Hey fellows, hope you’re enjoying the app! Let me know if there is some issue or improvements to do. All the feedback are very welcome!
So the application is just released and it requires a lot of stuff to do to be better than now. There are some plans what I wanna bring to life in the very beginning.
Allow listening to the podcasts without login.
For sure, it’s quite nonsense to provide personal information just to listen. I really love my users and don’t want them to feel frustrated at the very beginning.
Authorised access should be for the commenting, the recording or the broadcasting podcasts only.
Add an option to make a private podcast.
For now, by default, all the podcasts have public status. That was easy to implement at the first stage but I can clearly understand the importance of this feature. And soon you will enjoy three additional settings:
- Make the podcast private (no broadcasting).
- Restrict the commenting.
- Allow joining for the co-hosts only.
Settings page.
It’s actually a much more complicated step from the server-side perspective but also very important too. On this page I have to implement changing and saving these options:
- search settings
- additional user info
- privacy settings
The Report Podcast page.
Unfortunately, not all the words are pleasant. And from time to time shit happens which we can’t leave as it is. This app has to become the safest place for everyone!
Podcast rating.
To help everyone find the best content and provide instant feedback to the broadcaster.
Ability to change the playback speed
History page
Saving podcasts for offline listening
Automatically update the app
Languages.
At this moment, the app supports only the English language. Russian is the next one. Then, little by little, I’ll add much more.
Mute button.
Yes, currently you can’t pause the recording/broadcasting so I have to change this situation soon.
Add the comments to the archived podcasts.
I think it just makes sense.
Upload/import podcasts from different sources.
Switch between co-host and audience.
Increase the number of co-hosts.
It’s really huge amount of work really, and you can help me by donating to grow this project via PayPal https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/kolyuchii
Thanks!
