Having an issue with both Podverse and Fountain (doesn't happen with Podcast Addict).

I tap the option to download an episode (and the episode appears to download) but at some point while listening in an area with poor cellular service, playback just stops.

Not sure if the apps aren't really downloading episodes or if they're just arbitrarily deciding to stream them instead of playing the local copy.

Fountain resumes playback once cell service returns but Podverse throws an error symbol and has to be killed and restarted to resume playback.

I’ve had this issue too. It seems like the apps need to phone home to work. I’ve asked Mitch at Podverse about this and he said PV should switch to offline mode but it never works.

PodcastGuru is my goto for offline listening. It even has a tab for it.
