Bring your podcasts to PurerPodcasts
Keep the shows you love. Bring your subscriptions into PurerPodcasts, or start with a few favorites while you get to know the player.
We make PurerPodcasts. This guide explains our approach and the tradeoffs to consider.
You don't have to move everything at once
PurerPodcasts is a free podcast player for iPhone and Android. Find a familiar show, follow it, and try your normal listening routine. A subscription is only needed for automatic ad skipping and transcripts on selected feeds.
When you are ready, you can import subscriptions using OPML or add RSS feeds. Keep your old player until you've checked that the shows you need are available.
Move subscriptions with OPML
OPML is a file containing a list of podcast feeds. If your current player offers an OPML export, use that to save your subscription list.
- Export the subscription list from your existing podcast player.
- Open PurerPodcasts' OPML import feature and select that file.
- Review the feeds and any private-feed classifications before completing the import.
- Check the imported shows in your library, then choose which feeds you want to enable automatic skipping for within your plan.
Menu locations and supported options can vary by app version. If you cannot find the import feature, ask us for help with your device and app version.
Adding a private RSS feed
If a podcast membership provides a private RSS URL, you can add a supported feed to PurerPodcasts. Keep that URL private: it may contain the access token for your membership. You still need the publisher's subscription or permission to access its episodes.
Not every exclusive podcast is supplied as an RSS feed. Check the publisher's delivery options rather than assuming every platform-only show can move to another player.
What transfers to your new player?
An OPML import brings a subscription list, not a complete backup of another app. Don't assume it transfers downloaded files, playlists, listening history, playback positions, or paid memberships.
PurerPodcasts is available on both iPhone and Android. That does not mean purchases or progress automatically sync across the two platforms. Check your current account and store options before changing phones.
