For reference, for the people saying I shouldn't raise my price:

Pocket Casts: $40/year
The Podcast App: $37/year
Castbox: $35/year
Castro: $25/year
…
Overcast: $10/year

I have no problem telling everyone this now: I'm raising my price in the near future.

I've only waited this long because I wanted to give you some new stuff at the same time!

@marcoarment charge whatever you like but if you expect people to be willing to pay, you still need to address usability and even function in the new version of the app. Like AirPlay is just broken right now and that’s traditionally the way I listen to a lot of podcasts. I was happy to pay for the app in the past but I have canceled that recently because it’s become such a mess. Apple Podcasts (free) beckons.
