The Pocket Casts webapp, packaged for the desktop.
Pocket Casts is one of the best podcast / podcatchers out there. This is their webapp packaged as a desktop app. The actual webapp itself is the official code from Pocket Casts/NPR. This snap was packaged by Ricardo N Feliciano (FelicianoTech).
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
For versions of Ubuntu between 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr) and 15.10 (Wily Werewolf), as well as Ubuntu flavours that don’t include snap by default, snap can be installed from the Ubuntu Software Centre by searching for snapd.
Alternatively, snapd can be installed from the command line:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
