One of the very few apps that have made their way onto my Kompakt. I am so enthusiastic about CalmCast that I would recommend it to everyone—even to those using a “normal” smartphone. It may not have a lot of features, but it has exactly the few that I need.

I feel much more at ease using CalmCast than I ever did with Podcast Addict on my Xiaomi.

even if i switched to a DAP and i now download my podcasts using mp3 and store them there, this app is one of the best i’ve used and seen on the kompakt.

CalmCast has been an excellent addition to my Kompakt and it’s been wonderful to listen to my favorite podcasts without breaking the mindful flow of the phone. My only complaint is that the app randomly shuts down mid-episode sometimes if I’m doing something else on the phone or have it closed, but it’s a pretty simple matter to open the app again and hit play, so it’s not that much of an issue, though I do hope a future update fixes the bug.

This is one of my all time favorite apps. I can’t say enough about it. I REALLY enjoy using it.

Noice.

One thing: is it me, or can’t you skip 30s by using the forward button on the headset?
