  The latest iPhone models show Live Activity on the dynamic island when using Pocket Casts. Please allow me to turn this off. This feature is good for immediate access to Pocket Casts. However, it makes it very difficult to navigate to the top of the page when Live Activity is displayed. This is very uncomfortable.

  The dynamic island isn’t something Pocket Casts can control as it’s used to display any “Now Playing” media.

  If you find it distracting, swipe left on the dynamic island to clear out the display.

  Here’s some additional information on how to clear the information from the dynamic island: https://www.macrumors.com/how-to/iphone-14-pro-disable-dynamic-island/

  Oh! Really? I am sorry. I didn’t know it. I hope Apple add the setting to turn off Live Activity.

  No worries! This seems to be a general limitation with the Apple dynamic Island.
