The player sits at the bottom; click it for the full-screen player. Its Queue button opens the queue panel (The Queue), and episodes with chapters get a Chapters button (Chapters).
Podcasts​
The Podcasts page lists your subscriptions as a grid or a list (toggle at the top). Sort by name (A to Z, Z to A), Most Episodes or Least Episodes, Newest First or Oldest First, Most Played or Least Played, and filter by category. The star on a cover marks it as a favorite. Custom Feed adds a podcast by its feed URL.
Click a podcast to open its page. See Podcast Page and Podcast Options.
Discover​
For You suggests podcasts similar to the ones you listen to, based on your subscriptions, how much you listen to them, and their categories. It's worked out on your server and needs a few subscriptions before it shows anything. Trending Now lists popular podcasts from the Podcast Index, filtered by category.
Episode actions​
Every episode has a three-dot menu with Queue Episode, Save Episode, Add to Collection, Download Episode (and Local Download in the desktop app), Mark Episode Complete, and Play on another device when one is online. Click an episode to open its page with the show notes, chapters, people, transcript and the Share Episode button.
