Hi,

Thanks for reporting. Does the widget show “No media playback” or something else? Did you try removing and re-adding the widget? Have you moved the AntennaPod app to the sd card (using a system setting – I do not mean the media download location).

Thanks for your kind response! Here is my feedback:

• Does the widget show “No media playback” or something else? No, just loading (see image)
  

  

• Did you try removing and re-adding the widget? Yes, several times and rebooting Android

• Have you moved the AntennaPod app to the sd card: No, I don’t have an SD card

Hmm. This is not a loading screen that AntennaPod displays. It must be displayed by your home screen application. Do you use an alternative home screen application?

When creating the widget, does it open a configuration window where you can set the transparency?

Hi there and thanks for your questions. I did try a second home screen and today it works without issue. I’m calling it a weird Samsung issue. I so appreciate your support!
