A single-purpose podcast app for exactly one podcast: Harmontown, all ~360 episodes

\n

For the past five or six years I've listened to Harmontown almost every single night. I went through it a few times on Spotify, then made my way through the archives on YouTube. And each night I kept getting annoyed: every podcast app I used was full of other podcasts I didn't care about, getting in the way of me listening to Harmontown. This was a problem that needed to be solved.

\n

A few weeks later I had a vibe-coded iOS app that Apple somehow approved for TestFlight. It's a little piece of software made with love, mostly just for myself, but I figured if anyone else would find it useful it would be the Harmontown people — so I posted it to r/Harmontown on New Year's Day.

What it does

\n\n

It builds on the amazing work of HarmonSearch, whose transcripts power both the transcript view and search.

Join the TestFlight beta — iOS only, sorry.
