Marco Arment Releases New Podcast Player App Called 'Overcast'

Marco Arment, the creator of Instapaper, has released 'Overcast', a modern, fully featured podcast player with useful features and an intuitive interface.

A powerful yet simple podcast player, with features such as Smart Speed, Voice Boost, and Smarter Playlists to help you listen to more podcasts in more places, try new shows, and completely control your experience.

Features:
- Download podcasts for playing anytime, even when offline.
- Search and browse for new podcasts, plus get recommendations from Twitter.
- Create custom Playlists with smart filters and per-podcast priorities, and rearrange the list whenever you want.
- Receive optional push notifications when new episodes arrive.
- Subscribe to a podcast, or just add an episode: try new shows without committing.
- Download podcasts over cellular, set a sleep timer, or use Voice Boost to enhance and normalize speech volume. (Included in Unlock Everything.)
- Adjust playback speed, and use Smart Speed to pick up extra speed without distorting the conversation. (Included in Unlock Everything.)


Note: Some features are locked or limited. The single "Unlock Everything" in-app purchase unlocks them all for $4.99.

You can download Overcast from the App Store for free.
