Feature Request: Multi-tiered Up Next and Automatically Add
-
I’m subscribed to a mix of podcasts. Currently, I have them all set to automatically add to Up Next. And I have built a bit of a backlog, which is ok. But some of the podcasts are news-related, and I want to listen to as soon as they are published. (But still in chronological order.) It’s a bit silly to listen to a show about news that happened a month ago.
So I’d like to propose a multi-tiered Up Next with Automatically Add. I would then be able to add high-prio podcasts at the end of tier 1, normal news-podcasts at the end of tier 2, regular podcasts to tier 3, and so on. The player then first plays all podcasts in tier 1. When tier 1 is exhausted, it starts with tier 2, et cetera.

Thanks for the suggestion, @ffrraannss! I’ve added it to our list of feature requests.
In the meantime, if you haven’t tried it already, you may want to make sure your news podcasts use the “To Top” Auto Add to Up Next position. You can check this under Profile > Settings (gear icon) > Auto Add to Up Next. You can then use “To Bottom” for other podcasts.
I know that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, but it might be something for you to consider.
