Hi there, @ilarranaga! That sounds really annoying! It might be related to your device settings. Here are a few things you can check:
- Make sure you have the latest version of Pocket Casts, and your device OS installed.
- Check if battery optimization is enabled for Pocket Casts.
- Review your device or system’s notification settings and driving mode audio options, if available, to see if they might be overriding Pocket Casts’ audio focus behavior.
- If you recently installed any new apps that control audio or notifications, try disabling them to see if playback resumes as normal.
If you continue to experience this issue, let us know. So we can troubleshoot this further please send the app logs from your device. Go to Profile > Help & Feedback > Contact Support > Get Support.
