Hi Richard, You would think this can be turned off or on in Settings, but I also can’t find it. However, if you start playing a Podcast and tap on the “Effects” button you can see if it is turned on there and you can turn it off if it is on or on if it is off. Also, if you go to Settings and look for “SIRI Shortcuts” under the Advanced heading you can set up a SIRI shortcut to turn on and off Smart Speed. There are also many other options for setting up shortcuts, you can set up one for example for playing, pausing, skipping and rewinding etc. I just set one up for playing and called it “Play Overcast”. There are also SIRI Shortcuts you can set up for each of your Podcasts, e.g. if you have subscribed to Applevis you can tap on it and record a phrase like “Play Applevis on Overcast”. The one reason why at one point I really tried to use the Apple Podcast app was because it works with SIRI, now with SIRI Shortcuts and Overcast already having implemented this feature there is even less reason. Now I just wish Audible would allow users to set up SIRI Shortcuts so I could say “Play Audible”.

I didn’t even know there was a $9.99 annual subscription option for Overcast and certainly as a Voiceover user I never saw an ad. Here is the information from the Downcast page on the canadian App Store, take off about 30% for US prices, e.g. the $3.99 purchase price is probably $2.99 US: Price $3.99 In-App Purchases 1.

Re: Most accessible podcast app?
Which ones of these, Downcast or Overcast is free? I don’t have balance in my Itunes account so as to buy as of now. The native podcast app is OK, but it wouldn’t hurt to try out another alternative just in case, especially because on the iOS native podcast app, I can’t figure out how to unsubscribe myself from podcasts!

RE: Most accessible podcast app?
If anybody else want to write the developer of Overcast to request that the episode length is spoken if you have it set to stream only, here is the direct email for feedback: feedb...@overcast.fm<mailto:feedb...@overcast.fm> I just sent the following message: Hello, I am a Voiceover user and have had my first iOS device in 2009 when Voiceover was first introduced. In those days I started out with the iCatcher Podcast app, then I used Downcast for a while and while I tried Apple’s Podcast app, I have now been using Overcast for many years. I know that a lot of other blind and visually impaired users also really like your app and I’d like to thank you for making it so wonderfully accessible. However, just today the discussion about Podcast apps came up on the Google list “Viphone” where about 2,000 blind and visually impaired users of iOS devices discuss iOS, Apple hardwear, accessories and of course apps. One list member pointed out he preferred Downcast because it allowed for more customization options between global and per-Podcast settings and also that if you chose to stream your Podcasts that the length of the Podcast was announced by Voiceover. I noticed that with Overcast you either have to download the Podcast to hear the length or you have to start streaming it before you can see how long it is. If the length of the Podcast can be displayed by Downcast I assume this information is available and it would be great if this could be changed in a future update so that along with “streamable” Voiceover would also announce the length.

You are correct, I just tried this with Jonathan Mosen’s part 2 about his smart home and as soon as I started playing it and the dfirst few bars of his intro music played I stopped it and went back and it now said “55 minutes”. I must admit though that this information if it is available for Downcast would be nice to also have included in Overcast.

Re: Most accessible podcast app?
Yes but the episode has to be downloaded before it will say that. So all would hear is 107 the final episode in this series, Jonathan Mosen's Smart Home, October 8th, until I download the episode then it will say 55 minutes. > On Oct 14, 2018, at 4:58 PM, Richard Turner > wrote: > > In Overcast, when I flick to an episode, I hear: for example, 107 the final > episode in this series, Jonathan Mosen's Smart Home, October 8th, 55 minutes. > > And with the smart speed feature, it would be less. > > I don't know if Downcast just puts the time sooner, but the length of the > podcast is listed. > > Richard > > > > “Definition of an expert: An ex is a has-been and a spirt is a drip under > pressure.” – Bruce U.

Re: Most accessible podcast app?
Thanks, Richard and Maria, I think the reason why I'm not seeing the length of episodes in Overcast is because I stream them. In Downcast, you can see the length regardless of whether you stream or download, and I do some of each. Richard, am I right in assuming that you download your episodes in Overcast?

Re: Most accessible podcast app?
Hi all, I use both Overcast and Downcast, but personally I have a slight preference for Downcast. I love the Overcast effects which have been discussed earlier in this thread, but with Downcast I really like being able to see the length of each episode before I start to play it. I am subscribed to far too many podcasts, some in each app, and I would love to know how to check the episode length in Overcast in order to make maximum use of time. I freely admit that my preference for Downcast may have a lot to do with familiarity. I like to be able to stream some podcast feeds and download others, and at the moment I can't remember whether this is possible in Overcast. Downcast has a lot of individual feed customisations, such as the number of episodes to keep, when to refresh the feed, etc. I think they're both great apps.

RE: Most accessible podcast app?
Yes, absolutely, I think while iCatcher is accessible, most people use Overcast or Downcast and I think more use Overcast. Not sure what Larry found is lacking in terms of customizations in Overcast, but one thing it has which Downcast doesn’t have is this Smart Speed option which really does work and makes a difference. I don’t listen to Podcasts that much, but Overcast displays at the bottom of Settings how much time you saved with that feature and I just saw for me it is 94 minutes.

RE: Most accessible podcast app?
I also prefer Overcast, I really like their feature where you can compress silences/small pauses during speech and you can set the speed to 1.25x which makes it just ever so much faster without it sounding too fast and between those two features a 1 hour Podcast only takes about 40 minutes.
