Does continuous play work with overcast?

I'm not a huge podcast listener, even though i'm subscribed to quite a few and it's because of the lack of continuous play even when I turn it on in overcast.

I've tried downcasts version and that doesn't seam to work either.

If it works for others can someone run me through setting it up step by step?

I’ve tried Overcast several times and don’t like it. Can’t stand the interface. I’ve tried many podcast apps and Downcast is the best for me. I found this info;

Loop Lists, When enabled along with "Continuous Play", this setting will cause Downcast to loop to the top of the current episode list or playlist after completing playback of the last episode in the list.

I was able to find Continuous Play and Loop Lists in settings for Downcast. You might try that combination and see where it takes you.

I honestly can't believe how hard it is to just play episode 1 then 2 then 3.

I tried downcast and honestly prefer overcast, it's interesting how we all like different things.

and on a list of episodes, swipe down with one finger till you hear "action." Double tap there, and you can either tap on play next, play last, or add to queue. That should help.
