I’m just relieved I can keep my web apps.

Excited to try transcripts for podcasts. I installed the Apple Podcast app a few weeks ago to get ready for this…

I’m conflicted about that one. My favorite player, by a large margin, is Pocketcasts and I haven’t liked Apple’s podcast app in the past the multiple times I’ve tried it but this feature would be legit useful.

Exact same boat. Pocket casts has been my app since it came out. I can’t live without closed captioning on tv so wondering if this will be cool in podcasts

I also love PocketCasts, but the transcript feature persuaded me enough to make the full leap to Apple Podcasts. It’s so well implemented.

The rest of the app isn’t as intuitive and simple as pocketcasts, but I’ve gotten used to it and it doesn’t feel too awful lol.

I pretty much listen to podcasts in order from oldest to newest so I haven’t seen any transcripts yet. Supposedly they are doing (adding transcripts) to all new episodes and old episodes will be filled in over time. I don’t know why I’m just really anal about it even if it’s just science stuff I feel like I always have to listen to stuff in order of release…

I am in the EU and have updated to 17.4, however I don’t see these things that are mentioned (safari popups for browsers for example, alternative app stores in settings…) do I need to enable something?

You are physically located in the EU as the time of trying, correct. That matters.

You need to be in the EU geographically, plus have an European based Apple ID account. If you’re visiting the EU it won’t show up.

I’m in Poland. Have Polish Apple ID. Only what I’ve got, is just a selection a default browser when I first launch Safari after update. That’s all.

Yes I am. I live there. But there was no pop up in safari. (Or anywhere else for that matter)

Interesting.

It only asked me the first time I opened Safari.
