Airshow

What Airshow is
Airshow is a podcast app for iPhone and iPad that focuses on listening with less library management. Episode pages show metadata, show notes, and chapters containing links and images. You can follow a show and add it to a playlist in one action. Keyword filters can restrict which episodes download, while chapter filters can skip matching chapters automatically. Playback includes speed controls, sleep timers, a mini player, and widgets for the home and lock screens. Offline downloads are supported, as are CarPlay controls for selecting queued episodes and managing playback in a car. Rich notifications can appear in real time when followed podcasts publish episodes. Airshow syncs subscriptions, queues, playback positions, and preferences across devices with a Feedbin subscription at no additional cost. The free plan supports listening without synchronization. Feedbin, Inc. is the listed developer, and the App Store disclosure says the app does not collect data, while noting Apple has not verified that disclosure.
