MuteCast

ADS OUT. PODCASTS ON. Listen for the conversations, stories and ideas. MuteCast combines a podcast player with transparent on-device segment detection and Auto-Skip. Podcast lists and players adapt to landscape on iPhone and iPad. Search and queue actions stay within reach, and your search text and reading position are preserved when you rotate. AUTO-SKIP—YOU DECIDE Detect likely ads, self-promos, donation appeals, intros and outros on your device. Choose which types may be skipped for each podcast; other types play normally. Detection draws on available transcripts, chapters, show notes, known patterns and audio cues. SEE WHAT WAS SKIPPED The timeline shows detected segments and confidence. Skip History records automatic skips with reasons and lets you return to the original position later. Review the transcript and correct a label; corrections inform future analysis for that podcast. OPTIONALLY SHORTEN PAUSES Silence Reduction shortens longer speech pauses in podcasts. It is off by default, with global and per-podcast controls. Time Saved reports the shortened seconds separately.
