  Hi. Another happy pocketcasts paid-up user here.

  I’d like for the New Releases filter/view to have an option to hide episodes from any podcasts that are set for any auto-UpNext or auto-queue.

  In my case I have my higher priority podcasts set to auto-UpNext, so when looking at the new releases view, I don’t need to see all those podcasts on the list. Only those without auto-download/UpNext enabled.

  Thanks, Stu.

  Hi @studeimus!

  I’ve gone ahead and added a vote for it on your behalf. For context, we’re a small team, and votes on feature requests help our developers with prioritizing which features to build next.

  I came to make this request too.

  I have a few podcasts which I pay for, and so I get the releases in my paid feed. I still subscribe to the old one as a matter of support (not losing a public subscriber)

  Maybe that doesn’t matter & I should just unsusbscribe, but I’d rather be able to exclude certain feeds from “new releases”, maybe by putting them in a particular folder, etc.
