Free Enough

This app has paid upgrades — but its free tier is the complete product. Most people who use it never feel the need to pay.

Pocket Casts Plus (~$4/mo, in-app purchase) adds folders, bookmarks, and cloud storage — but the complete player on every platform is free, and reviewers call Plus “totally optional.”

Reports go to a human review queue. No timeline promised — this is a small pilot, but every report gets read.
