Love this app, I use every day and love that I can easily get recommendations from friends, have found a bunch of new podcasts easily this way! It’s a new app so there’s still occasional bugs but developers respond quickly to fix anything you report so it feels like a personalized app service :)
Amazing idea but needs some work in implementation.Gave it 5 star supposing it’s team working on it. Don’t like to migrate to another app as I listen to a loooot of podcasts (more than 150 all together) so I wish Swoot make the app flawless and usable. Thanks anyway for making the ideas real.
I often loose phones and forget to download all my “essential” apps and when I do, I forget how great Swoot is.Easy search, centralized podcasts and I get to see what my friends are watching.
I’ve been using Swoot for at least 6 months now and continue to be impressed with the way the app works and evolves. I’m discovering new podcasts from following friends and colleagues and having conversations with some of those friends after I’ve listened. Swoot is consistently broadening my perspective too with the curated lists and recommendations shared via social media. Thanks Swoot! And major kudos to your social media manager!! Well done.
I always wanted the ability to see what other people were listening to, so this is perfect. Knowing what my friends are listening to is a great way to find good stuff to listen to. It can also be a great conversation starter when you both listened to the same thing.
This app is fantastic. Everyday on my commute I’m able to listen to my podcasts, and see what my friends are listening to! Love the recommend feature. Can’t wait to see what other social features they will add! (Podcast discussion groups, maybe?)
What a great platform to have everything together and not waste time. I love that my friends and I recommend podcasts that are great and can sift the ones that are not our interest. Plus Podhero support team is always here to help.
I had heard of podcasts and thought about trying to find some but had no idea where to find them. SWOOT makes it easy. As a beginning listener I really appreciate the suggestions. If I was doing it on my own I most likely would have given up by now. Thanks for the easy platform to find and listen to some interesting subjects. I also like the idea of being able to see what friends and family are listening to. Thanks for making it easy to be a podcast listener!
There are other social podcast apps out there. But this one is the best by far. They are still adding features, but it’s bug free, fast, and everything is well thought through and well implemented. Top notch developers. They also respond to feature requests very quickly.
Thoughts on Swoot:+ Good privacy policy/ToS. Smells like PIPEDA and GDPR.+ Supports OPML import/export!+ Fairly intuitive interface+ Supports downloading and streaming playback- No ability to add arbitrary RSS URLs, which defeats the point of an open podcast ecosystem and removes Swoot from consideration as a real podcast player. - VERY slow (on my iPhone 6)- Playing a podcast makes my phone hot- Used 12% of my battery for 45 minutes of listening- No MP3 Chapter support- No support for password-protected feeds- Tab bar disappears when resuming the app from background- No silence removal feature- Very long sign-up flow that requires an email- OPML import missed several of my shows- No sleep timer- Skip forward and backward takes a very long time when playing above 1.25x- Player view has a down arrow to indicate how to dismiss it, but swiping down does nothing. You have to tap the button all the way at the top of the screen.EDIT: Thank you for your reply! I’m glad to hear that you’re planning to add most of these features to Swoot. However, the fact that “play an arbitrary RSS feed” wasn’t in your Minimum Viable Product strongly indicates to me that you don’t care about podcasting as an open ecosystem. When you’re adding new features, you should figure out how to add that one first.
