What we love:
-Love the way podcasts play and the little circle on the bottom right hand corner for play/pause -The flow of new podcasts for the week -The general layout -"I like the concept. The idea is great to see what new podcasts are there instead of just relying on iTunes top 10 list" -"I like that you can fast forward or rewind the podcast with your finger instead of that 10 sec but they have on podcast" -(Note: my friend preferred this, but I like the 10 second fwd/back)
What can use some improvement:
-"The app is very glitchy. I'm "following" you but you don't appear as one of my "friends" and I can't read what it says below your name (I'm assuming you connected through Twitter)" -"It would also be nice to have a page where you could see a list of everyone who is following you and who you are following" -"Also I can't go into your profile to see who you're following!" -(Likewise, I was not notified that my friend had started following me. I don't know where to find my friends?) -"I can't go into a podcast to see who liked it..." -I'm not sure if I just can't find it but I typically prefer to download podcasts in order to save on data. They help me get through my 3hr commute. -"I don't like how they make you sign up with connecting FB or Twitter No other option to just sign up independently of the other apps" (I agree with this)
Overall the consensus was that we can't wait to make this our number one podcasting app and are genuinely excited for how this all develops! I'm not sure if you've talked to the guys over at Gimlet about your app, or if they are hard to reach... I did notice you have Gimlet shows on the screens on your website, but you are both part of the podcast revolution.
My other two podcast friends are at a wedding for the weekend, but I will follow up with them when they get back.
Love your app!! It's like Instagram for Podcasts!
