private podcast player for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch

MuteCast

Private Podcast Skipping

A private podcast player with offline downloads and local skip detection for ads and repeated segments.

podcasts without the extra machinery

MuteCast keeps the player focused: feeds, playback, downloads, local segment detection, and enough control to make repeated parts less annoying.

RSS and downloads

Subscribe to feeds, stream episodes, or keep a downloaded queue ready away from Wi-Fi.

Local skip detection

Downloaded audio can be analyzed on-device for likely ads, self-promotion, donation calls, intros, outros, and uncertain segments.

Apple Watch controls

Control playback from the watch while the iPhone handles the library, downloads, and analysis.

No account layer

No analytics, no sign-in, no in-app purchases, and no server component for the core experience.

built around local processing

MuteCast only handles podcast audio that it downloads or plays itself. The current version does not collect personal data or usage analytics.

Podcasts are valuable, but long episodes can be hard to navigate. MuteCast turns listening into visible structure without accounts, tracking, or cloud analysis.

Subscribe to RSS feeds, stream episodes, download them for offline listening, and keep your queue ready when Wi-Fi is gone. MuteCast is built for everyday podcast listening with clear controls on phone, watch, and in the car.

MuteCast analyzes episodes directly on your device and marks likely structural sections such as ads, self-promotion, donation calls, intros, outros, banter, and uncertain passages. Segments appear in the timeline so you can review them, skip them, or leave them alone.

Privacy is part of the product: no login, no analytics, no tracking SDKs, and no server-side analysis.

App Store

Initial App Store release with RSS subscriptions, offline downloads, local segment detection, Apple Watch controls, and 50 languages.
