Great podcast player! Yeah, it's not 100% smooth all the time, but the issues are not regular and way better than the rest!

Amazing! Simple 1-touch syncing by WiFi (no slow, painful waiting like on other better known apps) auto-refreshing playlist, 2x play speed. Seemed like such basic functionality until I switched to the Garmin world. Thought I’d have to switch back until I found this app. Such a relief! I’ll even accept the browser-based interface.

App isnt currently compatible with the Epix Pro. I contacted the developer and got no response.

Great app, very useful, nice controls. If free version would include changing speed of podcasts (as piad version does) it would be just perfect. Paid version is just too expensive. And one bug: when you want to skip forward podcast for 30 sec. and you are less than 30 sec. before the end of a podcast, it starts the whole podcast again from start (it is not marked as played). It should start the next podcast.

I've used Runcasts for years. I even became an early subscriber, although I don't typically make monthly payments to subscription services. I love the portability of downloading podcasts to my Fenix 6s instead of lugging my phone on long treks and being tethered to WiFi or data. I don't get bored with the Runcasts selection because there is an incredible variety of podcasts, and the number of episodes available is epic. Podcast series often start with the first episode that was produced several years ago and continue to presently released podcasts. The developer continues to improve his software and is super responsive to customers. I reported a minor bug on a Sunday evening. Mr. Harris responded by email at 0400 Monday morning and had the bug fixed before I returned home from work Monday afternoon. He then sent another email to let me know the bug was fixed. I highly recommend this developer and this app.

Just made the switch from the Playrun app. This app is FAR AND AWAY better.

This app is great! I was initially a bit disgruntled about the £5 pcm charge, but actually I think it’s quite reasonable given the amount of use I get out of it: it’s the first podcatcher I’ve ever stuck with and regularly used for as long as I have this one, on any device (watch or phone). Given that this is always going to be a relatively low-volume product, it’s reasonable that a subscription model is the only sustainable way for the developer to make a decent return while ensuring ongoing support and improvements. No app is perfect (and I've contacted the developer with some feature requests with this in mind), but I would highly recommend this one!

I use this app on nearly every run, a couple times a week. I absolutely love it and have been a paid user for over a year. After initial setup, and occasionally adding new podcasts, I don't have to think about it at all. I know as long as I charge my watch at night, updated podcasts will be on my watch and ready to keep me entertained on my runs. Highly recommend.

I've been using it for years and it's fantastic. They do all the things right, making it fast to keep feeds updated by using their own servers, and having an easy interface. A few things that I wish took fewer clicks/menus, but there's only so many buttons so I understand.

Good app. A little expensive - if anyone else produces a cheaper alternative that still allows sped-up playback I'd almost certainly give that a go, but given the limitations of the watches (i.e. the need for speed adjustment in the cloud) it does the job. One easy improvement would be to display the current time of day on the sync screen. There have been a few awkward moments when I've been asked the time while syncing and have had to concede that my amazing, crazy-priced smart watch can't tell me the time for another few minutes!

Price of Premium must be down to less than 3$.

The advertised podcast wasn’t available, never got the app to work before the free trial expired and now I don’t want to pay $5/month to listen to free podcasts.

Некоторое время пользовался с удовольствием, но сейчас при синхронизации с часами, Оттягивает на часы список новых подкастов, То есть связь есть, но потом выдает ошибку синхронизации. И что я ни делал, все впустую. Напрасно потраченные деньги на подписку и сырое приложение.

The only Podcast app for Garmin that allows more complex setups like listening different podcasts from the beginning. Why is every other app limited to the latest episode or requires manual playlists? Runcasts works fine, syncs seemlessly and gets the most out of the limited Garmin platform. Great work! I still would prefer an open source app without being bound to a provider, but for now, there really is no alternative.

Impossible to use. Podcasts don’t pause when standard garmin notifications, like laps, heart rate, speed, etc

Awesome app with a very responsive dev to boot.

By far the easiest way to manage and listen to podcasts on your watch. I've totally replaced my phone app with this one. Had some problems with syncing to my Fenix 7 initially that was fixed promptly. Support was very good!

Перебрал всё остальное для подкастов , куча проблем, неудобно слушать подкасты, закачивается с глюками. А это приложение просто безупречно, видно что вы разрабатывали под свои нужды, разрабатывали люди которые действительно этим пользуются и хотели сделать так как нужно сделать. Спасибо огромное! Очень удобно
