@overcastfm ipad syncing and iPhone syncing completely broken for me.
@overcastfm I am getting "Invalid audio file" more and more when trying to stream a podcast. Then I attempt to download the podcast and it download and plays immeidately.
@overcastfm When you have 60 podcasts in your feed, impossible to know which one has new episodes. Are you planning to bring back the blue dot or some other UI design to the main podcast screen to show that there are new episodes?

@overcastfm It seems like there should be some area around the border of the description should be able to be swiped down on to exit the screen all together.
@overcastfm One UX issue I keep encountering is while listening to a podcast, when I swipe to the second pagination for the podcast description. From there, I can’t swipe down to exit the screen. On larger iPhones, the only option is to use two hands to interact with the small bar at the top or swipe left to the podcast art work screen and then flick down which is inconvenient. Could this be improved for easier navigation? I get for long descriptions you want to scroll, but a flick would help.
@ryantoken @overcastfm The app has to do a better job handling that use case or I won't be able to continue using the product. Downloads get stuck a lot and there are a lot of "weird" ways downloads get stuck and you have to try and reengage the download. In the same environments I have no issues streaming via another podcast, but this version of Overcast, the use case completely breaks for me.
@ryantoken @overcastfm There are lots of bugs on the iPad version too with regards to clicking "i" for podcast info + sometimes it loses the back arrow so you get trapped on a view like "Primary" and then have to hard quit. Performance on mobile has been rough when you have 1 or 2 bars. My primary listening behavior is on the go.
@stevetranby @overcastfm two clicks to download is a bummer. There’s a share icon that should be a download button. No option skip or rewind in the now playing bar at the bottom is also a miss.
