Overcast Podcast App Updated to Version 2.0, All Features Now Free

The podcast player has received new features, including the ability to stream podcast episodes rather than download them.

Popular podcast app Overcast has been updated to version 2.0 on iOS devices, introducing new features to users. In a blog post, programmer Marco Arment announced a new business model for the platform, which removes the paid unlock for specific features.

Previously, users could pay $4.99 to unlock additional features in Overcast, including Smart Speed, which shortens silent moments, and Voice Boost, a voice equalizer. With this update, these features are now free.

In addition, podcast streaming has been added to the platform.
