Why you’re a raving fan?
I like using my podcasts app for easy listening and organization within a nice interface. The app keeps everything in one place and doesn’t force me to dig through iTunes or various websites from which the podcasts stream. It’s easy to download, user-friendly, and has simple but useful features such as “skip ahead 15 seconds” buttons and the like for ease-of-use. This is especially helpful for people like me with big fingers who often hit the wrong button or can’t seem to scroll ahead to the appropriate stopping point!
