Reviews for Player FM — Podcast App
Crankintosh
Premium has ads
It used to be that if you spent for a premium subscription you could use the app ad-free. They are still charging me the same price for that subscription but the app is loaded with ads anyway in the form of “sponsored podcasts”, “recommended apps”, and now there’s huge pop-up ads again. I’m not going to renew my sub for next year.
