As an users of Pocket Casts I can not live without:
- Skip intros customised per podcasts. Some podcast have from 1 min to 5-6 minutes of advertising . You can easily forget about that. When you listen a lot of podcasts, all of that time adds up very quickly.
- Variable speed/trim silence customised per podcast. Some podcasters speak faster. Some topics are more complex and details must be listen more carefully to fully get the most of the episodes.
- History of listened episodes.
- Sync between platforms. I can start to listen to an episode in the Macbook and finish it on the go in my phone.
