MiniCast brings podcasts to Apple Watch

The Apple Watch is a great companion device for exercise, tracking your activity, and with watchOS 4, provides access to Apple Music. For people that prefer listening to podcasts while they work out, the Apple Watch is less ideal due to the lack of podcast app, either Apple's own Podcast app or third-party apps. A new Apple Watch app called MiniCast is looking to fill that gap and bring podcasts to your wrist.

MiniCast, available for free in the App Store (with $3.99 In-App Purchase), is a simple iPhone extension and Apple Watch app that allows uses to send podcasts from Apple's Podcasts app, Overcast, Castro, or PocketCast to their watch.

Let’s Talk iOS 217: It did happen

Cody is not very happy with the way iOS handles sound control. Sebastien talks about the iDB app update and the inconsistencies of the app approval process in the App Store. They both talk about the best App Store apps of 2017, as per Apple... Then Sebastien confides about his latest addiction. But everything is fine because Jony is back in the studio.

Let’s Talk iOS 216: A random thing to talk about

Oh boy, was that a bad week for Apple. Last time it was so bad, Scott Forstall was still working for the company. Like with most bad stories, there is a silver lining, albeit very minor. On a more positive note, HQ is fun (add "senastienpage" as your referral code in the app - yes, it's totally misspelled!), wireless charging is awesome, and maybe you can help Cody find the right app to wake up in the morning.

Let’s Talk Jailbreak 167: Honorable mentions

There is a new jailbreak in town, and it's called Saigon. Joaquim gives us the low down on this new jailbreak as well as an update about the current jailbreak situation depending on devices and iOS version. The two co-hosts then discuss tweaks that make your iOS 10 device look like iOS 11, and other jailbreak tweaks. Side note: apologies about the poor sound quality. This shall not happen again.
