Podcast without video on Andriod not working

[tightman22]

Even if I select the option, that podcast are "audio only" I still see a video everytime when I want to stream the Joe Rogan podcast. w t f Spotify? This app sucks so hard I can't believe they have millions to throw on a single podcaster. Thanks for ruining the experience with an app that is clearly not made for this.

Hey @tightman22,

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

While a toggle to disable videos on podcasts is not available, we'd recommend using the app in the background (for example browsing in another app on your device while listening or having your phone locked). This is so the video doesn't display and data consumption is minimum.

We understand where you're coming from and will make sure all your feedback reaches the right teams. Further, other users also think having a toggle in the app would be a good idea. In this case, you can add your +VOTE and Subscribe to this thread. That way, you can stay up-to-date with any relevant news we have about this.
