Ilya: Hey, this is Ilya.

00:00:01.346 --> 00:00:02.216
Arnab: And I'm Arnab.

00:00:02.439 --> 00:00:04.059
Ilya: We are the creators of Metacast.

00:00:04.430 --> 00:00:07.059
We're a small team on the quest to build a perfect podcast app.

00:00:07.933 --> 00:00:09.833
Arnab: Let us give you a quick tour of the app.

00:00:10.481 --> 00:00:13.241
Ilya: The screen you're looking at right now is the episode player.

00:00:13.751 --> 00:00:16.241
It has a transcript that syncs with audio as you listen.

00:00:16.691 --> 00:00:20.201
If you want to read or skip parts of the episode, just start scrolling.

00:00:20.771 --> 00:00:22.931
You can double-tap the transcript to play from there.

00:00:23.351 --> 00:00:27.461
To synchronize the transcript with audio, tap the blue sync button at the bottom right.

00:00:28.262 --> 00:00:31.352
Arnab: When you hear interesting parts, you can bookmark them.

00:00:31.712 --> 00:00:36.272
Just swipe anywhere on the transcript to create a bookmark or copy a quote.

00:00:36.872 --> 00:00:39.837
You can also search the transcript to find relevant bits.

00:00:40.950 --> 00:00:44.580
Ilya: In Metacast episodes are automatically split in the chapters.

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:48.210
Just above the player buttons, you'll see the current chapter.

00:00:48.660 --> 00:00:50.610
Tap it to see the list of all chapters.

00:00:51.210 --> 00:00:54.210
Use it to find interesting topics and skip intros and ads.

00:00:55.022 --> 00:00:57.932
Arnab: Another important feature of Metacast is playlist.

00:00:58.262 --> 00:01:03.182
Follow a podcast and new episodes from it will be added to your Following playlist.

00:01:03.812 --> 00:01:06.392
Think of this as your podcast inbox.

00:01:06.964 --> 00:01:09.124
Listen Later is your listening queue.

00:01:09.757 --> 00:01:12.697
Add episodes to it to listen to them later.

00:01:13.657 --> 00:01:19.717
All your downloads appear in the Downloads playlist and custom playlists are coming soon.

00:01:21.342 --> 00:01:23.262
Ilya: The rest of the app is very intuitive.

00:01:23.652 --> 00:01:26.232
Just remember that everything is a swipe in Metacast.

00:01:26.652 --> 00:01:28.842

00:01:29.202 --> 00:01:30.312
Swipe to download.

00:01:30.642 --> 00:01:31.452
Swipe to share.

00:01:32.487 --> 00:01:34.677
