Podcasts stutter since iOS 11.3 update
This is maybe a bug report.
Since the update to iOS 11.3, podcasts will stutter at certain points — most frequently near the beginning of the podcast.
Any comments?

Hello mark louis uhrich,
Thanks for that info and choosing the Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems you are experiencing issues with the Podcast app not playing as expected on your iPhone. If you haven't already, please force close the Podcast app and restart your device as iOS clears cached data and does other system optimizations when you turn your device off and on.

If you're still having this issue with the Podcast app, your next step is to reinstall iOS on your device; this will help us isolate the situation further. Reinstalling iOS should not affect any of your data, but it is always a best practice to make sure you have a current backup in either iTunes or iCloud.

Use the “Update” option and not “Restore” and these steps will reinstall iOS. Keep in mind that these steps were written for a different issue, but they will still help us isolate the situation further.
