Podcini.R is a revamped version from Podcini version 5, uses a modern object-base database. Though loaded with newer features, it works in similar ways as Podcini. Version 6.5 as a major step forward brings the capability of handling channels and playlists on Youtube or YT Music as normal podcasts within the Podcini.
Podcini, an open source podcast instrument, attuned to Puccini, adorned with pasticcini and aromatized with porcini, invites your harmonious heartbeats.
It allows you to subscribe to, in addition to Youtube channels, any RSS feed (with or without media), gives you instant access to millions of free and paid podcasts or plain RSS feeds, from independent podcasters to large publishing houses. Add, import and export their feeds hassle-free using the Apple Podcasts database, OPML files or simple RSS URLs.
Download, stream or queue episodes and enjoy them the way you like with adjustable playback speeds, chapter support and a sleep timer. In case the feed contains no media (plain RSS feed), Text-to-Speech engine (if available) is used to play the text.
Save effort, battery power and mobile data usage with powerful automation controls for downloading episodes (specify times, intervals and WiFi networks) and deleting episodes (based on your favourites and delay settings).
Transcripts or episode descriptions can be easily shared as text to other apps for record-keeping.
Listening progress can be instantly synced across devices in the same wifi network without a server.
Made by podcast-enthusiasts, Podcini is free in all senses of the word: open source, no costs, no ads.
Podcini emphasizes on efficient battery usage, streamlined podcast management and convenient player control while listening.
Import, organize and play
* Manage playback from anywhere: homescreen widget, system notification and earplug and bluetooth controls
* Add and import feeds via the Apple Podcasts, gPodder.net, fyyd or Podcast Index directories, OPML files and RSS or Atom links
* Enjoy listening your way with adjustable playback speed, chapter support, remembered playback position and an advanced sleep timer (shake to reset, lower volume)
* Access password-protected feeds and episodes
Keep track, share & appreciate
* Keep track of the best of the best by marking episodes as favourites
* Find that one episode through the playback history or by searching titles and shownotes
* Share episodes and feeds through advanced social media and email options, the gPodder.net services and via OPML export
Control the system
* Take control over automated downloading: choose feeds, exclude mobile networks, select specific WiFi networks, require the phone to be charging and set times or intervals
* Manage storage by setting the amount of cached episodes, smart deletion and selecting your preferred location
* Adapt to your environment using the light and dark theme
* Back-up your subscriptions with the gPodder.net integration and OPML export
