Podcasts randomly stopping while screen is locked, despite instructions
-
Pretty much what the title says. I’m listening on an S22 Ultra on Android 13. Power saving mode is off. Battery use is optimized for the app. But it consistently stops playing whatever I’m listening to after locking the screen for about 10 minutes or so.

Hi, @ericalansdowne! You mentioned that battery use is optimized for the app, and this is the likely cause of your issue with playback stopping. It’s a common one we see on Samsung devices.
Can you please completely turn off battery optimization for Pocket Casts according to the steps in this guide: Samsung Battery Optimisation?
Please let us know how that goes!

I’ve had the battery settings this way for days and it still crashes. Am I missing something?
