This is really the first and only cross-platform app that allows for easy note taking of podcasts. It does a lot of things right. It allows for easy subscription/playback of podcasts and makes the clipping of 30 second snippets easy. There is a lag when you bookmark, but the app developer is aiming to eliminate that. Having spoken to the CEO and chief developer, there is a firm commitment to continue improving the app. It's going to become essential to my podcast listening. Recommended highly.

This app has a ton of potential, but it looks like it isn't developed anymore. Potential: After making a bookmark, it will transcribe said bookmark You can also make notes and audio notes to those bookmarks Not a lot of apps out there for android that do that yet. Hopefully Airr.io comes to the rescue soon! The playlist, podcast, and high level notes screen all look top notch, but when you go past that it gets pretty awful. Cons: The rest of it is super janky. You can't edit the notes after you take them, or export them. Taking an audio note was a bit clumsy and odd UI compared to the rest of the app. Felt like it was just thrown in. Quite a bit of lag when navigating screens in the player.

It isn't there yet. While this is a good idea and badly needed, it executes poorly. I keep running into problems The notes don't save. It doesn't work offline. The developers are nice and do communicate. I appreciate that. But this is not a fully functional note taking app yet. I am a little miffed at the notes i have lost, and that is the reason for the low star rating. If i find it becomes stable and reliable, i may give it another try.

This app has so much potential and I am giving it the 5 star rating in hopes of getting more support for it. My biggest issue right now is that some of my notes are randomly disappearing.

Ability to bookmark sections of podcast great! But volume problems persist. Volume switches back and forth between media (speaker sound) & in call mode (ear sound). Very annoying, once this is fixed would rate as 5 stars.

Extremely easy to use and invaluable for keeping track of, and sharing, highlights from my favorite podcasts while on the go.
