Under the hood, Voice Boost 2 has been entirely re-written and draws on Arment’s experience editing hundreds of podcast episodes. The change is so natural that you don’t notice it except side-by-side with the old version of the feature or another podcast player.
DRAGTHING COUPON UPDATE
However, that’s also why the update to the feature is so good. Over the weeks I’ve been testing the update to Overcast, Voice Boost 2’s volume and clarity improvements have become the ‘new normal,’ making the difference feel less pronounced than they were at first. Where in the past, I would have to turn the volume up all the way to hear a podcast over constant, loud background noise like running water, now I can turn the volume down and still listen to what was said and with less distortion.
The first time I played a podcast using Voice Boost 2 over my iPhone’s speaker in a noisy environment, I immediately sensed the difference. The feature has been rebuilt from the ground up, and the results are subtle but noticeable. The latest version of Overcast also adds Voice Boost 2. There’s a lot going on under the hood with Voice Boost 2, but you don’t need to understand the details to enjoy it. With AirPlay 2 baked into the app, I’m using my HomePods to listen to podcasts far more than ever before. The delay with the original version of AirPlay wasn’t a deal-breaker, but it was a constant small annoyance that kept me from using AirPlay with Overcast most of the time. When I move to a room with one of my HomePods, the process of switching to the HomePod from my iPhone’s built-in speaker is much faster and smoother now, whether I use Control Center or tap my phone on the top of the HomePod. I often listen to podcasts as I’m doing things around my house. I’m delighted that Overcast supports AirPlay 2 now. As a result, Overcast can continue playing a podcast episode even if you are temporarily out of range of the AirPlay 2 receiver. AirPlay 2 also buffers more audio than Apple’s original AirPlay technology. Today’s update adds support for AirPlay 2, which means much faster switching between devices like an iPhone or iPad and a HomePod or another AirPlay 2 speaker or device. Overcast, Marco Arment’s iOS podcast player, received its first update of 2020 today, which enhances the listening experience with improvements focused on playback and audio quality.
