Podcasts keeps stopping

[tanson1011]

Podcasts keeps stopping! No matter what podcast I listen too. I use headphones to listen while I work. Have to keep grabbing my phone with my dirty hands to play again. The pause play button on the headphones won't play the podcast again.
Used pocketcast now trying beyondpod and still podcasts are pausing.

While on the podcast topic, while I receive a call both the caller and the pod audio plays simultaneously. Really frustrating

I seem to have that problem with iHeratRadio doing that.

Check out the BeyondPod forum and ask your questions there. I've used that app for about the past 3-4 years now and they've always been very helpful for me when I had issues with it.

For the shutting off periodically, it could be one of the settings that will pause when you receive things like messages, or email updates or any other notification on your phone. I know there is a setting for that. I did just notice today the issue with a Podcast continuing to play when taking a call. I'm sure there's some setting in there, or perhaps a not so known bug you and I have discovered that's causing that issue.

It happens at random. No notification will come through. Like I said been doing it with 2 different podcast apps.

Was told that Samsung aggressively closes apps in the background. Therefore podcasts apps are being closed while listening to podcasts. What a sh1tty experience.

Wonder if using a different launcher would work.

By chance, do you have XFINITY connect installed? If so, try Uninstalling it and seeing if that fixes it.

I am using Stitcher podcast app every day on my way to work and home. I don't have any issue at all. I also use audible and not having any issue.
