Metacast v1.14: Super-fast transcripts and a bunch of goodies!

Released on

New features

  • Super fast transcript generation! Most transcripts are now ready in under a minute! We’ve also made the UX smoother while the transcript is being generated.
  • Timestamps in episode descriptions. You can now tap timestamps in episode descriptions to jump straight to specific segments of a podcast.
  • Metacast podcast links open in-app. Links to Metacast podcasts (like our Metacast: Behind the Scenes) now open directly in the Metacast app. Follow our journey and tap those links to jump right in!
  • Continuous playback toggle. You can now toggle continuous playback in Settings. Start playing an episode or playlist, and it will automatically move to the next one. If you prefer it to stop, just turn this off.

Bugfixes and improvements

  • When searching through a transcript, you can now see the timestamp of each search result, so you’ll know exactly where you are in the episode.
  • Plus, we’ve squashed a few bugs along the way.
