Q: New episode of my podcast not showing on iTunes/Podcasts

Hello everyone!

 

I need help with the following problem. On Monday submitted a new episode (the 29th) from my "Podcast do Kioske", but does not appear in iTunes. It is only visible to those who subscribed to the podcast and see it in "Feeds" (then yes, it appears).

 

 

It will be a matter of time or could be something wrong?

 

Thank you.

    It was only posted yesterday morning - 26 hours ago as I write this - so it's quite normal for it's not to have appeared yet.

     

    When you add a new episode to your feed and upload it, it appears immediately for subscribers because their iTunes application reads the feed directly and the Store is not involved.

     

    However because of the huge number of podcasts in the Store (thousands) the Store caches the feed and checks it for updates periodically. For this reason it usually takes 1-2 days for new episodes to appear in the Store: sometimes it can be less, and occasionally the whole process seems to get stuck and it can take several days.

     

    As it's appearing for subscribers you can expect to appear in the Store in the next day or so.
