Why did you post that?
I've been using the standard iOS podcasts app forever now and I've run into a very specific kind of automatic playlist that I want to build but am not able to. I'm totally open to paying for one of the other podcast apps but I want to be sure I can make this kind of playlist as well as my usual playlists and I'm having a hard time getting confirmation of the options available within those podcast apps.

The troublesome automatic playlist is 1 podcast, with the Unplayed episodes sorted from oldest to newest limited to only the next 5 or 10. That last bit is the most important. In podcast.app I'm stuck with only being able to choose All Unplayed Episodes or some number of Recent Unplayed episodes :\ a lot of my podcast listening to going through the entire backlog of podcasts and while I can listen like this by going to the podcast's feed it's super annoying to have it attempting to download all of the past episodes because I forgot a setting or something when I subscribed.

The other playlist which I have currently set up just fine is "all of these podcasts, only the Unplayed, oldest to newest" but since I have already listened to the full backlog it really becomes "this week's video game podcasts, in order". This works fine but only because I've already listened to all of the podcasts from those feeds..

Also the app needs to be able to subscribe to account/password protected podcasts, which I think one of the really good podcast apps cannot do. Sorry to be so weirdly specific (but this is better than haircuts right????). If no app actually does this I would be surprised but fine with that. Thanks goons.

I've never used it, but in the app it says you can import media via iTunes, 3rd party apps, or url. So, yes.

Notes Plus has legit AMAZING pen/inking feel compared to all other iPad apps. It includes calligraphy practice templates and several different styles of pen to work with. It's great for general notetaking as well.

It's got an iPhone app. It works, but selecting a project to apply to the timer can be a pain. Not my first choice to use the phone client, but it works.

I prefer the desktop client, personally.

Whenever I screw something up (forget to start, hit stop, wrong task name etc.) it's super easy to edit. That's a big plus which helps with the clumsiness, for me at least.

The website says you can only export with a paid plan. Would prefer a free alternative or a one time payment instead

I don't think it lets you draw on the screen, it's more of an illustrated guide.

Yes, thanks. I get the notification that there is a new message, but have to open the app to see it. Even if just a thumbs up, it says I received a sticker.

How are in-app purchases handled for family sharing? I'm getting conflicting responses from Google as if the way has been changed over time. My son wants to get the Minecraft Story game which is free, but has in-app purchases to unlock the next chapters. I have on my account, $50 in Gift Card credit that I would like to use to purchase the chapters for him. If I purchase them on my account, will be have access to download the chapters?

We have separate App store logins so that way our Apple Music libraries are separate (that took me a long time to figure out how to do that...) so I am not very interested in just having him use my app store login.

To my knowledge, IAPs do not traverse to people in your family.

What you can do is login to their phone using your account, download the app and unlock the IAPs, then log yourself out.

It’s really dumb to have to do this, but c’est la vie!

Can't he just buy the IAP from his son's account because it would just charge the family owner's account aka the $50 credit?

Despite only knowing one person who uses iMessage and they don't play Nekoatsume, I would still totally pay for a sticker pack.

Maybe they'll do one to promote the launch of the movie coming in 2017.

Yeah, it looks like it doesn't work that way, sorry. I could have swore it did with the family thing I have set up

quote:

iTunes Store credit isn't shared with other family members. If the family organizer has a credit on their account and another family member buys something, the cost of that item doesn't deduct from the organizer's iTunes Store credit, but bills the payment method that the organizer has on file.
