Anybody recommend a minimal podcast app that works well on eink?

I use Pocket Casts. It’s not really minimal at all, but I’ve had no big issues with it.
Other users are having challenges with podcast apps stopping playback immediately when the phone is lost, but with Pocket Casts this only happens after ~20 minutes, so it’s not terrible. Will see if others suggest any better options

However, this phenomenon of background playback stopping doesn’t seem to necessarily occur in every configuration. I personally use AntennaPod, and playback has never stopped for me. Neither after 50 seconds nor after 20 minutes. (This also applies to music playing in the background, by the way. At least for me so far.)

I have been using pocketcasts with no issues, too, but just wanted something that looks better!

I use AntennaPod.
I had one situation when podcast stopped after a few minutes but it happened only once. I did not change anything and this issue didn’t reoccur.

I use antennapod too and love it!
However, weirdly playback does stop about 15 seconds after the screen turns off.
