Disappointment. As good as TAL is, this is embarrassingly bad. Only slightly better than listening online. I can listen to all episodes, BUT I have to search manually for every single episode, scrolling down through several hundred every time. I also cuts out unexpectedly and then I have to go back to the same scrolling. Downloading function seems to work for me. Why can't TAL make their entire collection available on good podcast apps since they can't seem to create a good way of listening?
completely unreliable. awful app.
Really wish there would be an update for this app. I love This American Life, and want to listen to more older episodes - but there are so many bugs, and it's hard to use!
Whether I listen directly from the app stream or download to my device, it won't remember my location when I stop listening and return to it later. It takes me back to the beginning of the episode every time...super annoying. Thinking there must be something I'm doing wrong, or a setting I need to change, I reached out to support. They never responded. The problem persists.
It's never really worked right. I love the show but the app is wonky
I loved this app when I first downloaded it in 2020. Since then it is not showing any new podcasts. I've tried looking at setting or other features. I've tried uninstalling, then reinstalling it again. It is exactly the same. It's a shame because I really enjoyed listening to the podcasts.
Occasionally buggy, search could be better but overall it is a functional player for the greatest podcast/radio archive ever.
The app is completely broken:( nothing works on it.
No working for me when I download or i press play nothing is happening. Bummer because I was really looking forward to the next episode. That is the reason why I installed the app on my phone because the other apps do not have this episode yet. Desapoinating. I did uninstall and reinstall by the way, still nothing. Let me know if you have a bug fix. Thank you.
