  Pocket Casts works fine on my Apple Watch and appears in the list of watch apps, however, it doesn’t appear as an option in the Smart Stack (swiping up from the bottom of the screen). I want to be able to bookmark it within the widget that gives you quick access to 3 apps.

  As it stands now we can’t offer a good experience bringing Pocket Casts widgets on watchOS. However, we’ll keep an eye on it for future improvements on the watchOS widgets API.

  I have added your comment as a vote for this feature.

  Any update on inclusion in the Smart Stack? It’s been 2 years so I wonder if this is possible now.
