Subscribe to podcast RSS feeds — Podder auto-downloads new episodes to your music library, in the background. No account, no ads, no tracking.

     

• 📡 Subscribe to any podcast RSS feed — with OPML import/export
• 🔄 Background auto-sync — new episodes download automatically (optional Wi-Fi-only)
• 📁 Visible downloads to Music/Podder — your music apps and file manager can see them
• 🎚️ Quality control — keep the original file, or re-encode smaller (128 / 64 kbps) with ffmpeg to save space
• ▶️ Built-in player — resume, playback speed, and background playback with lockscreen / notification controls
• 📤 Share to Podder — send a feed or a direct audio link from any app
• 🧹 Storage cap — auto-prunes the oldest downloads to stay under your limit
• 🔔 Notifications and per-episode durations
• 🔓 100% open source — no account, no ads, no tracking

Requirements: Android 7.0+ (64-bit). Not on the Play Store.

1. Download podder-<version>.apk from the latest release.
2. Open it and allow install from unknown sources if prompted.
3. Launch Podder, paste a podcast RSS URL, and tap Add.

Paste a podcast's RSS feed → Podder lists its episodes. Turn on auto-sync in Settings and it quietly checks your feeds in the background and downloads new episodes to Music/Podder, so they're ready offline and visible to every music app on your phone. Play them in the built-in player (with resume and speed) or anywhere else.

./gradlew :app:assembleDebug      # build

• Podcasts only (RSS feeds) — Podder is not a general video / YouTube downloader, by design.
• For personal use; please respect podcasters' feeds and bandwidth.
