3 years agoI cannot delete further episodes of half finished podcasts that are lined up waiting to be listened to on my Android Tablet despite closely following the instructions. It says go to My Sounds and you will see all the podcast that are waiting to be listened to and swipe to the left or click unsubscribe. When I go to My Sound page there is nothing listed there: no Latest, no Bookmark, no Subscribed, no list of half listened to podcasts, nothing at all! It just shows an empty page waiting for listener instructions. Why not just have a delete button next to the podcast waiting to be listened to, you know a, "Delete This Whole Series Now?" button? You click it and it asks you to confirm the command with "Yes or No" buttons. SIMPLE!
