A podcast and its downloaded episodes in PulsarCast

Hear every voice clearly

Voice Boost evens out volume. Pitch-corrected speed keeps people sounding natural, while Smart Speed trims silence and tracks the time you save.

Ready before you are

New episodes download in the background. Listen offline, sync progress and downloads, and automatically clean up finished or older files.

Playback, your way

Chapters and links, sleep timer, configurable skip buttons, per-show speed, intro and outro skipping, and a queue you can reorder at any time.

Every screen, in sync

iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, CarPlay, Android, Android Auto, widgets and the web. Start on one device and continue on another.

Alerts that respect you

Choose which shows can notify you, mute any podcast, or let an Ultra smart list alert you only when a new episode matches your rules.

Looks like your app

Light, dark, AMOLED, sepia and Liquid Glass looks, custom accent colors, alternate icons and controls you can hide when you want less.

Good to know

Questions, answered

Is PulsarCast free?

Yes. Core podcast listening — search, following shows, lists, downloads, offline playback, queue, chapters and more — is free. Ultra is optional and adds AI tools, advanced automation, personal audio and web access.

Does PulsarCast show ads or track me?

No. PulsarCast has no advertising and no third-party trackers, and we never sell your data. You can use the core player without creating an account.

Can I move from another podcast app?

Yes. Import an OPML file to bring your subscriptions across, and export them again whenever you want. You can also paste public or private RSS feeds and Spotify show links.

Which devices are supported?

PulsarCast runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Android, with CarPlay, Android Auto, widgets and a web player. A free passwordless account keeps your library and progress in sync.

How does a web subscription unlock the apps?

Subscribe with your email, then sign in to PulsarCast with that same address. Your Ultra entitlement follows your account across supported Apple, Android and web devices.

Can I cancel Ultra whenever I want?

Yes. A web subscription can be managed from PulsarCast's billing portal, and an in-app subscription from your App Store or Google Play account. Cancelling stops the next renewal.
