What’s new
Version 2.2.2 · Updated July 31, 2026
- You stay signed in when you open Lysten without a connection. Your library is there offline, and syncs as soon as you're back online. - Playback picks up again after Siri interrupts it, instead of leaving you paused. - Episodes now show "Downloading" while a download is running, so you can't start the same one twice — which could crash the app.
