Best substitute for Google podcasts so far... Like many I was scrambling for a replacement for Google podcasts. YouTube music does not adequately replace. This app has been pretty good, however it seems to struggle with the last few minutes of a podcast. It doesn't seem to matter if streaming or downloaded, I have not been able to listen to many podcasts from start to finish without the audio freezing for minutes at a time. Some shows I've just had to give up on the end. Room for improvement!

I've been using this for years and it's hands down the best podcast app. It's open source and does not have ads or tracking which is my favorite part about it. But it also has great controls (speed adjustment, sleep timer, customized fast forward and rewind intervals, etc.). Another great feature is the statistics tab which gives you a breakdown of how much you've listened to each podcast. One thing I would like is if you can change the podcast download directory which seems to not be possible.

Sadly, Google has decided to jilt the users of its podcast app. Having tried 8 apps in search of a replacement, AntennaPod has emerged as the decisive winner. It has many of the same characteristics as the Google Podcast, a clean presentation with ease of use. It is highly customizable Plus it has a functional RSS feed. (If Google suddenly changed course, I wouldn't go back 🔥)
