Awesome, will give it a try. May I have a question to someone who knows a lot about podcasts. Is there a way to filter the podcasts by language? Either in your app or elsewhere.

@visualpharm Yes, you have to set the localization/language of the app to a different language/country. Our app will support this soon!

This is a pretty novel idea and the app/feature set looks fantastic! I'll try it out today.

@ashish_gupta7 Thank you πŸ™
This reminds me of SoundCloud's ability for users to comment on tracks with timestamps. Brilliant. Haven't launched my podcast yet. Working on the distribution strategy and increasing engagement by using Listen App is not definitely going to be a part of it. Can't wait to use your product.

@paulmikhaylenko - the app looks fantastic. I ran into an issue during onboarding. I chose import from other app (other option was Apple Podcasts) since I use Pocket Casts as my main app and followed the instructions. Exported to OPML from Pocket Casts (which I've done successfully several times when I want to check out a new app) and used the "Copy to Listen" share extension but got an error that no files were found. When I went back a screen, it shows "212 of 212" which is the # of casts I subscribe to, but then it just hangs. Since it displays "Give us a minute to tidy up your feed,' I waited 7-8 minutes and nothing happened. I quit, restarted, tried the process again to no avail. But since Apple Podcasts was an option on onboarding, I figured I could access it in settings, too, but the only option there is to import from OPML.

@scottwwilliams Apologies for this. We're looking into it right away.
Dave Goldblatt
Interesting concept. I guess I'm wondering - why would I use this app as opposed to listening on Spotify?
Paul Mikhaylenko

@dave_goldblatt There's a ton :) Connect with other listeners, see what your friends are listening to, discuss episodes with other listeners globally using your voice, etc
Sorry to say, being an android user I am disappointed. When are you planning to launch Android app?

Can we support Apple Login in the future?

@lucky13820 Yes, definitely on our roadmap, along with Twitter. Thanks!

Can this replace overcast or other podcasts apps? Something that's important to me is carplay since that is when I listen to the most. A bonus feature would be apple watch support.

@j5uh We're just getting started, watch and carplay will be coming a tad later... if you create an account, you'll get updates with the latest developments.
