Selling paid subscriptions through Apple Podcasts? Until now,
you’ve had to upload that audio separately to Apple; but Apple
Podcasts Delegated Delivery was announced yesterday, allowing
creators to upload and manage that audio through selected podcast
hosting companies when this feature launches in Q3.


A number of initial podcast hosting companies have been
announced including RSS·com, Libsyn and Buzzsprout; but if
you run a podcast hosting company and wish to participate in
Delegated Delivery, you’re encouraged to fill out this
form.  (Memo to Apple: here’s a list).


"Interesting that both of Spotify's hosting platforms,
megaphone and anchor, arent participating at launch."- Ashley
C


"Spotify works with third parties to support its
subscription offering, too. the only overlap is acast, at
least according to the initial partner list. curious if this
means there's now additional stratification in podcast world:
team Spotify or team Apple "- Ashley C



iOS 15.5, iPadOS 15.5, and macOS 12.4 were made available
yesterday. This brings annual paid subscriptions within the Apple
Podcasts app. We told you last month; you can add an annual plan
now.


With the new iOS, the Apple Podcasts app has had a welcome
tweak for automatic download settings, with per-show
customisation. You’ll find the new settings in your Settings app
on iPhone and iPad. The app will now also recommend removing old
downloads when necessary.
