Great app!

Great app!

I appreciate that most all of my favorite podcasts are all in one place - thank you!

Podbean works better than other apps-giving auto play and sort options. I’m spoiled so don’t like the ones that are not as user friendly or smart.

For now i think it’s one of the best in the system so far

It’s a nice platform to launch your creativity.

I asked and podbean listened thanks for featuring smaller shows and helping us getting more listeners Reena Friedman Watts Host of the Better Call Daddy Show

Fun comforting and enlightening.

Podcast

If you want to start a Podcast, Podbean is the place to go. They offer great support from Training to Tech support. I started mine with them over 5 years ago and have zero complaints. Check them out!!!! The Old Man’s Podcast on Podbean!

Simple and easy to use. A great app for on the go listening. No profiles or sign ups to use. Completely free to download and use. I would recommend it.

Easy Setup for new and busy individuals.

Awesome program

I began using this app as it had a more thorough search database, especially hard to find podcast episodes. Nice layout for the most part. It fails however on loading and constantly I’m left trying to continue listening to a podcast episode and it never loads and suddenly disappears or is so delayed I simply give up and use a different platform. I sure hope they get rid of the bugs in this app. Tired of the unknown load time and malfunction.

You can pick you our favorite music interviews or Talkshows. Love it❤️

Love the show

Generally, very likable and helpful. Somethings are confusing and unclear. There are a bit of things that need improvement, but I don’t have 6 pages in length here. Easy to use though, and that’s a HUGE plus.

They ban you from making comments if they disagree with your comments. So woke big brother.

I paid for the no ads version and podcasts play ads every 9-11min. They are local ads so they are not from the podcasts. And always the most annoying ads. I don’t even mind ads in general but these are in addition to the in-pod ads and they always cut off the podcaster in mid sentence. It’s like-really!?!? I already paid for the ad fee version why ya gotta slime in a bunch of ads while I’m listening…are yall paying the podcaster even?

Smooth

When you pick up a show to finish, or your Bluetooth stops it, it cannot restart itself. It seems to loose its state even though restarting the app. It’s so frustrating. Fix it already STILL BROKEN

Thank you Podbean for being an app that allows me to hear awesome podcasts!

Very good app -love batch manage- because I listen to multiple episodes.

The Application is difficult to navigate. I thought I could download the application on the laptop but it doesn’t have one for computers. It constantly freezes and I it gave a hard time to download a link. It had to cancel my subscription.

They banned me for five days saying the host blocked me five time when I was the host

I’m about fed up with this podcast host. Lately nothing will play. The indicator just keeps spinning. I’ve tried multiple stations and once in a while something will load and play. I’ve updated the app, restarted my phone and still the same problem. I literally have to locate what I want to listen to on Spotify or Apple podcasts. This was my favorite app to use until this started. The layout makes it easy to find everything. I’m afraid I’m about to delete this app.

Had some issues with the sounds a few times but overall I enjoyed using this app.

Please work on a dislike button for some of the shows, so We can also let you know which show needs to be reviewed and removed

love love love it 🙏

I enjoy this app a lot!! It is so easy to use and is very helpful when I am trying to edit my podcast!

I’m so excited to have found this app it’s helping me to express myself in many ways ! I also feel comfortable talking about my business and introducing good services.

This app needs a good search feature that allows the user to search for SPECIFIC episodes within a Podcast brand. For instance: Now Playing Podcast has hundreds of episodes, and being able to search for a title or keyword would be very helpful. Do that, and I'll give you 5 stars. 8/23/17 update: the app will randomly crash and I'll have to open it up and search for what I was listening to again. Then I can restart the podcast episode. Second update 9/26/17: I’m getting an error that says “Error Opening File”. I can only play back downloaded Files. Podbean has also not implemented a search feature to be able to search within a podcast. I lowered my rating from four stars to three stars 5/27/25: now has a search feature, but removed CarPlay feature. Now no CarPlay icon. Removed a star for that.

Podcast stops then the station resets losing whee I left off

Thank you for brother Moore Sr.’s teaching!

Podbean works great. I don’t miss a thing.

The best place to get all the most recent podcasts!!

I first started using Podbean because there was a guy doing a Bible study on it, but since then I’ve found several others and use it quite often. It’s a wonderful tool to be able to listen to teachings of all kinds as I go about my day and is very easy to use.

There is not a way for me to delete the podcast I don’t like off of the recent list. I don’t see my history anywhere.

I used Podbean for 3 months and I enjoyed some features but had difficulty using the software to meet my goals, as well as struggling with their limited refund policy. Positives: posting to multiple platforms, organizing episodes, managing multiple podcasts. Monetization which is not something I decided to use. Negatives: expensive, only yearly options, limited refund policy (first 7 days which is not long enough to determine if you like the platform or not). Editing options on the mobile app are extremely limited and unusable. Uploading and editing was extremely tedious. The editing ai was extremely expensive and limited. The focus on monetization is evident in how the company operates, how they want their customers to operate, and how they treat their customers. Because they focus so much on monetization their quality is subpar, especially regarding the content of audio. They also don’t offer video media options for podcasts which is frustrating and limiting. Recordings cut off after a specific time frame and you loose content from the cut off. If you accidentally delete content it’s gone forever. This platform was not worth the money at all. I was very disappointed. I would not recommend this platform especially if you are just starting out and looking for ease of use and to create quality content.

This is the app you have been looking for.

Has a wide variety of shows and is always up to date with the latest podcasts.

I love the offerings on Podbean as well as the user friendliness of recording my own podcast

Love how easy it is to use. Non cluttered appearance and great search feature.

Good

Great access to all my favorite podcasts

Awesome topics: strong vocabulary and metaphors! Wonderful delegation

Finding all sorts of helps.

Podcast addict is a much better app.

This application is super easy, and understandable, for those who are just starting to become Podcasters or who are wanting to just listen to podcasts

Excellent content!
