Podcasts and radio drama

Follow shows from recommendations, your country’s top charts or a search of the podcast directory — or paste any feed address. Episodes stream straight away, newest first, each with its own position; download only what you want offline.

Your folder is your library

Point the app at a folder of audiobooks on your device or in iCloud Drive — one subfolder of MP3 or AAC files per book. Manage everything in Files or Finder; share iCloud folders with family.

Made for every screen

A Liquid Glass design for iOS 26 with the system tab bar: every source is an icon with a count, and the bar tucks away as you scroll. On the iPhone Duo the system turns it into a rail on the right edge, right by your thumb.
