Use iOS Light/Dark Mode – Toggle this on to follow the system appearance as per the device setting.

  • When it’s off, the app will always show the same theme regardless of the phone being in light or dark mode.

Important Note: Currently, even when a light theme is selected, certain parts of the app, like the Now Playing screen, still remain darker in comparison.

Refresh All Podcast Artwork – When artwork is stuck or hasn’t updated, tap this to refresh.

Use Embedded Artwork – We support artwork that has been embedded into the audio file itself. Toggle this setting on to allow the app to use per-episode artwork. Profile > Settings > Appearance > toggle ‘Use embedded artwork‘ on. 

If you’d like to have larger font sizes, you can enable Display Zoom by navigating to your iOS device’s Settings > Display & Brightness > Display Zoom. This will affect all interface elements, not just texts, to appear larger.

Currently, iOS Pocket Casts app has limited support for elements that respect dynamic type, e.g., elements within the Profile tab, headings within each tab, and so on.

Note: the Android Pocket Casts app has support for dynamic font sizes based on the settings chosen in the system settings.
