I was starting to be convinced that the podcast player Castro were abandoned, after nearly a year without updates or explanations on the blog what was going on, which is very unusual for an app on a subscription business model. And yet, just a couple of days ago, an update hit the app store.
As can be expected, the list of changes is significantly longer than the list of changes of previous updates. The changes themselves are certainly nice improvements, but nothing game-changing. And I’m still puzzled why so much time had to pass between updates.
I stopped using Castro in late summer of 2022, when the last update was already suspiciously long ago 1 . After a short stint with Overcast , I reactivated my old Pocket Casts account and haven’t looked back since.
