Pocket Casts Now Available for Windows Phone

Extremely popular podcast client Pocket Casts is now available for Windows Phone. Having been available for iOS, web and Android for a long time now, this podcasting client is my personal favourite and it only gotten better with new updates and designs. Today, it is out for Windows Phone to help you have your podcasts in sync across devices.

Shifty Jelly, the developers behind this amazing app had teased their Windows Phone debut a while ago. Cross platform syncing, auto downloads, variable speed options, podcast discovery are only some of the best features of Pocket Casts. Here is their feature list from their app description on the Windows Phone store.
