Store description excerpt
Parasocial is free. Introducing PARASOCIAL, a podcast player by Super Simple™ Your one-sided relationship should be a joy, a distraction, a lesson or a call to action. So why do so many podcast players get in the way? Some lack essential features. Others were never meant to be podcast players at all. So we built a blazing-fast, feature-dense, always-in-sync podcast player that gets new episodes the second they exist. Now, with sharing and curation at the center. Open it, and you are back in what you were listening to, at the second you left it, even on another device. Press play and Trim Gaps takes the air out of the conversation: two hours of talk hands back fifteen or twenty minutes, and it still sounds like a conversation. The new episode you were waiting for is already there, because our server is told the moment a show publishes. No account necessary. No ads ever. No invasive tracking. This is a podcast player for listeners who love podcasts. LISTEN, CURATE, AND SHARE PODCASTS Secure your username and any playlist can go public under it. Anyone with the link can follow and listen as you do. Gather shows into a collection and share the set as one link; followers get the shows, not a snapshot, so it never goes out of date. The Curate tab holds everything you follow and share, with Discover underneath: public playlists and collections from every listener on Parasocial. THE FEATURES PLANTS CRAVE 1. Lightning-fast episode recognition. No more refreshing while the other guys poll for new episodes 2. Studio Sound adds crisp audio processing: warmth back under the voice, a decibel out of the band that makes phone speakers tiring, then gentle leveling for uneven talkers. Works even while an episode is still downloading. 3. Trim Gaps studies each episode before you play it, then closes the gaps in the talking while you listen. AND ALL THE ONES YOU'VE COME TO EXPECT 4. Smart playlists from rules: every show, only the ones you pick, or all but a few; unplayed, in progress, or both; newest or oldest first; grouped by show. 5. Per-show priorities, ranked in your order. 6. Force a single episode in or out without breaking the rule that built the list. 7. Auto-download per playlist. New matches queue themselves. 8. Manual playlists, a built-in queue, Play Next, and pinning. 9. Chapters when the show publishes them, tap to jump. 10. Transcripts one swipe from the artwork, cached so reading never interrupts playback. 11. Sleep timer by minutes or at the end of the episode. 12. AirPlay, Bluetooth, lock screen, Control Center, background audio. 13. Share This Moment: the last 30 seconds as a story card or a short video, made for Instagram stories. OMG A LOCAL LIBRARY 14. Reads from a database on the device, not the network, so thousands of shows stay fast. 15. One field searches your shows, episodes, playlists, and the directory. 16. A show's full back catalog, bookmarks, Most Played, an archive, swipe actions, and undo by shake or Command-Z. INSAN
