What inspires Podcasts to download stuff?

I am trying to avoid installing a third party podcast app, but it is getting harder to do.


I want it to download podcasts only over wi-fi so they don't eat my phone account data allowance. And I would like to to do it automatically - so if the app is running, and the phone has a WiFi connection, then it updates.


Is there an option for this? It seems to start to synch only when it is on the surface, and I often find myself out walking the dog with only the first 4.3 minutes of each podcast. And it is really, really getting on my goat... (Because goats like podcasts too.)



So, in summary:

Is it possible to get the podcast app to keep itself up-to-date automatically using WiFi?

Thank you for your patient, considered opinion.
