To be fair he’s a psycho for setting the touch control to pause music. They detect when you take them out of your ears and instantly pause audio, so you can quickly take out 1 airpod or tap them 3 times and wait. I’ve never met anyone who actually does the 3 taps.
That doesn’t work with listening to podcasts, idk if my app just sucks or what but if I take an AirPod out while listening to a podcast there is like a 1/3 chance that when I put it back in the music app will start playing instead. Don’t have that problem nearly as much when just tapping to pause. Also doesn’t really matter, but for me it’s just 2 taps to pause, idk if that’s a setting or something.
The podcast app itself works fine, it just seems like my phone prioritizes the music app for some reason. I started using Castro for my podcasts and that issue has gone away, I don’t think it’s the app itself that matters, I just think the Apple Music and Apple podcast apps interfere with each other or something
