Overcast for iOS Updated With Smart Resume Feature and 24-Hour Auto-Delete Option
(MacRumors iPhone)
 


Overcast for iOS reached version 4.1 today, adding a handful of noteworthy features to the popular third-party podcast player. First up is Smart Resume, which aims to reduce the impact of playback interruptions. With the new feature enabled, podcast playback jumps back a few seconds after the podcast has been paused, to help remind the listener where they left off in the conversation. Smart Resume, which is on by default, also intelligently adjusts playback so that it resumes in the silences between spoken words wherever possible. Users can control the feature from Overcast`s Nitpicky Details menu. Also new in v4.1, Overcast can now be set to auto-delete podcasts 24 hours after playback is completed. Previously, episodes could be auto-deleted either immediately after listening or not at all, but now users can leave a day-long delay before their removal, and the threshold for deletion will be paused during extended offline periods such as long-haul flights. Elsewhere, passwords for private podcast feeds can now be entered into the Add URL screen (rather than via HTTP Basic Auth) and a number of bug fixes have been implemented, which should result in less download fails and playback stalls, and no glitches when resuming playback after quitting in the background, amongst other improvements. Lastly, iPhone rotation support has been removed from Overcast 4.1, due to the function`s extremely low usage coupled with the burden of peculiarities that comes with coding in support for iPhone X displays. Overcast 4.1 is available as a free ad-supported app for iPhone and iPad from the App Store. [Direct Link]Tags: Overcast, Marco ArmentDiscuss this article in our forums
