For the first time I am writing one of "those" reviews. This updated version of the app, while including some improvements, fails miserably. I cannot find the option to download the session. This used to work rather well. I would download while connected to wifi and then have a solid listening experience. Now, the episodes spend a lot of time buffering (with the nice, new background music) making it very difficult to actually listen to the broadcast.

Just downloaded it and frankly I'm finding it a little difficult to find my fav podcasts but I'll keep it for a few days to see if it improves

With the latest update the option to download the podcasts was removed, please add the option.

I was able to find the podcasts that I wanted. Great app!

The UI is a little awkward to get to grips with but now I've found the podcast I'm looking for it's fine. I've had no playback issues. I've only gone with four stars because I feel there are a few features missing. I would like to be able to mark podcast episodes as 'done' when I've listened to them and it would be really useful if playback would start from where I left off previously.
