How it works

Like Letterboxd for podcasts

LISTND is a full podcast player, built around the people you trust.

Moving in

We created a super easy way to export your subscriptions from other apps (like Spotify and Apple Podcasts) that don't allow OPML exports, which used to be the industry standard.

And a way outYou will always be able to export an OPML from LISTND when you want to leave.

Want to listen

This is your listening home! Add episodes to this list from across the app by swiping left on rows in new releases, shares from friends, custom lists and more.

Like a pile of New Yorker magazines, you may not ever get through them all, but at least you'll always have something great to pick up.

The player

Every time you tap an episode to play, you're pulling two cards from an invisible deck below the screen. The top card plays. The bottom card gives more info. You can also connect with CarPlay!
