Apple Podcasts is a dedicated media player developed by Apple for the browsing, subscription, and playback of podcasts in iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS.
History[]
Official support for podcasts was first introduced by Apple Computer in iTunes 4.9 for Mac OS X and iPods in 2005.[1]
A dedicated Apple Podcasts app became available for iOS on June 26, 2012, superseding the feature in iTunes.[2] It was later included as part of macOS Catalina (10.15) and is also available for iPadOS, tvOS, and watchOS. Support for paid podcast subscriptions was added in 2021.[3]
