Precise sleep time setting to avoid end ads

App version: 3.11.0

Problem you may be having, or feature you want:

Many story podcasts have jarring ads at the end of the episode. Being able to fade out a podcast at the exact second before the ads begin would actually allow the user to sleep and not be woken while listening to an episode at night.

E.g. podcast episode lasts for 30mins. Ads begin at 27mims 30secs. Sleep time[r] setting is set to fade out at 27mims 29secs.

Suggested solution:

Checkbox in Sleep interface enables a field allowing the user to set a specific fade out time (mins:sec) within that podcast episode.

Hi @SteveK,
Welcome to the AntennaPod forum!
Did you know that for each podcast you can set ‘Auto skip’, specifying the number of seconds that should be skipped at the start and the end of a podcast’s episodes? This should also work in junction with sleep timer :slight_smile:
