Good app 👍 don't think the influencer focus should be as much as the friend focus, but great idea and good work

One stop shop for podcasts & what pods your favourite people listen too. Great App

Subscribed to all my favourites then kept crashing and jumping back to my home screen... the uninstall button worked perfectly though.

The idea is great, the execution is frustrating. It would be great to share podcasts I love with people I know...if I could only find the people I know. The "connect to Facebook" option gets an error and the "connect to Twitter" option lets me authorize the app and then just puts me right back where I started, unconnected to Twitter. There's no FAQ or customer service to be found, and from the unreplied-to one-star-reviews on this app, I see that even taking this last resort isn't going to do much. Sorry Goodpods, I really wanted you to work.

It's slow and keeps crashing and freezing up on me. It also seems there isn't an easy way to find people with similar tastes in podcasts to follow. I might like this if I could get it to stop freezing and crashing on me. Edit: I am enjoying it when it works, but it's still crashing most of the time. I will change my rating if you get the crashing fixed.

This is exactly everything I want from a podcast app social and easy to share with my audience what I am listening to The only problems I have with the is that there is no automatic download on subscribed podcasts when there is a new episode The other thing is that on my Motorola G7 power the app sometime becomes unlockable untill I fully close and reopen it and it restarts the episode I was recently listening to rather then continueing where I left off

IN THE NEWS:
Fast Company Magazine: “...The real innovation is in the podcast recommendation engine, which has been carefully designed to avoid the ideological echo chambers that plague other social platforms and podcast players. One of the 10 most innovative companies of 2021!”

Inc. Magazine: “Goodpods is a free podcast app that’s a mix between Goodreads and Instagram. The app has garnered the attention of celebrities as users including Kim Kardashian, Alyssa Milano, Simon Sinek, Katie Couric and Malcolm Gladwell.”

Dot.la: “Los Angeles-based Goodpods launched its free podcast app with the hopes of answering the question ‘What podcast should I listen to?’ “Rotten Tomatoes does it for movies. Yelp does it for restaurants, Goodreads did it for books,” said Goodpods co-founder, Ken Ramberg. “There was no discovery platform for podcasts.”
