Podcasts have recently risen from a largely neglected platform to almost the limelight, with a huge number of people interested in their creation and consumption. A great platform for listening to them is the Podcasts app, available across operating systems from the workshop Applu. However, it was this one that started yesterday at iOS unexpectedly drop, making podcast consumption impossible.

For issues with the Podcasts app on iOS users started complaining yesterday evening, with complaints continuing on social media even now. The vast majority of them agree on the symptoms of the problem, pointing to repeated crashes of the application when listening to an online podcast after about two minutes. Interestingly, a website mapping problems with the services Applu does not inform about the problem and neither does he himself Apple he has not yet commented on it in any way. However, it is more than likely that the error is found on its servers after all and causes the application to crash, as it only manifests itself when listening to online content. However, if the user downloads the given podcast, there is no problem with the application crashing.

Unfortunately, since the fault seems to be on the side of Applu, users have no choice but to wait for a fix, which only the Californian giant can do. Until then, if the app crashes while listening to online podcasts, they will have to either accept intermittent content consumption or have to download podcasts to their phones and listen.chat is also offline. However, it can be assumed that the problem will soon be resolved and podcasts will run again without problems, as we are used to.
I don't know who gets what, but... iOS 12 is everything in the teacup.
