Hey guys,

I've purchased many podcast apps over time including Downcast, Instacast, Pocket Casts and Podcatcher. These also seem to be the most popular apps. I just can't settle on the one I like most, each have their positives and negatives.

I'd love to get your opinions on which app you like the most, and why.

If the app you use isn't listed, please share it in the thread.

I've used them all — Instacast, Downcast, Podcaster, Pocket Cast, and maybe some others. Although I used Instacast for quite a while (and liked it), I recently started using Downcasts. I really like the speed of the refresh, the playlists, and the sleep timer they built in to DC. Either Downcasts or Instacast would be my recommendation.

I use Instacast and the syncing with iCloud is what makes it work for me. All of my podcasts are synced across all of my iOS devices. Hell, Apple can't even do that.
