This is great! As a Spotify user, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on why their podcast UX seems to miss the mark in so many places. I made the switch from Apple to Spotify so I could consolidate my audio, but I've found myself being frustrated with how many features are unintuitive or clunky. In your opinion, is there a method to their madness that I'm overlooking? Because, in theory, I think most users would agree a minimalist app like Shadow caters to their podcast needs more effectively.

@jonathan_nass Thanks Jonathan :) yeah I think a focused app is almost always going to give a better experience for a user. The aim with Shadow is to create something minimal but that everything it does, it does well. Lots more to come, I'm only getting started!

If you'd like to try out SharePlay (requires 15.1) with a podcast app, check this out. Other features include: Smart Downloads: Automatically downloads the next episode while deleting played. Intuitive Notifications: Notifies only when you are waiting on a new episode. Playback Speed: Adjusts using a time domain pitch algorithm for better vocal quality. Cloud Sync: Follows, playback times and settings in sync on all your devices. Widgets: Add an Up Next widget to your home screen. Search: Find podcasts and play episodes without needing to follow first. Themes: Switch between light and dark themes automatically. Privacy: no third-party analytics, ad services, or tracking code. Still early days, lots more features to add.
