Apple has officially launched their standalone podcast application application that was supposed to release along with iOS 6. But lucky for us podcast listeners they decided to release it today instead.

Podcasts iOS Universal

 

Podcasts app is the easiest way to discover, subscribe to and play your favorite podcasts on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Explore hundreds of thousands of free audio and video podcasts from the Podcasts Catalog, and play the most popular podcasts, organized for you by topic, with the all-new Top Stations feature.

As someone who listens to several podcasts almost daily, I find this new app really useful. The app supports both streaming and downloading as well as syncing playback between devices.

Podcasts are amazing and if you’ve still don’t listen to any you’re really missing out! Get to it!
