Played episodes are not saved as In Progress

Hi @igortara4a4b3d6a3! Do you want episodes that you’ve completed to still be considered “in progress”? If so, would creating a new filter that included both “in progress” and “played” episodes help?
If that doesn’t help, I’d be curious to hear more about the difficulty this is causing you.
-
Sorry, I’ve put explanation incorrectly.
Some episodes which I have started to listen, but did not yet finish, are not shown in In Progress
-
Ah, I understand now. Thanks for clarifying.
When you say “are not shown in In Progress”, I assume you’re referring to your “In Progress” filter. If that’s not what you mean, just let me know.
Does this happen all of the time or only some of the time? If it doesn’t always happen, have you noticed any patterns in when a played episode does or does not show up as in progress?
For example, does it only happen with certain podcasts, or with downloaded episodes, or with user files you’ve added to Pocket Casts? Also, does it happen regardless of how much of the episode you’ve listened to?
Hopefully, getting some more information about what you’re seeing will help us find the issue.

It happened for several episodes in different podcast channels already. I cannot determine the pattern. It is possible that I had started to listen those on one device and continued on another. Not sure though. In any case, the progress of how much each episode was played already is synchronized well.

Episode doesn’t show up in In Progress regardless of how much of it I’ve listened

Thanks for the clarification, @igortara4a4b3d6a3!
Can you let us know the devices you are listening on so we can run some additional tests from our side? Also, is Pocket Casts up to date on all of your devices?

Those are Asus Zenfone 9 running Android 13 and Sony Xperia X Compact with Android 8
is Pocket Casts up to date on all of your devices?
It was at the time when I observed the issue

Hi again, @igortara4a4b3d6a3!
Thanks for sharing the additional information with us.
The first thing to check in a case like this is whether you are subscribed to the podcasts which are not showing up. Filters require that you are subscribed to the podcast in order for them to be listed. Can you please check on that?
In addition to that, please also check if any filtering options are selected that could be causing the episodes to be excluded. For example, the release date filtering is set to “last month” by default in that filter.
If you check the above and confirm that is not the case, please keep an eye for any patterns that you notice relating to this. That should help us figure out what is causing this to happen on your end.

This was the case. It wasn’t obvious to me that tapping on the downwards arrow near the filter name would reveal additional filtering options. Setting “Release date” to “Any time” have helped.
Thanks!

Awesome! Happy to hear that we were able to help.
Feel free to create a new topic if anything else comes up!
