While we don't see any ads on the free version for now, we may in the near future.Īpart from the new announcement, the Pocket Casts apps get episode search and the ease of listening to podcasts even without subscribing. As per The Verge, Pocket Casts may soon come up with a monetization model to recover the revenue it has lost in the recent years of competition from free alternatives such as Google Podcasts.
Pocket Casts imagines that the majority of their users will now comprise those who use the service for free. While users can listen to podcasts for free, those who pay $0.99 a month or $10 a year for the paid service will get access to " more specialised services" such as 10GB of cloud storage for storing their own audio or video content, access to the Windows, Mac, or web apps, and the ability to change themes.
In place of the paid one-time download, Pocket Casts Plus is what the company has introduced as their new subscription service.
