Question

Podcast categories not displayed any longer

Hi,

since yesterday when I open itunes on my computer (Windows 10), the podcast categories are not displayed any longer (music categories, audio book categories etc are still visible though). But even when I select a certain podcast and click on the categorie that it is listed in, I am redirected to the main podcasts overview page.

This is a screenshot from the main podcast page, and ther used to be all the categories in a dropdown below the word "podcasts":

Thanks for your help!

Windows, Windows 10

This is also happening to me but on iPhone.

The podcasts app app is working fine but when I select the categories option on the ‘Browse’ tab, I’m presented with the title ‘Categories’ and a blank screen below (picture attached).

Okay, so now the category are displayed again - but once you click on one, they are only displayed as "Bestsellers of all times" and you are not able to sort them by date published, which it used to be.

I have contacted itunes because of this issie. They told me Apple removed podcast categories and now the only thing one can do is sending feedback and complain...
