Downcast Podcast App available for iPad, iPhone, Mac OS X
Downcast has been available for iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) for some time now but recently they released it for Mac OS X. Downcast on the Mac allows you to download, play and sync all of your favorite podcasts.
Downcast comes with the following features:
- Search, subscribe to and download audio and video podcasts
- Manually subscribe to podcasts via URL
- Download podcasts automatically (including resuming downloads)
- Browse and download older podcast episodes
- Auto-update podcast feeds based on schedule
- Settings for auto-download and episode retention (globally and per-podcast)
- Import and export podcast feeds via OPML
- Import supported audio/video media files
- Support for password-protected feeds
- Create and edit smart playlists
- View podcast details and episode show notes
- Rename podcast subscription names
iCloud Syncing
One of the killer features is iCloud Syncing, which if you are like me and have used Downcast on the iPhone it enables you to instantly sync your podcasts from your iOS device to your Mac using iCloud. As long as you are logged in using the same email address on both devices in iCloud it works like magic.
It also supports the following playback features
- .5x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x and 3x speed playback
- Chapters support for enhanced podcasts
- Stream episodes without downloading
