ذكرنا سابقًا أن جوجل كانت تخطط لإغلاق تطبيق Podcast الخاص بها في أبريل 2024، ويبدو أن الوقت قد حان. وفقًا لمجلة Forbes، سيتم إيقاف تطبيق Google Podcast رسميًا في الثاني من أبريل. وقد يأتي هذا القرار مفاجئا للكثيرين، خاصة وأن التطبيق وصل إلى 500 مليون عملية تحميل […]

After April 2nd, users in the U.S. who have subscriptions to podcasts on the Google Podcast app will need to find an alternative platform. Moving subscriptions may not be a straightforward process and could potentially expose users to security risks. In-app notifications have been sent out to remind users about the shutdown and urge them to make necessary arrangements.

One option for those looking to continue listening to their favorite podcasts is transitioning to the YouTube Music app. Google claims that YouTube Music offers a better overall experience for both fans and podcasters with unique features like community interaction, content discovery, and audio/visual capabilities.

To transfer your Google Podcast subscriptions to YouTube Music, follow these steps:
– Visit the Google Podcasts app
– Select Export subscriptions at the top of the screen
– Choose Export under ‘Export to YouTube Music’
– Tap Transfer on the YouTube Music app
– Click Continue
– Access your subscriptions in the Library once the transfer is complete

Keep in mind:
– Allow a few minutes for your subscriptions to transfer
– Some podcasts may not be available on YouTube Music, showing a “Content is unavailable” message
– If a podcast is missing, you can save it using the show’s RSS feed link

While Google Podcast will no longer be available after April 2nd, users have until July 2024 to migrate their subscriptions to YouTube Music. Make sure to complete this transition before the deadline approaches!
