v2022.7

Changelog - August 28, 2022

Android 13 improvements

Android 13 has just been released. For now, only a few Google Pixel devices can run this new version, but with this release, Podcast Addict is starting to support some of the new features introduced in this version.
For example, the app will now support the Per-app language functionality. You can go to the device's Settings/Applications/Podcast Addict screen, and select the UI language of the app if you want to use different language than the one set on your device.
The app also support Themed app icons. This means that the app icon will be displayed using your theme colors.
Other minor improvements have been made to better support this new Android version, with more to come soon.
