Castawai is a podcast player built around RSS subscriptions and offline listening. Find shows or add a feed directly, download episodes, organize playlists, and keep a queue tidy with episode limits and automatic deletion of played downloads. Smart Speed, Voice Boost, sleep timers, lock-screen playback, widgets, notifications, and Apple Watch support are included in the listening experience. Listeners switching from another app can import an OPML file or a list of RSS feeds. The current US App Store description presents the main player as free without a premium feature wall; optional gratuity purchases support development. It does not host every show itself, so availability depends on public podcast feeds and publisher settings. The listing says the developer collects no data and requires iOS 17 or later. Its island-themed interface is decorative, while subscriptions and playback remain standard podcast features.
