To view your listening history on Apple Podcasts, follow these steps:
1. Open the Apple Podcasts App:
- Launch the Apple Podcasts app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
2. Go to the Listen Now Tab:
- Tap on the Listen Now tab at the bottom of the screen (or in the sidebar on a Mac).
3. Scroll Down to Recently Played:
- Scroll down until you find the Recently Played section. This section displays the episodes you’ve recently listened to, allowing you to quickly resume or revisit them.
If you don’t see the Recently Played section, make sure you’re on the latest version of the Apple Podcasts app and your device’s operating system. If the section is still not visible, try the following steps:
1. Check Your Library:
- Go to the Library tab.
- Look through your subscriptions and downloaded episodes. Often, recently played episodes will still be in your library if they are part of a series you subscribe to.
2. Use the Search Function:
- If you remember the title or the podcast name, use the search function within the app to find it quickly.
3. Check the App Settings:
- Go to Settings on your device.
- Scroll down and select Podcasts.
- Ensure that all relevant options are turned on, such as Sync Subscriptions and Automatically Download Episodes.
4. Reinstall the App:
- If the Recently Played section is still missing, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Apple Podcasts app. This can sometimes resolve display issues.
By following these steps, you should be able to access your recently played episodes and continue enjoying your favorite podcasts.
