Castos for Negative User Reviews

✓ Log in frozeCan’t get past the log in screen it is froze..MuminbbVersion: 1.0.12

✓ Decent but …Well, the podcasts appear in your library seamlessly and play. You can adjust the playback speed and volume. There is a download feature which absolutely does not work for me on my iPhone, so I can’t listen offline. And what I dislike the most is the lack of any option to bookmark and save particular episodes..MistfallVersion: 1.1.10

✓ Functional but with some big flaws.Okay, I am grateful for an app designed around only doing what it purports to do, and not to be a data collecting Trojan Horse for advertisers. But, there are a few things that would be really helpful to make this a stand out product 1) Let me download the podcasts in the app so I can listen to them on planes or when out of cellphone range. There is apparently an arduous process of downloading from the website, but haven’t successfully accomplished that. 2) Automatically save my place in the podcast instead of going back to the beginning each time a want to restart. Regards, John Gallien.John GallienVersion: 1.0.7

✓ BuggyBuggy when skipping forward/backward. Stops and goes a handful of times. Close the app, restart, and try again. Update: Also have to turn phone off and back on to play a different podcast track. Playback timer no longer works. Can no longer skip forward or backward within a track. Almost useless app now..Russ81hVersion: 1.1.3

✓ No bookmark option.Please add a bookmark option. Seems like a basic feature that any podcast provider must have..Test101Version: 1.1.10

✓ CrashesCrashes when attempting to play any new content..Kanute2020Version: 1.0.63

✓ No longer worksI somehow got logged off the app maybe with a recent update. I try to log in with email so that I can get the code and no email is ever sent. I checked spam and everywhere else at least 10 times. I deleted the app and tried the whole thing all over again only to fail. No Bueno!.HdhduyhrhdVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Piece of crapHow can you have an app that is so hard to register? After trying to login 8 times it keeps sending me the “magic link” just let me login already! How hard can it be?.ScottsaGatorVersion: 1.0.1

✓ Bluetooth controlBluetooth control stopped working after latest iPhone update..GuyUncleVersion: 1.1.21

✓ Needs alot of workThe “unplayed” tab isn’t accurate. Only shows a handful of episodes. So, all episodes show up in the “all” tab even if they are unplayed. It is such a nuisance to scroll through all episodes to try to remember which ones have been listened to. An accurate “already played” tab would help or fix the current “unplayed” tab so ALL UNPLAYED EPISODES actually show up. I wish Confessionals would just create a premium member stream for itunes/spotify..Maureen 99Version: 1.1.10

✓ Cant even log onI type my email the screen scrolls down and wont move up to even log on, works ok with ipad.Recovery2Version: 1.0.1

✓ Doesn’t save your placeI am BEGGING you (whomever that may be) PLEASE fix it so your place in a given episode is saved if you have to pause. I listen to The Confessionals while working and if I have to pause to take a call, my episode restarts from the beginning. Makes it almost not worth paying to be a member or supporter for podcasts..Bree145267Version: 1.0.63

✓ Loading issuesI use spotify, rokfin and now this app. This is the only app i have issues loading episodes. Downloaded this app to listen to “the confessionals”, constant issues trying to play episodes. Sometimes closing the app and trying again works, sometimes it doesnt. Canceling membership for the confessionals..Chrisw.rexVersion: 1.0.56

✓ Non-StarterPasswordless login is a fad and needs to stop. It’s neither convenient nor is it anywhere close to a good user experience. When the email services won’t send a login code (yep, I checked my spam filter), I can’t use this app. Ironically, I have my username and password but I can’t login to my own Castos account. Might want to get some tests and observability around your services. This is a pretty bad fail..WjnielsenVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Bare BonesNo sleep timer and does not save where you left off..SlavamokVersion: 1.0.42

✓ Randomly closing downI will be listening to a podcast and it will close and boot me off the app. Makes it to where I will have to reload app and resume podcast. It happens about 3-4 times in a hour and half minute podcast.Jwmorris23Version: 1.1.10

✓ Can’t log inWorked good the first time I tried it. Now it won’t let me login because it sent a code to my email that I have yet to receive after a week of resending multiple times..See YuhVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Needs a sleep timerWorks fine, but how did a sleep timer get overlooked?.Matt7472844927Version: 1.1.3

✓ This is the worst podcast app I have ever encounteredThe UI when it works is not great. No way to search prior sources or episodes. And then there is the reliability . Terrible rarely works constantly buffers . Only use this if you are forced to. Every content owner should look elsewhere as the listed company does not even bother to track their rankings ie they don’t care..PPK_55Version: 1.0.23

✓ Volume issuesThe volume level is significantly lower on this app compared to other podcast apps.XgrlmelVersion: 1.0.48
