Artwork and titles change with each chapter as you listen, and a chapter list lets you jump around.

Sort your shows

Private sync

Your subscriptions sync across your Rokus with a five-word passphrase. No email, no password, and your list is encrypted so only you can read it.

How to get it

PodPlayer TV is coming soon to the Roku Channel Store.

On your Roku, open Streaming Store (or Search) from the home screen.
Search for PodPlayer TV and choose Add channel.
Open it and start listening. Your account is created for you automatically, with nothing to sign up for.
To use the same list on another Roku, go to Settings there and type your five-word passphrase (the first three letters of each word are enough).

Your privacy

PodPlayer TV doesn't ask for your name, email, or any account details. Your subscription list is encrypted on your Roku with your passphrase before it's saved, so the server only stores data it can't read. The passphrase itself never leaves your Roku. Podcast searches pass through our server to the Podcast Index so the API key stays private, and we don't save them or link them to your account. Delete your account any time from Settings.

Keep PodPlayer TV free

PodPlayer TV has no ads, no subscriptions, and doesn't sell your data. It's built and run by one developer, and donations pay for the server and future features.
