*) How to download podcasts and audiobooks?
Podcasts and audiobooks are just files. You can download them manually from the official publisher using your browser or by using a small tool/script that does this automatically. I released a simple script that you could use:

I designed the app by hand to be kind on your battery by being free from bloat. It uses modern, native Android code so it integrates well. It works 100% offline and it works without a subscription or ads. Its source code is open and released under the free/libre software license GPLv3, granting you the permission to modify and extend the app.
