Podcast Republic 2.5.8
The app is filled with all sorts of features and tools you can use to make your experience inside the app more pleasant. It also comes with some customization features.
Sleek interface filled with all sorts of instructions
The UI comes packed with all sorts of features and tools to choose from. A side menu gives you access to all sorts of sections inside the app, including settings and customization options. The app displays tips and instructions for each section and page, showing new users how to navigate in the application.
The interface can be customized, choose which icons are displayed in portrait and landscape mode so that you only have shortcuts to tools that you actually need. The whole structure of the app is a bit confusing, the layout leaves users wondering where they are inside the app.
Listen to all sorts of podcasts
You'll find all sections of the app in the side menu, but before you can start searching for podcasts you should set your location to make sure you get only content based on your language and location. Search for content based on genre, choose from business, comedy, education, health, basically everything you'd need.
Subscribe easily with the tap of one finger right from the list of podcasts. You have access to your library, downloads, playlists and playing file on the bottom of the page. Download podcasts so you can listen to various files without internet connection.
Sync files between devices
The app lets you link your Dropbox account so you can sync podcasts between multiple devices and listen to them. It also comes with a car mode, to make it easy to listen in the car or an equalizer so you can adjust the sound of the podcast. In addition, users may create playlists with multiple files on their phones.
You can also import/export OPML files amd organize your subscriptions to stations and people that issue podcasts. The app also sorts your podcasts by history and unplayed, where you can find podcasts that you haven't played so you can distinguish between better.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is really nice and although it doesn't come with themes, it does let users customize the player in portrait or landscape view. |
Function8
It works just fine, you can download podcasts and organize them into playlists. You can also enable car mode or use the equalizer. |
Security9
The app only needs access to areas of your phone connected to its features, so you don't have to worry about privacy issues. |
Battery5
Consumption is really high, the app uses location services, downloads and plays audio so it's normal to take up a lot of resources. |
Price9
The app is free but it comes with banner ads which can be removed if you upgrade for 1.74$. |
Compatibility8
Developers didn't mention Android devices required for the app to work. |
One of the best podcast providers on the market.
