Is this really a Google Graveyard body, or is it more that they moved podcast downloads from one app towards another?
> Podcasts on YouTube Music in the US already include access to downloads, background play in places like the car and on smart speakers
It looks more like consolidating competing apps to me.
- alphabettsy 3y agoFor many people, me included, having podcasts separate is a benefit. They’re quite different from music.
- relyks 3y agoI'd consider this killing off because I'm sure the interface will not be the same as the one currently used by the Podcasts app.
- thrixton 3y agoSo background play in _select_ cases. Sounds like another regression like when they removed music sync from smart watches when they killed google music and there was no current or eta for an alternative with YT music. Never again google, not for me. Long live Garmin and Pocket Casts for me.
