Why is there no "next" or "previous" episode button for Podcasts?
Why is there no "next" or "previous" episode button for Podcasts?
The short and to the point answer is because the Podcast app is now designed to be as frustratingly complicated as possible!
I wish I was joking.
However - all is not lost! Bear with me while I explain.
What you cannot do:
As I'm preparing the steps below, it is finally beginning to make sense to me. I have however, owned this iPod almost eleven weeks and I'm only now realising how to do this! I've been using the Podcasts App from day one! Well - attempting to...
How to play one Podcast after another (play next). Find a friend - and get that friend to read out the following steps while you complete them. (Again, I really wish I was joking!)

(Note that when I set this up for this explanation, my list of episodes included one with a cloud next to it, in other words, one that was not downloaded onto my iPod. I dislike this intensely! It's confusing!)
You Can:
While playing your "station", tap-and-hold any other Podcast episode and select Play Next. But note that that is exactly what it will do. I think that after that episode has played, it will continue from where you left off.
Well I'm exhausted now...
Can you let us know here (with a typed reply) whether this helped. I'm not concerned about points, I actually want to know whether you found this helpful - or not. If this doesn't work, let me know. Perhaps I can then I can modify it for other people.
It shouldn't be this complicated.
