Access to Features Used in the Best Podcast Apps
Shoutem apps offer the same features and functionalities seen in the most popular podcast apps on the market. Use any or all of the following features when creating your new podcast app.
Podcast RSS
Set up an RSS feed for your users’ favorite podcasts. Then, build a podcast directory so they can view, navigate to, and stream podcasts any time of the day or night.
Audio Player
The most critical element of a podcast app, our Audio Player allows users play, pause, and even select streaming sound quality; a helpful feature for those on slower connections.
Background Play
Multitaskers who navigate away from your app rely on background play, allowing them to continue listening to your podcasts while they browse social media or search the web.
Anchor & Co-Host Schedule
Use the Calendar screen to showcase a podcast schedule, allowing users to listen live to their favorite anchors, hosts, and co-hosts, or to preview upcoming podcast episodes.
Radio Listening
Whether you’ve developed a radio station of your own or you just want to stream existing stations, add Radio+ to your Shoutem app to provide high-quality access to any radio station on the airwaves.
Related News
News RSS allows you to auto-publish articles and news items from your website directly to your app. It’s also the perfect solution to help your followers find other experts and bloggers in your niche.
