UPDATE: Still live the app, but one issue: if I choose to manually manage my "Play Later" playlist, sometimes my episodes jump around after I move them into my preferred order. Not sure why this is happening. Can that be fixed? Everything that bugged me about my previous podcasting app are beautifully handed here. Very easy to mark episodes as played. Doesn't freeze when playing long episodes. Easy to search for podcasts, great suggestions.

This app has some feature that I've become accustomed to that I haven't found in other podcast apps, otherwise I would stop using it due to the bugs and aggressive monetization. I've always had issues with using Bluetooth to pause/unpause. The app doesn't keep track of the series I'm listening to when I want to play the next episode (it just tries to play the most recent). The worst offense is the ads for premium. It used to do a popup basically once a day... Now it's more like once an hour.

Cannot move app to sd card. Thank you for your reply, though some devices (like mine) have a very limited internal storage, so every MB counts. Still, I see no reason not to let users decide wether to risk and move the app itself to SD card. There are a lot of stable apps that provide such an option. PLUS: I didn't find how to import a folder, for example an audiobook. It selects only a separate file.

Hi - There are some disadvantages if the app is moved to an external storage (see here https://goo.gl/9VsGdn), which is why we do not plan to support it. But, you can set the storage location of your downloads instead to your SD card as preferred storage location. As for mass import of media files, this is being considered for future updates.
