this podcast is great, one of my favorites. dark, audio footage from real interviews, court hearings, body cams. it's great. the app, SUCKSSSSSSS. Episodes will randomly stop, it will log you out for no reason, if a phone call comes in, the episodes will keep playing silently, leaving you to figure out where you left off. I understand losing money to people sharing a private rss, but I'd much rather listen in my preferred app.

like everyone else: this app constantly logs out, which is a major pain when you're a car listener; it doesn't save where you left of in an episode; and it randomly won't play over basic Bluetooth speakers. I get that it's tough to design your own app, but the first app was just fine -- at least it was functional. I'm going to unsubscribe at this point, as much as I love the content.

The Podcast and TV show are amazing. Best true crime content. hands down. This app is beyond infuriating, episodes don't play in order, it just plays random episodes (I did check the sort function). Sometimes the audio pauses itself. Now everytime I pause episode 290, it resumes at the 51min mark every time. This app is just filled with playback issues.

Hi Adam, episodes will play in either ascending or descending order by publish date within the same show, depending on your selected preference. If itās playing episodes randomly, please contact us at support@swordandscale.com with more details so we can look into it.
