Apple Podcast bug means no new episodes for some titles although there is a simple workaround\u060c<\/p>\n

\n

Remember Apple's TV ads for the iPhone 3G? The ad would tell you, whatever problem you need a solution for, \u201cThere\u2019s an app for that.\u201d When you think about it, for any topic you're interested in, there's a podcast for it. And if you're an iPhone user, you probably use the Apple Podcasts app<\/a>. But until recently, the app encountered a serious issue that prevented users from listening to the latest episodes of certain podcasts stored in the user's library.<\/p>\n

The bug prevents the latest episodes of affected podcasts from appearing because these episodes will not be automatically downloaded. This means that these podcasts will not appear in the Up Next queue. If the user knows that a new episode of a podcast they follow has been deleted, the episode can be discovered by searching for the new episode in the app's search tab. But many podcast app users rely on being alerted by the app whenever a new episode is ready and thanks to the bug, that doesn't happen.<\/div>\n

Follow the workaround listed below to get the latest episode of a podcast you follow if it is affected by this bug.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It's unclear how many podcasts are affected by the bug, but complaints on social media seem to indicate the problem is widespread. And there is the aforementioned workaround. Open the Apple Podcasts app and after tapping the Search tab at the bottom right of the screen, enter the name of the podcast you want to hear the latest episode of and tap the blue \u201csearch\u201d bar next to the bar of space on the virtual QWERTY. keyboard. Tap the Episodes filter above the search results (which is also below the search bar) and the latest episode will be at the top of the list. Just press the play button to the right of the list to hear it.<\/p>\n

You may not have to do this for much longer, as some users report that they now automatically receive new episodes to their Apple Podcasts app. If so, that's good news. Otherwise, try the workaround until your Podcast app works perfectly again. Besides, if you don't have the application on your iPhone, click this link to download it from the App Store<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
