About Castria: Skip Podcast Ads
Castria is the podcast app that skips the ads for you. It finds every ad, sponsor read, and commercial break in an episode and skips them automatically while you listen — no fast-forwarding, no guesswork. Just the show.
Then a smart layer most apps don't have — AI summaries, searchable transcripts, and tap-to-jump topics — wrapped in a fast, offline-ready player that syncs across all your devices. And it's completely free.
TOP FEATURES
• Automatic ad-skipping — ads, sponsor reads, and breaks removed on every episode, hands-free, even host read ads
• You stay in control — one tap to turn skipping off or keep a sponsor you want to hear
• AI episode summaries — see what an episode covers before you commit
• Tap-to-jump topics — every episode split into chapters you can jump straight to
• Searchable full transcripts — read along, search any word, tap to jump to that moment
• Offline downloads — save episodes (ad-skipping included) and listen with no signal
• Resume on any device — iPhone, iPad, Android, and web on one account
Castria is 100% free — no subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads.
Stop fast-forwarding through ads. Download Castria and just listen.

User reviews
It's an great app! I've bee using it for a few days and already migrated from Pocket Casts exclusively because of some annoying DAI. I still miss some options like custom skip time; mark all episodes as watched; and hide/archive watched episodes. Also, the interface would be even better if the sections for the show ...
does exactly what it says it does, skips the commercials. so satisfying to hear (and see in the UI) the commercials being skipped. love it.
Perfect app for ad free podcasts. Works really well and automatically removes ads from podcasts.
