The players of both apps are simple, easy to navigate, and striking. They share a lot of similarities, but for some reason, I prefer Castbox's player over Podcast Addict's. Castbox's Player displays the customized cover image for each episode. Podcast Addict, on the other hand, uses the generic profile picture of a podcast channel for all episodes of that podcast.
That might seem insignificant, but it's a deal-breaker for me and many others, I believe. Additionally, Castbox's player has a better UI and is well labeled. The forward and rewind buttons let you know that it jumps playback by 30 seconds and 10 seconds, respectively. The playback buttons of Podcast Addict's player are bland and have no labels.
With Castbox, you can see how much time is left before the end of a podcast episode. Podcast Addict only displays the entire timestamp of the episode, leaving no information on how long you've played the episode or how many minutes you have left to play.
Both apps let you download episodes to your device for offline listening. Podcast Addict, however, does it better. By default, episodes are downloaded in the app's parent folder located in your phone's internal storage. In the app Settings menu, I like that Podcast Addict lets me select the folders and sub-folders I'd love to save podcast episodes I download. Castbox, on the other hand, is a little limiting when it comes to customizing storage location. You can only choose to store episodes in your device's internal storage or SD card; Castbox doesn't let you select a specific folder.
Moving to the episode description, both podcast players are awesome, but Castbox trumps Podcast Addict. One thing Castbox does better than Podcast Addict is that it displays the size of every episode right in the description.
This gives you an idea of how large or small a podcast is before you download them. If you have a limited data plan, you will find this handy. You wouldn't want to download a podcast that would exhaust your mobile data.
Whenever I want to watch a video podcast also called Videocast , Castbox is my go-to app. Slide the blue bar to the right until you get the desired size for this partition.
Once your partition 1 size is done, again click on the Add button available at the top left corner of the screen. Click on fat32 and a menu will open up. Choose ext2 from the menu. Its default size will be your SD card size minus the size of the partition 1. This partition is for the applications that are going to be linked to the SD card.
If you feel like you need more space for this partition, you can adjust it by sliding the blue bar again. Once you are done with all the settings, click on Apply and OK to create the partition. After the partition processing is completed, you will see two partitions there.
Open the Link2SD application by clicking on its icon. Click on the application you want to move to the SD The below screen with all the details of the application will open up. Select ext2 from the menu. You will receive a message saying that the files are linked and moved to the second partition of the SD card. This will clear a decent amount of space of the internal storage on the phone.
Note: You can use the above method for moving pre-installed apps as well as the apps installed by you on your phone. For the applications that support moving to the SD card, you can choose to move them to the SD card, and if there are some applications that are installed by you but do not support moving to the SD card then you can choose the link to the SD card option. In the previous method, you need to root your phone before you can force move the apps to an SD card on your Android phone.
Rooting your phone can lead to loss of important data and settings even if you have taken the backup. In the worst of cases, rooting can completely damage your phone. So, generally, people avoid rooting their phones. If you also do not want to root your phone but still need to move the applications from the internal storage of your phone to the SD card, then this method is for you. First of all, download and install the APK editor. After that, wait for some time as the further process will take some time.
After the process is completed, you will see a message saying success. Now, go to the settings of your phone and check whether the application has moved to the SD card or not. If it has moved successfully, you will see that the move to the internal storage button will become accessible and you can click on it to reverse the process.
Similarly, using the above steps you can move the other apps to the SD card without rooting your phone. Hopefully, using the above methods, you will be able to force move apps from the internal storage to the SD card on your Android phone no matter what type of application it is and can make some space available on the internal storage of your phone.
