# Press and App Facts | The Podcast App

# Current app details for The Podcast App.

Last updated: June 2026

Use this page when writing about The Podcast App, adding it to a directory, comparing podcast players, or linking to a stable app overview. The details below stay inside the verified free and Premium feature boundaries.

## Use this wording when you need a concise, accurate description.

### One-sentence description

The Podcast App is an independent podcast player for iOS and Android with free core listening, no account required to start, no app-inserted ads, OPML portability, and optional Premium AI features.

### Directory description

The Podcast App helps listeners search public podcast feeds, follow shows, manage a queue, use speed controls and a sleep timer, import or export OPML, listen offline within free limits, and add Premium AI workflows when transcript-backed review is useful.

## Deep-link to the exact fact you need.

Use these stable anchors when citing app facts, screenshots, source links, or open-podcasting support boundaries.

## Free features all users can start with.

These are the public feature boundaries used across the site so press copy, directory listings, and review snippets do not overstate the product.

### Core listening without an account

Users can stream and play podcasts, search, follow shows, build a queue, use background playback, set a sleep timer, adjust speed, use chapters, and start listening before creating an account.

### Portable podcast library

OPML import and export are part of the free core player, so listeners can move subscriptions without rebuilding every followed show by hand.

### Clear free limits

Free listeners get 3 active offline downloads, 5 unique video episode watches per day, and 1 transcript generation per day for episodes up to 1 hour.

### Limited AI episode chat

AI episode chat is available after a transcript exists, with current free limits of 9 chats per day and 50 per week plus network and identity safeguards.

### No app-inserted ads

The app does not insert its own banner, feed, or player ads. Podcast episodes and embedded video sources may still include publisher or platform advertising.

### Premium AI is optional

Premium unlocks Premium Podcast Brain, Synthesis Radio creation, summaries, AI chapters, flashcards, translated audio, higher transcript and chat limits, and expanded downloads and video limits.

## What is free, what is Premium, and what should be linked.

Search Console link samples show app store links plus a small number of podcast ecosystem references. The useful long-term path is relevant editorial and directory links to accurate app-specific pages, not low-quality link submissions.
