    I’m conflicted about that one. My favorite player, by a large margin, is Pocketcasts and I haven’t liked Apple’s podcast app in the past the multiple times I’ve tried it but this feature would be legit useful.

      Exact same boat. Pocket casts has been my app since it came out. I can’t live without closed captioning on tv so wondering if this will be cool in podcasts

        I also love PocketCasts, but the transcript feature persuaded me enough to make the full leap to Apple Podcasts. It’s so well implemented.

        The rest of the app isn’t as intuitive and simple as pocketcasts, but I’ve gotten used to it and it doesn’t feel too awful lol.

          I pretty much listen to podcasts in order from oldest to newest so I haven’t seen any transcripts yet. Supposedly they are doing (adding transcripts) to all new episodes and old episodes will be filled in over time. I don’t know why I’m just really anal about it even if it’s just science stuff I feel like I always have to listen to stuff in order of release…
