Mar 27, 2026Perfect for My Daily Commute
Google Podcasts has become my go-to app for catching up on my favorite shows. The auto-transcripts are a game-changer for when I miss something, and the search function is spot-on for finding new podcasts. It’s a simple, no-fuss app that works in the background and lets me pick up where I left off seamlessly.

Mar 27, 2026An App They Forgot About
This feels like a neglected project from Google. The app constantly resets my playback speed or forgets my place in episodes. The 'discovery' feature rarely surfaces anything new. The final straw was when I switched phones and there was no reliable way to export my subscriptions—years of curation, gone. It's free, but that's about the only positive thing I can say.

Mar 21, 2026Simple and Smart Podcast Companion
Google Podcasts has become my go-to for daily listening. The automated subscription suggestions are surprisingly accurate and have introduced me to great new shows, while the transcripts are a game-changer for following along in noisy environments or when I need to double-check details. It syncs seamlessly with my Google account across devices, and asking Google Assistant to play my favorites hands-free is incredibly convenient.

Mar 05, 2026Good for basics, frustrating for anything else
Google Podcasts makes subscribing and listening to popular shows effortless, especially with the automatic recommendations. However, the auto-generated transcripts are often inaccurate, and the app lacks basic features like playlist creation or cross-device sync. I appreciate that it's free and integrates with Google Assistant, but the inconsistent updates make it feel neglected.
