Apple Podcasts now has a convenient web interface for browsing and listening to shows

Apple recently gave podcast listeners an improved way to stream shows from its library on any device. Starting today, the version of Apple Podcasts on the web has a look and feature set similar to the company’s standalone app. Not only is the platform accessible from any device via the web, but you’ll get more tools than just playing episodes – even if you don’t have a desktop or mobile app installed.

With a web interface that looks similar to what you’d see inside the full app, you’ll be able to browse shows, access your library, view top charts, buy subscriptions and more. Apple Podcasts on the web syncs everything with your Apple account, so play progress, favorite shows and subscriptions stay up-to-date across devices. If you don’t have an Apple login, the company says you’ll be able to browse and listen, but that’s all. Before this, you could listen to podcasts on the web, but you couldn’t access your library or any of the advanced tools that many users want from the service.

Apple says Podcasts is available on the web in more than 170 countries “in all major web browsers,” including Safari, Chrome, Edge and FireFox.
