Submitting to Overcast

Overcast is a podcast app for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch.

Overcast usually finds podcasts through Apple Podcasts. Before a podcast can appear in search results, Overcast must find its Apple Podcasts listing. Adding a feed manually does not mean that it appears in search.

Send the public feed

  1. First search for your podcast on Overcast. If the correct listing is already there, use its show URL.
  2. Examine your public RSS feed. Make sure that the title, description, cover, and published episodes are correct. Make sure that the audio plays.
  3. In Podigee, open the Overcast connection under "Exports". Start the manual process if the option is shown. You can also open the Overcast submission page.
  4. Enter your public RSS feed URL. Follow the provider instructions. Do not send personal feed URLs with access credentials.

If your podcast is listed in Apple Podcasts but is missing from Overcast, you can add its feed manually. Listeners can also use "Add URL" in the app for public feeds.

Examine and save the show link

Open the public podcast page. Make sure that it shows the correct podcast before you save its show URL in Podigee. If the field is available in the connection under "Exports", enter the show URL there. Then examine the link in your web player. The player settings can also change which links it shows.

Interface examples

The images below show the manual process and the Podigee connection. The older Podigee image says that an Overcast account is necessary. The current linked submission page shows the feed form without a sign-in step. Follow the current provider page.
