Version 2.0 is a complete overhaul of the FaithPlay app. It’s built from the ground up to be faster, more reliable, and easier on the eyes.

CONVENIENT NAVIGATION
We moved the navigation menu to the bottom to reduce the number of required taps. Now the menu is always available and within reach of your thumb.

UNPLAYED SCREEN
View all unplayed episodes from your subscriptions in one area. Episodes are sorted by date to make catching up on the latest content simple and convenient.

MY PODCASTS
Podcasts that you’ve subscribed to now have their own dedicated space. They’re easy to manage, sortable, and show how many new episodes are available.

This area also includes a Downloads section. Now you can view all downloaded episodes quickly and in one place.

DISCOVER NEW PODCASTS
The Discover screen is completely new and makes it easier to find more of the content you love. Subscribe instantly to podcasts from this area and browse our top content. Featured podcasts are larger and easier to read with improved horizontal scrolling.

When browsing through a single podcast, the episode length, playback status, download status, and other key details are viewable at a glance.

A BEAUTIFUL PLAYER
Like almost everything else, the player has been rebuilt. It’s more responsive and features a highly-improved layout with beautiful background colors and text that’s easier to read. Plus, now you can subscribe to any podcast you’re listening to from the play screen.

Scrubbing, skip forward/backward, and just about every facet of episode playback have been improved.

NEW MINI PLAYER
When you exit the main player screen, the global mini player attaches to the bottom menu. It features a sleek visual countdown, play/pause button, episode title, and an action menu. It’s yet another way that we’ve made FaithPlay easier to use.
