@chrisdoran70 @tonywalker23 @overcastfm Are you listening on multiple devices? It seems as though deletes don’t sync across devices.

@josephwagner @chrisdoran70 @overcastfm yes correct. Phone iPad and two Mac’s.

@tonywalker23 @chrisdoran70 @overcastfm I think what is happening is you play an episode on one device and the Overcast deletes it on that device and updates playlists on all devices. But the episode doesn’t get removed from storage on other devices. That’s why you’ll see wildly different storage amounts across devices.

@josephwagner @chrisdoran70 @overcastfm I know nothing about making apps, but that makes sense. my temp solution is ever so often on each device delete all downloads and redownload all. the other bug I hope gets fixed is playlists order. have a playlist with hourly news prioritized so it is at top of list, the rest of the list is oldest to newest. but new episodes get put in the middle of the playlist instead of at the bottom.

@josephwagner @chrisdoran70 @overcastfm it appears to have for me also. there are still a few stragglers but I haven't had time to give it much attention today. im going to delete all downloads from all devices then redownload all and see how that goes for a few days. for me, that just leaves the "special" playlist I have that isn't working right. set up so that hourly news go to the top, below that is everything except one sorted oldest to newest, and 1 low priorirty (4 hours long is why) last
