Multi-select podcasts to “bulk” unsubscribe
-
I have so many podcasts I want to unsubscribe from. I can’t seem to figure out how to multi-select them (the same way I multi-select episodes) so I’m not opening each pod’s “main page” individually to unsubscribe.
I don’t know if I’m missing something obvious or if that’s just not a feature. I hope it’s the former lol. Appreciate any info!
I’m on Android btw. Basic/free account.

Hi, @inboxhjohnson! You’re not missing anything. I’m afraid that we don’t have a way yet to unsubscribe from podcasts in bulk. We do have an open feature request for this, however, and I’ve made sure to add a vote for it on your behalf.

But isn’t there already a developer feature for this which apparently is only revealed if the user builds the app themselves? https://github.com/Automattic/pocket-casts-ios/issues/538

You’re correct. As we noted, we don’t currently have a publicly available, user-facing way to unsubscribe from podcasts in bulk within the app itself.
However, as mentioned in the GitHub issue you linked, there is a bulk unsubscribe option available within the developer menu if you were to build the app yourself.
So, to reiterate:
- For the standard user, there is no in-app bulk unsubscribe feature.
- The feature exists only within the developer menu for those who can build the app.
We understand that a user-friendly bulk unsubscribe option would be valuable, and that’s why it’s an open feature request 🙂
