Is there a way to see the podcast name in the queue?
Right now for me it is showing three lines:
Sometimes it’s hard to tell which podcast it is without tapping on it…
Interestingly, when you do tap on it you also see three lines of info on the top of the screen:
It would be great to have this info displayed in the queue…
Are you unable to see the podcast’s thumbnail image? (If you find the episode-specific thumbnails confusing you can disable the “Use episode cover” option)
A couple of my podcasts change the episode image for each episode. One actually posts a funny meme picture.
This isn’t a huge problem for me, but I can sympathize with the OP.
That’s why disabling episode image in list and use podcast image is a good solution to solve that. When toggle on, all episodes from same podcast will always use same image so you can easily know to which podcast they belong.
Thanks for your replies.
I don’t really want to disable the episode images.
As andben said, some of my podcasts change the image every episode. I think that it brings another layer of immersion. It is a part of whole. In some cases, I’m sure that someone spent a lot of time and effort to create unique artwork for each episode to make it special.
My favorite artwork comes from Jack Rhysider and his Darknet Diaries. Others are: Spooked, Radio Rental, This American Life, and many more.
I feel like I would be missing out if I disabled this option.
I completely agree, and am glad that the episode artwork is still seen when you look at an individual episode as well as when you list the episodes for a particular podcast. The main point of suppressing episode covers is so the podcast is clearly recognized in the Inbox and Queue (as your request emphasizes).
Exactly, the setting is only for lists. The episode specific covers are still shown everywhere else
