Apple Watch: Auto Download from specific playlist(s)

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’d like to see Apple Watch support be expanded to allow the user to specify a specific playlist to Auto Download to the watch.

    I subscribe to a LOT of podcast feeds, and tend to skip a significant number of episodes that show up in the “Up Next” playlist because I’m not interested in whatever the latest episode might be (e.g. an “interview” based podcast like Marc Maron’s WTF, where I really have no interest in whomever he’s interviewing in the latest episode). I dont want these episodes to audo-download to my Watch. I’d much rather specify a custom playlist just for Apple Watch downloads, so I can tailor which podcasts auto-download to my Watch, instead of just whatever the last 3-10 episodes in the “Up next” queue may be.

  • @melorama That’s a great idea!

    I’ve put your suggestion on our feature requests list. Our developers will consider it for inclusion in a future release. The more requests we get for a particular feature, like yours, the higher its chances of getting built. So, if other Pocket Casts users also ask for this feature, it’s more likely to happen.

    Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions!
