Apple Podcasts Web App Now Available on Desktop Browsers
Apple has recently made its Apple Podcasts web app accessible to users on desktop browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Previously, this desktop experience was limited to macOS devices. However, with this update, iPhone users can now enjoy their favorite podcasts on Windows-based desktops as well. This move follows Apple’s launch of the Maps web app in beta, allowing users to access directions, routes, and business listings from their browsers on both smartphones and desktops.
Exploring Apple Podcasts Web App
The Apple Podcasts web app can be accessed by visiting the URL podcasts.apple.com. This web app offers the same functionality as the Podcasts app on Apple devices, enabling users to discover new podcasts across diverse genres such as true crime, news, and comedy. Users can listen to podcasts in multiple languages and explore the top charts to stay updated on trending shows.
Users can access the Apple Podcasts web app via Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and Firefox on Macs, PCs, and other devices. By signing in with their Apple ID, users can see their current podcast listening activity. The web app is equipped with tabs like Home, Browse, and Top Charts for easy navigation. Additionally, there is a search bar in the left panel along with media controls at the top. Users can customize their experience by selecting their region to access location-specific content.
With the Apple Podcasts web app, users can manage their Up Next queue, view saved shows, and explore the entire podcast catalog directly on their web browser. The app also supports paid podcasts for users who have subscribed to them. This seamless integration allows users to transition from listening on their iPhone or other Apple devices to their Windows desktops effortlessly.
If users already have the Apple Podcasts app installed on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac, visiting the website will redirect them to the native app instead of the web experience.
Enhanced Podcast Experience Across Devices
Overall, the introduction of the Apple Podcasts web app expands the accessibility and convenience of podcast listening for Apple users. Whether on a mobile device or a desktop, users can seamlessly transition between platforms to enjoy their favorite shows. This integration further highlights Apple’s commitment to providing a seamless user experience across its ecosystem of devices.
