User Reviews for Outcast for Watch
Only choice for podcast
I never take the time to fill out these reviews, let alone base my choices on them. Especially since I used to think the reviews weren't real. I decided to find out for myself by fill out this comments. tried several other podcast players for my watch, and none of them can even begin to compare to this one. This Player is the best one available on the app store, it not only streams podcasts but it's the only app to allow streaming audio without having to connect a separate device. It has also allowed me to stream the latest videos. Don't waste the time that I did downloading and ultimately deleting those other worthless apps, go with the best one first, you won't regret it. So why are you waiting for? Get this app!
Good on Series 3 and Great on Series 4
Everything about this app is great EXCEPT the horrible BATTERY DRAIN. U can see the battery v life going down as the minute goes by. It's insane. I had this app installed when I had my Applewatch series 3 running watch OS whatever version it was during late 2017 until buying my Series 4 here in October. It was the only podcast app that allowed me to download podcast episodes straight to my watch. It was key. It has its faults but that was Apples restrictions. Now with watch OS5.0 With the series 4, they updated some things making the app much better n easier allowing u to download straight from ur phone app then just unpausing it on ur watch to finish the download. I prefer it to Apples Podcast app n also now seen like I owe them some sort of loyalty for getting me my podcasts back when no other app could on my Applewatch. The best part about the update is the volume and also being able to restart it podcasts from where u were last listening. In the old version, I always wrote down the time I was at n then fast forwarded to the correct spot. Props 2 the app developers.
Even with Apple Podcasts, IOS 14, and WatchOS 7, this is a MUST
Sure Apple Podcasts can automatically sync podcasts to your watch but here’s the catch: you can’t do it on demand and it has to be on the charger. If you use your Apple Watch to track your sleep and then go on a morning run wishing to listen to a morning podcast? You are out of luck. That is where Outcast comes in. A stand-alone Apple Watch Podcast app that allows for on demand downloads (which are quick by the way) without a charger. I can wake up in the morning from tracking my sleep and then download a 25 minute podcast in about two minutes or less and be on my run listening within the next few minutes. This app is a must (ps: I have tried Overcast and pretty much every other claimed stand alone Apple Watch podcast app, none come close). I am so glad with recent updates the developer shows their current interest in keeping Outcast alive. Keep up the good work and don’t stop support!

Absolutely love it
I bought an Apple Watch 3 with Cellular for 2 reasons; I’m sick of carrying around a gigantic phone and I wanted to be able to listen to Christian podcasts while I was hitting golf balls, shooting hoops, etc...without having to lug around my phone...and this app is excellent for your Apple Watch. I have no complaints...I simply love it and I did try a few others and they were not nearly as user friendly as Outcast. Thank you my good people at Outcast! FYI - for those of you on the fence about adding your watch to your cell plan, it’s worth it...well worth it. I think it’s like $10-$15 per month with a $30 activation fee but it is SO worth it! I know this will ensure no one reads this review but God bless and I hope you find great podcasts that are uplifting and help you in your walk!
Just...tired
I am just tired of this. Save your dollar and just use podcasts from the phone.I bought it a month ago.First, I tried to download a single podcast episode, and it was already a drama. I followed the Developers’ guidelines (disable bluetooth on the phone, make sure that the watch is connected to WiFi), and the app crashed two or three times before even starting to download. Then you need to keep the watch screen on. Fine, let’s try that. Even when doing that, though, the download pauses every five seconds. I wanted to take a video but it was hard to keep the watch screen alive when pointing the phone at it. After pressing “resume” 20 times, at the end apparently it worked. Or at least, it seemed to have worked.I connect my headphones to the watch, press play. Nothing happens, and the podcast auto-pauses. The time stays at 0:00.I try again, no luck. It doesn’t pause, but the time does not progress. I feel a “tap” from the swatch every time I press play, but right now it seems like the app is mocking me.In a month I could not make it work even once.On the plus side, the developers are kind and responsive, but the app simply (most likely for Apple Watch’s framework) does not provide a decent podcast experience. Good for the lucky ones that managed to get it to work, I am not among them.Summary: a pain to download podcasts, a pain
This is a REALLY great app
I spent the better part of a day trying different podcast apps trying to find one that would let me choose exactly which podcast episodes I wanted to download to my Apple Watch. Many apps had some vague promise this could happen but couldn’t explain how, or a subscription was required to unlock this functionality. And then I found Outcast. For $1 it does exactly what I want and I don’t have to go through a complicated syncing with my phone or make tons of different playlists. I can simply search for a podcast on my watch, download whichever episode I chose, and off I can go on a jog- leaving my phone at home.I usually don’t write reviews, but this app deserves some praise for its simplicity and doing exactly what it promises. Thank you!
Doesn’t work whenever you follow their directions
Super disappointed about this app. Purchased because it was featured by Apple a few weeks ago as being one of the essential apps to download for your Apple Watch. You cannot download anything no matter what disconnect from your Apple Watch like it says no dice connected via Wi-Fi without your Apple Watch. No dice. I have an Apple Watch that’s enabled with cellular data and it still doesn’t work connected or unconnected from the Apple Watch. Not to mention that the user interface is just terrible seems OK but it freezes up and I’ve had to uninstall reinstall a few time. it’s not clear how to get to the settings etc. what a bummer since all I really want to do is listen to podcasts without having to carry my iPhone around. I think this app was able to download 1 episode a few weeks ago. Took forever made my watch hot. I’m not even able to that now.
Great But Kills My Battery
Updating my previous review. App works so much better now in all respects EXCEPT it kills my battery! I use it about an hour a day on my walk and my watch battery which started above 90% is routinely down to 35-40% by the end of the walk. I have to charge the watch right away or I can’t get through the rest of the day (gotta close those rings!) If The watch could be charged while wearing it wouldn’t be a problem but since I can’t this bothers me. It’s probably more an Apple problem than an Outcast problem but we all know how responsive Apple is to customer concerns! Just be aware when using this app that your battery will drain super fast. Still, it’s a great app.I was very excited that this app was finally filling the podcast gap in my Gen3 Apple Watch. Exported my podcasts from Overcast and I was good to go. It worked great for a couple of days then locked up. Had to restart the watch to get it to work again. A week later I’m having the same problem. I think this app has great potential and just needs a little tweaking. Maybe when the next update comes out it will be more stable. This is well worth trying, just know you have to work with it. Hoping to give the next update 5 stars.
It works
The app works where many others do not. I cannot seem to get the app to push podcasts from my phone to the watch via the phone side. I end up having to download podcasts with my watch which takes a few minutes. Also, the podcasts seem to download faster when the watch is near the phone despite the directions. I cannot get this app to stream podcasts without downloading them first which is probably more of an indictment on how poor watch cell service is. All said and done, this app helps make up for the fact that the Apple Watch is very limited in streaming podcasts which was the entire reason I bought it—to stream podcasts without having to take my phone on runs or to the gym. If my gripes above were addressed the app would be perfect but it works so it is hard to complain too much.
