Mimir is designed and developed by a lone developer in Colorado that has a passion for podcasts. I hope you enjoy listening to podcasts the same way I do with Mimir!

One-Time Purchases
Mimir offers a one-time purchase to unlock Mimir Pro for your macOS devices. Mimir Pro includes silence skip, custom skip sounds, voice boost, and Continuous Playback. This allows users to make a single purchase for an enhanced app experience without being tied to a subscription.

Purchasing Mimir Pro will unlock features for all macOS devices using the same Apple ID. Mimir Pro for iOS is purchased separately.

Subscription
Mimir offers two subscription plans that unlocks Mimir Premium with access to all features of the app on both iOS and macOS. Choose from a monthly plan or a discounted yearly plan that can be cancelled at anytime. Purchasing a subscription will unlock all the features of Mimir Pro, removes ads, and also unlocks Mimir Premium on iOS.

A subscription plan helps me pay for the 3rd party services that are used to offer features such as recommendations, search, and curated lists. As a solo developer, a subscription plan allows me to keep these services paid for which keeps Mimir on the store since they are a constant cost. Thank you for understanding and supporting independent development!

a very small feature idea

Coming from old iTunes-based podcast listening. I use a non-Apple mp3 player (I don't carry a phone, long story). Since Apple's Podcast app is so over-simplified and user-hostile, and its display of information is so graphic based (I prefer dense text), I gravitated quickly to Mimir. I've only used it three times, but so far so gool

Suggestion: I'd like to restrict the display of recent episodes of each podcast, to say, the ten most recent. This lets me focus on relevant items, yet still maintains high density of information.

Thanks for the app! I'm considering upgrading to Pro, but want to use it a while longer.

Excellent podcast app

I’m giving this app a five star review because it works as expected and I’m invested in its growth since it works on MacBook and iOS with syncing.

Pros: without paying or subscribing for pro, the app handles syncing between different devices. Subscribing the small amount a year gives you a fully unlocked audio engine that does silence skipping and other excellent additions. Well worth the price of admission.

Cons: no CarPlay system built in. This was the one thing that was making me hesitate subscribing but opted to go for it anyway since playing a podcast still shows in CarPlay’s Now Playing platform. It’s not a full substitute but it works if you set up a long enough playlist ahead of time. Hopefully CarPlay is included in the near future.

Neutral: on occasion as I play a podcast, the progress bar will sit at the end as if the podcast has finished playing even if it hasn’t (it will continue to play despite what the progress bar displays). I put this as a neutral because I don’t know if this is a bug caused by the Critical Role podcast’s files or if it’s a bug from Mimir. I don’t see this happen with the other shorter podcasts I listen to.

Overall: this is a podcast app worth giving a try. I’ve tried a bunch of others and this one is head and shoulders above the other top apps out there.

Developer Response ,

Hello, and thank you for the wonderful review! I wanted to let you know that CarPlay support is definitely on my roadmap for a future update, and the episode getting suck at the end of the timeline is indeed a bug. The good news is I have fixed this bug and am currently beta testing a new version of the app that will fix this issue and add some new download features.I appreciate you giving the app a glowing review while I continue add new updates and fix issues!

Continued Bugginess Holds Mimir Back

I really like the layout and design of the Mimir app. Unfortunately it continues to have bugs that make it a less-than-ideal experience.

For example, when opening the app in CarPlay, the “Now Playing “ app often won’t play; a work-around that sometimes works is to manually play the next podcast episode, than go back. Another example: when managing podcast episodes (especially if you’re managing several at a time), the player interface may freeze momentarily or not reflect your changes. This often necessitates restarting Mimir. All of the little quirks together add up to an often frustrating experience.

Finally, I like the recent swipe interface changes to play next/last, and Mark as played/remove from playlist. That said, I’d like to see that expanded to the Now Playing/Next screen instead of only being accessible within each individual podcast.
