  4. Change the Row action from Play to Download 
Long press on an episode row’s ⤓ Download button for the option to stream the episode instead.

When an episode is already downloaded, the episode row will show a ▶︎ Play button.

When in streaming mode, to download an episode manually:

  1. Tap on the episode row
  2. Tap the ⤓ Download button on the episode card
Or, long press on an episode row’s ▶︎ Play button for the option to download the episode instead.
You can manually download the episodes you like individually or in bulk, or the app can be set to automatically download new episodes as they’re released.
