Open Spotify podcast links in Apple Podcasts.

Someone sends you an episode on Spotify and your subscriptions are all in Apple Podcasts. Patois opens the same episode where you already listen, and it works the other way round too.

How it finds the episode

Podcasts have no shared code like a song's, so Patois has to compare. It looks for the show by name, then for the episode by title and date. If a show has reused a title, it takes the episode nearest in date.

When it finds the show but not the episode, it opens the show and tells you which episode to choose. A wrong episode would be worse than one extra tap.

Which links it reads

  • Spotify and Apple Podcasts: on iPhone, iPad and Mac in Safari, in Chrome, and by sharing to the Patois app.
  • Deezer: only by sharing to the Patois app on iPhone or iPad.

questions, answered.

Why does a podcast open in Apple Podcasts if I picked Apple Music?

Apple keeps podcasts in a separate app and a separate catalogue, so that's where the episode is.

Does it keep my place in the episode?

No. Patois only opens the episode. Your listening position stays in each app.

Is it free?

Yes. There's nothing to buy, no ads and no subscription, and you don't need an account.
