Simply cannot log in to Pocket Casts on my Pixel Watch 4.
-
AS of 10/16/25 I have the latest versionsof both the Pocket Casts app on my phone and watch. I tried the steps in some other post about airplane mode, disabling cellular on the watch, signing in and out on my mobile. I only continually get the message that it will sign in if I have latest version on my mobile and phone.
Changing my Pocket Casts email to a gmail address is not an option.
Am I copletely out of luck here? Why is there no option to type an email and password on the watch itself?

Well, nevermind. I was able to switch my lifetimePC account to Gmail so I’m logged in. Would be nice to have another login option in the future if I don’t want to use a Gmail account.

Can you share the process for changing your email account to a Googe account?
I have a Pixel Watch 3 and was also pretty annoyed at this.
My media player interface on the watch also shows the title of the NEXT podcast in the queue when playing…. do you have the same issue?

Hi there, @mickes70! It sounds like you have a Pocket Casts with an email address, but would like to use Sign in with Google instead. Is that right? In this case, your account email should already be associated with a Google account. On Pocket Casts if you’ve signed in with email, you need to log out. Then, on the log in screen select the Sign in with Google option. Follow the prompts to connect your Pocket Casts account to the Google account.
If you need to change your current email to a different one before connecting to Google, please follow this short guide.
If you meant something else let us know so we can get you the correct info. -
Thanks for the information!
I followed those instructions (on my phone app), and I’m now logged in with Google, but it removed my Plus subscription and changed it to a Free account. How can I get Plus back?
Thanks.
