S-T Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Question for Android users: Is there a podcast app that allows you to load old MP3 files as a podcast? I have a bunch of MP3 files saved on my computer (including a bunch of Earth-2 podcasts) and it would be nice to listen on my phone in a podcast app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 Might not be exactly what you are looking for, but I've been using doubleTwist for a while now. It is a general MP3 app, but I manually load all my podcasts on my phone and it works wonderfully for me. Free & Premium versions are available, but the free version is really good.

Missy Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Would VLC work? I use it to watch videos on an Android tablet, and it does play MP3s as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davedevil Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I use Pocket Casts for that. It lets you save MP3s onto the app and plays them like regular podcasts. There's also a $0.99/month subscription if you want more customization like custom thumbnails for saved MP3s, but I do just fine with the free version.

S-T Posted July 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Thanks guys. Do the apps mentioned above allow you to pick up where you left off if you need to take a break? Some of the podcasts I have are pretty long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davedevil Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Pocket Casts does that, yes. And if you want to bookmark timestamps, Podcast Addict is good for that. I don't think it logs the MP3 into the player the way Pocket Casts does, however, so you'll have to find the file on your phone if you want to listen to it again.
