Track episodes you want to listen to, shows you follow, and notes from episodes across your podcast library.
Step-by-step guide
6 steps
- 1
Identify what you want to track
Most podcast listeners want to track: shows they subscribe to, episodes in a backlog, episodes they have listened to, and notes or quotes from episodes they found valuable.
- 2
Describe the app to Appaca
Tell Appaca: "Build a podcast tracker with shows (name, category, frequency), episodes linked to shows (title, date, duration, status: listened/queued/skipped), notes per episode, and a list of episodes I want to listen to next."
- 3
Add your podcast library
Enter the shows you follow with their category (business, self-development, comedy, true crime). Then add upcoming episodes you want to listen to from your backlog.
- 4
Log episodes after listening
Mark each episode as listened. Add any key takeaways or quotes you want to remember. These notes become a personal knowledge base over time.
- 5
Build a listening queue
Maintain a prioritized queue of episodes to listen to next. Drag and reorder based on relevance and urgency.
- 6
Review your notes weekly
Once a week, re-read notes from recently listened episodes. This review step converts passive listening into active learning.
