![]() Not that the app is so easy to use, but that it’s so easy to not have to install and learn another app so easy to keep the default podcast setting of my iPhone and the one that bears its manufacturer’s name so easy to just roll with the punches until I’m bloody and bruised, and then keep rolling some more. That is also the appeal of Apple’s podcast app. It was something of a relief to type “apple podcast app” in Twitter’s search field and uncover several fresh complaints about the app from the same week. and that the podcast I was previously listening to isn’t one of the odd ones that gets Raptured from my phone sometimes lately, under completely mysterious circumstances. All there is to do at that point is restart my phone, and hope the problem gets fixed. Trying to go back to the podcast’s landing page only leads me to an eternal loading screen, the podcast app equivalent of the MacBook’s spinning beachball of death. Whatever song I was last listening to-songs being distinct from podcasts-returns when I manually command my AirPods to resume playing. The strip at the bottom of my phone screen that usually displays what’s Now Playing, suddenly reads Not Playing and jettisons the podcast art thumbnail for good measure. Sometimes, lately, the app just stops working in the middle of a podcast, as though it got so bored facilitating an episode of Las Culturistas that it died. Few things are as boring to read about in detail quite like podcast app defects, so I will keep this description brief.
