I just upgraded to IOS 6. Podcasts are no longer in the Music app, but in their seperate, terrible, laggy, featureless (including no ability to create a playlist) app.
Because podcasts aren't in the Music app, I can't add podcasts to playlists, which *****. How are we supposed to make a list of podcasts while using the Nike+ stuff now?
Can I add podcasts to a playlist? Please tell me this isn't as bad as it looks.
I have the same problem. Cannot add a podcast to a Music playlist on the iPhone. And the Podcasts app does not even have a playlist fuction. That is a serious loss of functionality for podcast listeners.
At least in iOS6 you could uninstall the useless Podcast app and then be able to put podcasts in a playlist with music. For the love of God, who decided that preventing us from mixing podcasts and music was a good idea? Why do I need an app to listen to what is, essentially, just another audio file? And when will they fix this?
Agree totally. Apple obviously not paying any attention to this forum. Seems all iOS focussed and uninterested that people mix and match songs and podcasts. Plus I dont necessarily want to download every episode of any given podcast - with iTunes you can be selective about what you keep and what you dont.
So with 30, 50 million iPhone users and most uninterested in this issue I suspect we have little hope of a response.
Podcast Playlists in IOS6?
