Have used it for a couple years, three problems: 1. Rewind (e.g. by 10 seconds) performs terribly, apparently pulling from network instead of just bumping back in the audio file it already has cached. And if I want to go back say 30 seconds, I can't just hit the button three times. #1 problem because I haaaaate this :) 2. No lock screen widget ( Android 12 on Samsung Galaxy S10e). 3. Can't add shows via URL / RSS feed, rather I need to get the content creator to jump through Stitcher's hoops :(

I have used this app for less than a year and it's very frustrating. I had added a bunch of episodes to my queue only to have them all cleared off a couple weeks later. Thankfully this hasn't happened again, but it ALWAYS cuts off my podcasts if I go off the app. For example, if I go to answer a text or look something up (maybe that was mentioned in the podcast!?) the audio stops. It even goes back by about 10 seconds. Very inconvenient.

Overall love it. Only complaint/feedback is about how shows are saved in your library - as far as I can figure out, they can only be listed with thumbnails without an option to be listed with the full titles instead of thumbnails. This makes it hard to read them unless you memorize what your saved shows' thumbnails look like. But generally think it's a great user friendly app with good content.
