I have lots of podcast subscriptions in the podcast app on my iPhone (iOS 14.5.1).
Some of them show a down arrow (I guess it means "download"), but with a small "pause" icon, too.
What does it mean? Does it mean the podcast is not updated by the app?
How can I resume it?
Thanks a lot in advance.
iPhone 12
Hey GabrielZ,
It sounds like you have a question about an icon in the Podcasts app. We'll be happy to help.
This icon means that the download has paused. If you tap the icon, does the download resume? You can make sure that podcasts are downloaded automatically by adjusting these settings: Manage your podcasts library on iPhone - Apple Support.
Let us know if that answers your questions!
Have a great day.

Thanks, yes, I can select "switch on automatic downloads" (or sth. like that) in the menu that appears.
Sorry, I must have missed that earlier (sometimes, when I don't have my reading glasses at hand, I miss such things).
Hey GabrielZ,
No problem at all! We're glad you got that figured out. Reach out if you run into anything else!
Enjoy your week!
In the podcast app, what does the download arrow with a pause mean?
