Pocket Casts

Pocket Casts is an excellent tool for searching for and downloading popular podcasts. It features a modern interface and is technologically clever since it lets you synchronize your subscriptions and preferences across devices for $3.99 on Android and iOS. There are extra settings that allow you to manage your download choices, which is useful if your data is limited.

Pocket Casts includes video podcasts in addition to audio podcasts and allows you to effortlessly search for new podcasts. There are sections for finding trending podcasts, featured podcasts, and the most popular podcasts, as well as a search box to find specific programs. The $3.99 download charge is a one-off, so once you've downloaded the app, you'll have full access to features like volume boost, which increases the loudness of playing without adjusting the volume on your device. You’ll also get a silence trimmer, which automatically fasts forwards through silence if the podcast has dead air for some reason.
