TL;DL The Podcast Player & App

ive casually listened to podcasts for years, but have always been frustrated with podcast apps and the way they’re organized. i can track down the few podcasts i already know, but discovering new ones felt impossible with so many options flooding the feeds. and then theres the problem of podcasts being so long, so i was always stuck listening to the same few podcasts, feeling like i was missing out on the podcast culture that so many rave about, stuck outside of it with no way to get in. TL;DL is the first podcast app ive seen that disrupts the usual model, and does so in very exciting ways. by allowing users to curate moments from podcasts they like, it becomes a hand-picked selection of thought-provoking content that is so easy to jump into and get lost in. ive found more podcasts using this app in a few days than years of using other podcast apps, and thats not even to mention the social aspect, with profile pictures, followers, likes, etc. its like a podcast discovery tool and social network rolled into one, but in a way that seems to encourage the best aspects of social networks, sharing and discovery. would highly recommend this app to anyone even passingly interested in podcasts, it’s a game changer.,.

I hate rating things but this is great. I consider myself an avid podcast listener and the biggest issues for me have been finding new shows and actually sharing them with friends. I’ve tried to share shows in the past but always failed to really find an easy way to share something from an episode that was relevant to my friends/colleagues. Sharing is super simple, it only takes 30 seconds to make a book mark and title it. Then it generates a link you can send to them and they don’t even need the app to listen to it with the link!

I always had a problem when trying to bookmark a certain part of a podcast episode I wanted to listen back to in the future or wanted to share with someone I thought it was relevant to. All the other apps I had tried made bookmarking feel way too time consuming or difficult so I didn’t end up using them. Now all I do is hit the bookmark button And it saves the start time and creates a link I can share to friends. I highly recommend this app and now i’m addicted!

I love tldl because whenever I feel like taking notes from a podcast, I just create bookmarks from within my existing podcast player. I use pocket casts to listen to podcasts and the in-app integration for making bookmarks on TLDL makes saving important things super easy. I can always go back and listen to my bookmarks on TLDL again. I've also discovered a lot of new shows I wouldn't have otherwise, thanks to this app.

I thought this app was ok when it first launched but it keeps getting better with every new update! I can’t believe how fast the team releases new features every week. They even took my feedback of creating a way to subscribe to podcast shows and built it in 3 days! Can’t wait for future updates, this team and app is going places :)
