MobileCast 3.0~b1

September 29, 2008 by Brooke

Another app that made it’s debut this week-end was MobileCast. I really liked the MobileCast application from firmware 1.1.4 and below!! I used it all the time! So, I was really excited to see that MobileCast had made it to firmware 2.x. MobileCast is an application that allows you to wireless download podcasts.

The new MobileCast has a slightly new look and feel to it. When you open the application, you will notice three options on the lower menu bar; Favorites, Downloads and Search. The Search option allows you to search for audio and video podcasts. I will say that the search is a little slow and slightly glitchy but, if you can make it past that, you will get a list of relevant options based on your search. You can then select Add next to the podcast you would like to add to your favorites. You will get a pop-up saying that the podcast feed was successfully added. [Read more…]

Another cool new feature is the ability to email a feed url. When you are on the main menu… [Read more…]

MobileCast 2.2.1 Update – Vidcast Compatible

December 22, 2007 by Douglas

A recent update to MobileCast now works with video podcasts. This is great! Now you can enter an RSS feed of your favorite video podcast and it will download and play right from the app. No computer or iTunes needed. It seems to work very well and so far all the feeds I’ve tried work. The feed must be for video playable on the iPhone.

One of the biggest downfalls of iTunes is not being able to download podcasts over wifi without iTunes. MobileCast now allows you to! Just add the feed’s URL and the feed appears. You can choose which episode to download and listen right from the app.
