ABOUT Google Podcasts reached an important milestone in play store: half a billion downloads. The app is part of Google search but has its own place in android. A simple and efficient player offers the ability to find and listen to the latest podcasts you subscribe to, download them for offline playback and create a listening list. The Browse tab allows you to see a list of shows and episodes that may be of interest to you.

While Google Podcasts’ playback and discovery tools aren’t as robust as competitors like Pocket Casts, the app is a useful and simple tool for anyone who loves podcasts.

With half a billion downloads, Google Podcasts outperforms most other podcast apps, with the exception of apps like Spotify that have both music and podcasts.

Add-on on YouTube Music

However, it is interesting to note that the company recently announced that YouTubeMusic it will also support podcasts. This could mean that in the future, Google Podcasts won’t be the company’s only podcast app, but for now the two platforms will be separate. Initially, YouTube Music will only support US podcasts, while Google Podcasts will continue to cater to other audiences.

The fact is, no matter what happens in the future, Google Podcasts has reached a milestone. Half a billion downloads is an impressive number and shows that Android users appreciate a simple and user-friendly podcast app.
