lost sleep timer on podcasts with IOS9

It seems to be a bug. Tap he screen in the lower left where the cresent moon should be and the menu opens

First tap the name of the Podcast. That brings you to a second screen. Either you have a cresent moon in the left corner or tap where it should be.

This is the screen you're looking for, from the iPad User Guide.

Thanks that helped. But really, why didn't they leave well enough alone. It's a terrible "upgrade."

You're welcome. It looks simple enough to me. Tap the title of the podcast in my second sreenshot. Then tap the cresent moon in the screenshot from the user Guide.

MY ipad 2 does not have the moon icon.

WOW APPLE REALLY SCREWED UP PODCATS, WHY SO COMPLICATED????

Actually, now we call these arbitrary nonsensical changes "downgrades" and the verb is "downgrading"

Make sure you're in the right page then tap the empty space where the cresent moon should be.

the menu kept flashing on/off, anyhow, thanks for the reply, I did finally get it to work.

You're welcome. Please be sure to send Apple feedback about the problem.

Thanks. I have the sleep timer on my iPad but not showing on my iPhone so I tapped bottom centre and up popped the sleep options.

THe million dollar question is whether it will stop at the or move on the next podcast! 😕

You're welcome. It should stop at the one podcast. Hopefully. 🙂
