RelayPlay
A calmer podcast player for taming your backlog
RelayPlay is an iPhone podcast player for people tired of managing one giant queue. Catch Up adds only the next missed episode. Hold keeps shows you want to hear together aside until you are ready. Latest + AutoSkip keeps daily shows current, while downloads, Travel Mode and CarPlay work quietly in the background. Built as a one-person indie project, RelayPlay is a different approach to podcast flow—not another inbox to clear.
Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Marco, the solo developer behind RelayPlay. I built it because my podcast queue kept turning into homework: daily shows piled up, long series took over everything, and episodes I wanted to hear with someone else got mixed into the same queue.
RelayPlay tries a different model:
• Catch Up reveals a backlog one episode at a time
• Hold keeps shared listening separate until you’re ready
• Latest + AutoSkip keeps news shows current
• Flow stays small and playable
Version 1.3 also adds Travel Mode, smarter downloads, CarPlay improvements, and light/dark themes.
I’d love honest feedback: Does this way of handling a podcast backlog make sense to you, and which part would you want to try first?
