I am looking to use on IOS. I want to sort all my Favorited podcast episodes by date, earliest unlistened first. Is this possible.

Hey @mbunville,

Welcome to the Community and thanks for reaching out about this.

It'd be great for you to take a look at this support site article and follow the steps under Mobile and tablet > More play controls to see what options to sort and filter the episodes of your favorite podcast are available for your iOS device.

Hope you'll find this useful. Let us know if there's anything else we can help with!

Neither the Home > What's New > Podcasts & Shows UI nor the Your Library > New Episodes UI allow sorting by oldest-to-newest. Many podcasts are meant to be listened to in order of release. I want to be able to listen to everything I follow (or better yet, a custom group of podcasts, say all news or all humor) in release order. Spotify only gives me two options: (1) listen to a single podcast in release order or (2) listen to all podcasts in reverse order.

I’m trying to see the status of this idea, but I simply get “Access Denied” from that link.

is there any update on being able to sort a podcast search by date?
