Onboarding experience is sooooo good. I signed in with Twitter, which is my main communication platform. I'm super satisfied with exposing me to people to follow and the suggestions for content were dead on 👌.
Next step was getting into the app. Being used to Overcast, it felt super cluttered on the playlist screen. Seeing the iconography (heart, comment, send, download status) made everything feel messy at first glance. After being a user for ~an hour, I love seeing the ❤s for each episode. Still not immediately interested in commenting/sending. Not a bad thing - just an FYI on my gut feel as a user. I am curious: who sees comments? All users? Just my friends? That's not obvious.
When I click on a podcast, the detailed list of everything is really nice. One minor thing: when I click the icon of the podcast, I expect to be sent to the list of past shows of the podcast. Right now it gives me a bigger icon 🤷. Expectations are hard 😄.
