Fountain 1.2 is live on iOS and Android 🚀 This massive update brings significant design and UX improvements across the app along with a new episode summaries features. Here's what's new: Library Design Update We've made it much easier to navigate between podcasts and music in your library with the addition of the new content-type filters. The Recently Played view allows you to quickly jump back into what you were listening to before and the design of the content cards have been refreshed too. Content Pages Design Update All of the different content pages have undergone an extensive redesign, including shows, episodes, artists, albums, tracks, clips and playlists. We’ve replaced the tab layout with scrollable pages, improved the formatting of show notes and revamped features like chapters and transcripts. Episode Summaries Every episode page now has a Summary button above the show notes. Simply pay 500 sats to unlock a summary, or upgrade to Fountain Premium for $2.99/month to enjoy unlimited summaries. Summaries and transcripts now come as a bundle, and they’re now faster, cheaper, and more accurate than ever before. Playback Improvements We’ve completely rebuilt our audio engine from the ground up. Playback is now more robust and reliable — especially for music. Tracks now play instantly when tapped, and if you're playing an album, or playlist, you can now skip next and previous seamlessly. We've also made some design updates to the player for easier access show notes, comments, transcripts and chapters, and we added a smart resume feature for podcasts. We would love to hear how you’re finding Fountain 1.2. Please submit your thoughts and feedback via the main menu in the app and we will take it on board as we continue to improve the app. Read more:
