS 6 option of leaving podcasts in the Music app if we didn't download the Apple Podcasts app. Since the iPhone 3g I have never had an issue with the Music app, it's always be reliably stable, yet it's been problem after problem after being forced to download the Podcasts app after updating to iOS 7.
    1) Podcasts app, every version since being forced to download it with iOS 7, has never synced correctly with iTunes. My phone is always missing podcasts that I've set to sync and want to listen to when I'm away from my computer. Seems like this should be a basic function (one that worked flawlessly when podcasts were in the Music app)
    2) Since the last two updates, it has been CRASH AD INFINITUM. Not a single podcast will play for more than a second before the app crashes to springboard. The newest update that supposedly 'fixed' the stability issue fixed nothing for me. What is the point of all the new features if the app won't stay open? I don't want new features, I just want to sync podcasts from iTunes and then listen to them on my phone. Podcasts really should be that simple!
    I've killed Apple Podcasts app from the multitasking view. Restarted app. Crash.
    I've deleted Apple Podcasts app, and all data, re-installed, and synced. Crash.
    I've deleted Apple Podcasts app, and all data, re-installed, did not sync, downloaded a podcast from within the app. Crash.
    I've restored my phone, only installed the Podcasts app, downloaded a podcast from within the app. Crash.
    Bought a paid third-party app, downloaded a podcast from with the app. Enjoyed listening to a podcast.

    Hi,
    This is a Google problem - they have purposefully removed the app.
    Sorry about that!

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    It worked for others

  • Does the EQ setting affect only audio played from the Music app?

    Does the EQ setting in Settings -> Music affect only audio played from the Music app or does it also affect any other audio? Specifically, I'd like to know if the setting is applied to audio podcasts that are played from Downcast. Thanks!
    --VV

    They will only affect the Music app.

  • Can I listen to audiobooks apart from the Music app?

    Is there any way for me to listen to my iTunes audiobooks apart from the Music app?
    The music app is annoying. It can't remember the playback position of the audiobook files.
    I used to change the books into podcasts and then use the podcasts app but now it wouldn't sync .
    I wish Apple will make a seperate Audiobooks app...

    It didn't show up in my music app for several hours.   Don't know why... But it's there.

  • HT1918 I have my iPad from a US store (Miami). Why I cannot buy from the US app store?

    I have my iPad from a US store (Miami). Why I cannot buy from the US app store?

    Are you in the US with a US based account and a US billing address ? If you aren't then you can't buy from the US store - you can only buy content from your own country's store. If you are in the US then do you get any messages when you try to purchase from the store ?

  • The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Restoring tracks deleted from the music app

    Hi all,
    I had to delete a bunch of music from the music app on my iPhone to make space for the iOS 7 update. That's all been done and dusted and my iPhone 4 is running iOS 7 without a problem.
    Now I plug in my phone to my laptop thinking iTunes will now re-sync all the music I deleted from my phone thus restoring my library to how it was, however that has not proved to be the case and iTunes isn't restoring those tracks I deleted. Is there anything I need to do to make iTunes restore those tracks that were deleted?
    Cheers.

    anyone with any sort of suggestion to help me out?

  • Why are Albums missing from the Albums "tab" in Photos app?

    I just upgraded to the new version of OS X with the new Photos app.  All of my photos transferred over to the new app correctly, but not all of my Albums are showing up in the new Albums "tab" in the Photos app. 
    For instance, my "Honeymoon" album does not show up on the Albums "tab," but when I search for in the Photos app it will appear. 
    How do I get all of my Albums to show up on this tab?
    Additionally, does anyone know how to change the "timestamp" on photos?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Terence,
    I appreciate the reply, but that did not solve my issue.  Several of my albums are still "missing" from the list, even though I can find them when I search:

  • The Music App in iOS7 is an annoying step back - Why?

    As a whole, I appreciate the design and functionality changes within iOS7. It's breathed new life into the OS, given people something new to explore and talk about.
    But Apple seem to have lost their way when it comes to the basics of playing some music on an iPhone. It's become fiddly, complicated, fragmented and regressed - iOS6 had the right balance
    Why? Well, based on personal experience and comments made by colleagues, friends etc, the most regular complaints are..
    -- Why have users been forced to listen to podcasts in the separate app? Apple - not everyone listens to spoken word podcasts. We listen to music mixes etc.. Having those mixes in the SAME PLACE as our other music makes it a more seamless experience. Switching apps is a ball-ache
    -- Why can't we delete entire Albums in one swipe any more? Track by track, is again, a ballache
    -- The controls to scrub through tracks are tiny and barely usable. iOS6 allowed you to scrub and see the slider under your finger - now you have a tiny red line that leads to inaccurate movement thru tracks
    -- Music control while the phone is locked is very very frustrating in iOS7 in a few ways...
    1) iOS6 - you could double click the home button, the controls (large) would appear on screen. You could hit play and instantly listen to some shuffled music. In iOS7 - you have to swipe up,hit play then hope it starts a track (which it doesnt always do)
    2) The above isnt too much of an issue when the phone is on a desk in front of you, or in your hand... but when you're using the phone while running, the clunky process is unhelpful and unintuitive. If you use an arm band to hold your iphone while you exercise try dragging the control centre up, selecting the music app and playing a track while you've got a plastic cover over the screen - it's nigh on impossible
    3) You cant enter the music app unless there's a track already playing - why isnt Music.app quickly accessible from Control Centre? I'd use that more than a stopwatch
    3) There's no indication that a track is playing unless you open control centre. Where has the triangular 'play' icon gone in the taskbar?
    -- In Album view, the coverart icons are too large- takes longer to scroll thru a collection of albums, especially as the alphbetical slider on the right hand side of the screen is smaller and omits every other letter
    Overall, the app is flawed / too skewed toward the purchase of media via the iTunes store
    I doubt very much whether Apple will read this post or listen to customer feedback and deviate from their design vision. Apple regularly claim they identify a customer need and fulfill it - would be good if they were good to their word on this particular aspect of iOS7
