An anonymous reader shares a report: Google now has its own podcast app called, well, Google Podcasts, and if you have an Android phone, you can head over to the Play Store and get it right now. Google Podcasts does most things you would expect a podcast app to do. It lets you subscribe to and download podcasts; it learns from your listening history and suggests new ones you might like; and, if you're a podfaster, it lets you speed shows up. Most of these have been things you can already do right from within the Google app on your Android phone -- but now you get a shiny new app to do it with. For Google, the app represents an ambitious goal: to double worldwide podcast listenership. "Releasing Google Podcasts is really about making audio a first-class citizen within Google, in line with our mission to organise the world's information," said Zack Reneau-Wedeen, product manager for Google Podcasts, in an interview with BuzzFeed News. "In the last few years, we've seen a huge explosion in the creativity, variety, and the quality of podcasts available. Google says it currently has no plans to release the podcast app to Apple's App Store.
