Media Player "snapback" feature?

Hi Folks - Coming from an iPhone, one of the things I do with my phone is (using a car mount) rely on it for playing music and podcasts. On the iPhone there's a single 'button' that jumps your playing media back 30 seconds. I find this feature awfully nice when podcasting to replay something I missed or want to be sure I heard right. Simply using a scrubbing feature to slide back - especially while driving - is a little ugly.

Can anyone recommend a good media player that has this specific sort of functionality?

Thanks in advance!

BeyondPod and Pocketcasts have this feature, either skip forward or back 30 seconds or any time that you specify. I have used both apps for podcasts and prefer BeyondPod overall, but Pocketcasts UI is pretty spiffy.

Both are paid apps, but I'm sure there are free ones out there at least for the podcast side of things.

Appreciate that - I'll have a look at CarTunes.

I don't mind paying a couple of bucks if the functionality does what I need. I'll have a lok at both - thanks!
