How to set up podcast syncing for iPhone
I am having problems syncing my podcasts with my iPhone the way I would like. I have synced my podcasts with my iPod before to where my iPod will only include the unplayed podcasts. However with my iPhone I've set the settings the same but already played podcasts keep reappearing on my iPhone and/or they also disappear from my computer. I've set my computer settings to keep all the podcasts until I choose to delete them however since I've started using/syncing podcasts to my iPhone they seem to appear and disappear randomly. I'm sick of redeleting podcasts I've already heard from my iPhone and sick of redownloading podcasts I want to have on my computer. Any suggestions would help. Also I've tried syncing my podcasts between my computer and iPhone over wifi and USB cable but the results are the same, they don't sync like I want. iPod sync still works fine with only the unplayed podcasts appearing on it.
iPhone 5s, iOS 10.0.2
