[nfbcs] Deleting Podcasts in iPhone App

[Ryan Stevens]

Hi, Peter,

I'm not sure how to change the acquisition of podcasts from downloaded to
streamed, however, in the settings, you should be able to indicate that
downloads be automatically deleted after 24 hours. This is how it works on
my iPhone 5s. In fact, it's the default setting. I would think this would
also be available on the 6+. I have not worked with any other iDevices, so I
can't help you there. HTH.

Take care,
Ryan Stevens

Good afternoon everyone,

 

                I have two questions concerning the PodcastApp for iDevices.
First is there a setting to change to tell the device to stream rather than
downloading podcasts? I have quite a number of podcasts and am receiving the
"Storage Almost Full" message on my iPhone 6+. One way to solve this would
be to be able to tell the Podcast App not to download individual podcasts to
the device but to stream them instead. The plan we have would not effect our
monthly charges if we could choose this method keeping an ample amount of
storage available on the device at all times.

 

                Another solution is to go through the podcasts and remove
those I'm least likely to want to hear. How does one do this on an iPhone or
the iPad. I know how to do it in iTunes but want to be able to do it from
our iDevices should we continue to have storage issues. Some assistance with
this matter will be very much appreciated.
