MagicalSubway,
Almost perfect
Love the simplicity and the record interface. Great icons for cortex listeners as well! One thing that I’m missing a lot trying to switch from the default podcast app is the ability to specify how many episodes to download automatically and limit the number of downloaded episodes so a single subscription doesn’t eat up all of the storage. Otherwise a great app all around!

Could be THE BEST with bug fixes
I think this app has the best podcast playing interface. The minimalist interface takes some getting used to, but I like that it’s not in my face like other apps. There is just about every cool feature in this app: skip silence, change icon and color scheme, and sharing audio clips. Unfortunately, there are many bugs that cause the app to stop and/or crash.
I’ve had the app crash when I’ve tried to share an audio clip from an episode; the Topics tab show no results for various topics, like medicine, for which I’m sure there are actually plenty of relevant podcasts; there are three different places to unsubscribe from a podcast, and I have to remember the right one that will actually remove it from my library—after I restart the app. Also, I wish the library was laid out like some sort of LP collection, and the Mac turntable UI is glitchy-ugly. Fixes for these issues would have me rushing back to Cosmicast on all my devices.

Instantly became my main podcast app!
It’s everything I need in an app: elegant design, simple to use, reliable, and a communicative developer.
Cosmicast is simply beautiful. The developer has been quickly updating it with features we actually care about and was quick to answer when I emailed about a bug I ran into. It was fixed within a day! It feels really nice as a user to know the developer stands by their product and wants to provide a great experience. Give it a try, you will NOT be disappointed.

Potential to be the best.
UPDATE: +1 star. Developer implemented all feedback within a week. Near perfect Podcast app now.
The developer has already committed to CarPlay support, some minor tweaks to the UI and this app would be perfect. I would love to see a way to make the Library tab default over the Popular tab. The subscribe button should be more prominent, and it would be awesome to be able to get a podcast playing with one or two less clicks.

There are a few bugs, such as freezing the the graphics of the wheel altering. Podcasts, even in progress, will reset if I change to a different podcast.
Also, the ability to save specific podcasts would be nice.

Innovative Design
This is a great app! I love the design elements and how flexible/customizable it is! The library view is a bit simplistic and hard to navigate, but as this is so new, and the developer is so active, I suspect that it will improve quickly! All in all, this makes listening to podcasts super fun and the record player imagery brings up a delightful sense of nostalgia!

Getting into podcasts, almost perfect
I saw this posted on reddit and loved the aesthetic so I bit the bullet, after all devs gotta support devs! The only thing I wish this had was notifications so I know when a new episode gets posted for a podcast I’m subscribed to. Otherwise absolutely awesome!

Car Play Crashing
Car play crashes as soon as something is selected. The UI is visually appealing, but it seems like form over function. The app only allows half of your screen space for new episodes, playlists and subscriptions. The player page is nice, but it’s frustrating to actually use.

Layout and lockup issues fixed - back to 5*
Faced layout and lockup issues which have been fixed after the latest update. Back to 5 stars for this neat little podcast app.

Does not work properly with CarPlay
I primarily listen to podcasts in my car and the main reason I bought this app was CarPlay. The CarPlay functionality does not work correctly at all. You basically have to open the app on your phone and keep it open for the app to work in CarPlay. Nothing will work without first opening the app on the phone. Very disappointing.
