How about having your podcast list automatically organized by content? Say hello to Smart Folders! Available now on Android 7.85, iOS 7.85, and coming soon to web, our Smart Folders feature takes all your followed podcasts and groups them into folders based on their content.
Why Smart Folders?
Smart Folders will revolutionize the way you manage your podcast library! Your podcasts will automatically be grouped by content, so you’ll never waste time searching through endless shows to find what you’re looking for. Everything you love will be neatly organized and easy to access. It’s the perfect way to keep your podcast list tidy. But don’t worry, if you’re not a fan of some suggestions or want to make adjustments, you can easily edit your folders just like you can with the ones you create.
