Founder and operator


Arment was also the Chief Technology Officer of Tumblr and founder of Instapaper before founding Overcast, and he had created his own podcasts before launching the app. In March 2023, Arment told The Vergecast how he built and maintains Overcast by himself, and that he uses ad banners promoting podcasts to cover the costs of the free app.




Features and reception


In 2014, Overcast received positive reviews from MacWorld and iMore. In 2015, The Verge and The Sweet Setup each named it the best podcast app for iOS that year. In 2017, Discover Pods gave an endorsement citing the "smart speed" feature, which shortens quiet gaps in a podcast.
In April 2019, Overcast introduced a feature that allowed users to share clips from podcasts to social media. In January 2020, Overcast was updated to allow users to skip the intros and outros of podcasts.
In March 2021, Lifehacker writer David Murphy reviewed Overcast positively, citing its Apple Watch integration. In 2022, Bradley Chambers of 9to5Mac said Overcast was his favorite iOS player, alongside Pocket Casts, and that Overcast was notable for its audio quality.
