"Only certain podcasts are able to sync and be updated on wear OS. Tried a
few podcasts that don`t seem to sync and therefore can`t pull up any
podcasts (e.g Club Life podcast works, but Group Therapy podcast doesn`t)"

"If Conan the Barbarian could write code, this would be the app he created. Its a primative looking interface. 1. When I want a podcast, I`m used to searching on it, subscribing to it, choosing an episode, and hitting play. You can search on a podcast and ``add`` it. But then it disappears and I have to add it again. 2. When new episodes alerts do show up on my watch, you would think that clicking the little ``download button`` would download it, right? If you thought that, you`d be wrong. Nothing happens. Nothing that tells you the app is doing anything in the background. Sometimes the episodes make it to my queue, sometimes they don`t. 3. My other podcast players all show the podcasts that I am subscribed to, even when I am all caught up on episodes. When I listen to the last episode, the icon disappears. Only podcasts with episodes that have not been listened to are visible. The only way I know that it is miraculously still working is that a new episode alert will sound. But good luck trying to download it! (see #2) The app definitely needs a more intuitive interface. There needs to be something to show me all the podcasts that I have subscribed to."

"This is a very useful app, the only standalone watch podcast app I could find. Out works well and the interface is nice, the only problem I have is that streaming podcasts over wifi will give you a error message halfway through and it won`t go away until you force quit the app. This isn`t that big of a problem for me as I would just rather download it anyways."

"Fairly solid user experience. It appears that if you start a podcast, and then upgrade to premium, and then try to alter the speed from your phone, the speed does not change on your watch. This includes both single-podcast and global. Also, it appears that the WearOS activity running the app tries to completely take over my device, to the point where I cannot return home. I cannot access my notifications without killing the app. (Pixel Watch) I believe you should be using ongoing activity."

"Solid app! I have only one major problem with it: on Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, it just stops playback every couple of minutes. Found no apparent trigger. Background operations allowed, power saving off. It is quite annoying to resume playback all the time."

"At first, it was great! Then my headphones malfunctioned and had to be replaced. Now, new headphones, it says I`m connected, but no sound. 5 stars if it ever works again. Update: So, I`m back! This is a wonderful app! I fixed the connection problem and I think I was wrong to blame Wear Casts. Listen to my podcasts on my runs and I could hardly be happier!!"

"Works nice. Simple interface to download to the watch. I can seamlessly switch to listening on my phone. I would like it to be easier to swipe away podcast episodes which I don`t want or need anymore, but that would just be gravy"

"I`m very glad this app exists. It`s very easy to use and performs as described. If there is one thing I would change, it would be having the ability to arrange the podcasts in a custom order, like you can with the apps on Wear OS. I have gone into podcast settings and tried the ``sort by`` option, and I`ve tried long-pressing and dragging them but it doesn`t seem to work. Of course this is a feature most could do without (the web version of Google Podcasts can`t even do this) but it`s something I would really like."

"This is fantastic. Exactly what I wanted. Only downside is I can`t say ``Google resume my podcast`` but that`s not on them. Also its right on my wrist so I /still/ don`t have to dig through my pocket!"

"This is the right direction for podcast apps on Android Wear. I think you should be able to push podcasts to the watch from the phone app though. Also, consider connecting to a podcast directory service to make searching easier."
