Ratings and Reviews
Revised review after most recent updates
Improved user experience. Connectivity and downloads are now working well for me. I much prefer the on demand downloads with this app over the Apple podcast app’s downloads only while the watch is docked.
Doesn’t work for me, great idea
I wasn’t able to download any episodes when connected to phone nor LTE. For whatever reason, I was unable to connect to wifi at home. Downloads took place, but consistently timed out. They were ~50mb files. Otherwise a valiant effort that probably works for most people.
Edit: developer reached out to me and explained that the watch app needs to be open with the screen on in order to download. Unfortunately, I was never able to see this process through as downloads would either stall or my arm would get tired from keeping the screen on.
Developer Response ,
Did you remain within the Outcast app with the screen on? If not, downloads will automatically be paused by the system, often resulting in a timeout. Feel free to email support@outcastapp.com to discuss further!
Awesome App!
Works as advertised! I tried other apps but this is the best one. Very pleased with the functionality and usability of this app, especially considering how new it is and the current limitations for app development on WatchOS. Extremely creative developer and I imagine it will only get better. Well worth the price. Thank you for providing this ‘missing’ piece for Apple Watch!
