I’ve never had it auto play (which is fine by me) BUT I do have to go into the queue and select the podcast I was previously listening to. It used to keep the currently playing podcast on the now playing screen so all you had to do is hit play.

I can confirm the same - annoying - behavior.
I’m sure (or better: I hope) that authors will soon solve this problem. 😃

Same here. It’s not a modern car with Android auto un my case but an older connecition to the phone vía bluetooth. And every time I stop the car to refuel or anything, the podcast won’t resume automatically, I’m forced to do it from the phone itself which is annoying.
This does not happen with other apps, would be nice to have it solved

Any update on this? It seems to be a pretty basic UI requirement for most people.

There is a 3.3 release which will partially address this bug. Release date to be determined still.

Thanks. I see that it was updated to 3.2.0 a couple of days ago, so looking forward to 3.3.

You won’t believe how much I’m waiting for the solution (probably in version 3.3). It isn’t very pleasant on Android Auto. Because it doesn’t autostart, you must open AntennaPod, list and search for the file in the queue, and press play. If you have a longer list in the queue, is this step also dangerous, and Android Auto usually disables clicking for some time.
Thank you authors in advance.

If you join the beta there is a workaround that helps.
