Lysten is a light-weight and privacy focused Podcast Player. We don't collect any analytics or metrics, your Podcasts and episode progresses are synced using your private iCloud account. This means that there's simply no way for us to see what you follow, listen to or anything else you might do in our app.

Share episodes and shows with anyone, irregardless if they have the app downloaded or not. Any iPhone and iPad user will get an AppClip to get them started listening right away.

Features:

No registration, sync is made using your iCloud account
Extremely lightweight, no 3rd party libraries or assets
Podcasts and Episodes are indexed in Spotlight
Privacy focused
Written in 100% SwiftUI

Lysten - Podcast Player 1.1.0 Update

2023-10-06 Version History

- Adds AppClip support. You can now share Podcasts & Episodes with other users. If they have an iPhone or iPad Lysten will be installed and the linked content will be shown. Pretty cool! - Share buttons have been added in context menus, podcast view and in the player - We removed the fullscreen player, the player is now always "floating" and can be moved around - Easier to search and find podcasts in the new search view - You now follow podcasts from the Podcast detail view. We think this makes it much more intuitive. - You can now import your shows from other Podcast apps. Simply export an XML / OPML file and share it with Lysten. - Improves performance by downscaling images and caching them locally - Fixes a weird bug where we only showd 2 episodes in "The Talk Show" by John Gruber. Sorry John. If you happen to read this, ping us on mastodon and we'll get you a beer. - Makes the podcast name selectable in the large player Thanks for taking the time to read our release notes!
