WEBVTT 00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:09.380 What we tried to do was to load the page as quick 00:00:09.380 --> 00:00:13.060 as we could by having the episodes maybe for 00:00:13.060 --> 00:00:15.759 the current month or the last five episodes possibly, 00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:18.100 and that means that the page loads quickly. For 00:00:18.100 --> 00:00:20.800 example, James Cridland does a podcast called 00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:24.199 Podnews Daily that has over 2 ,000 episodes. 00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:27.300 I'm sure you wouldn't want us to wait. for 2 00:00:27.300 --> 00:00:29.420 ,000 episodes to load before you could start 00:00:29.420 --> 00:00:33.380 to use the page. We talked about searching for 00:00:33.380 --> 00:00:36.399 episodes by title or finding a guest. One of 00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:39.399 the other ways of searching for an episode is 00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:43.280 by date. Welcome to Fanzone, your bite -sized 00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:45.820 guide to getting the most out of the TrueFans 00:00:45.820 --> 00:00:49.539 podcast app. In each episode, we'll discuss an 00:00:49.539 --> 00:00:52.539 aspect of the app and hopefully answer any questions 00:00:52.539 --> 00:00:56.049 you may have about it. Plus... When you listen 00:00:56.049 --> 00:00:59.130 to fans owning TrueFans, you can earn as you 00:00:59.130 --> 00:01:02.070 listen and use your earnings to support your 00:01:02.070 --> 00:01:05.049 favourite podcasters. I'm Claire Waite Brown, 00:01:05.170 --> 00:01:07.450 independent podcaster and all -round podcast 00:01:07.450 --> 00:01:10.750 enthusiast. And I'm Sam Sethi, the CEO and founder 00:01:10.750 --> 00:01:17.519 of TrueFans. Episode six, we looked at what 00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:21.840 you see when looking at the screen you see when 00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:24.019 you are looking at the podcast as a whole rather 00:01:24.019 --> 00:01:27.000 than a single episode. And over the next few 00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:29.540 episodes of Fanzone, we'll look in more detail 00:01:29.540 --> 00:01:32.040 about all the things you can do from the show 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:36.659 screen. Just like with the episode screen, if 00:01:36.659 --> 00:01:39.739 you scroll down, you'll see some tabs. And we've 00:01:39.739 --> 00:01:41.900 been talking about those tabs at an episode level. 00:01:42.299 --> 00:01:44.299 For the previous few episodes, and now moving 00:01:44.299 --> 00:01:46.700 on, we're going to talk about that tabs at the 00:01:46.700 --> 00:01:49.420 show level. Some of them might have the same 00:01:49.420 --> 00:01:51.739 name, but they'll be slightly different. The 00:01:51.739 --> 00:01:54.680 first tab we see is episodes where, not surprisingly, 00:01:54.859 --> 00:01:58.959 you can see a list of the episodes of that podcast. 00:01:59.219 --> 00:02:01.079 I was going to say all the episodes, but it might 00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:03.840 not be all at first glance. I just wanted to 00:02:03.840 --> 00:02:06.719 mention as well that in that list view, you will 00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.400 see icons. They are the same icons that you see 00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:12.900 on the episode screen. that we have talked about 00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:15.599 in the previous few episodes. So you've got your 00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.659 heart icon, your comment icon, etc. So you can 00:02:18.659 --> 00:02:22.280 easily do those from that screen as well. So 00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.979 we've clicked on that tab and I can see some 00:02:25.979 --> 00:02:29.680 episodes. Also on this screen, I can see a search 00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:33.740 box and a filters symbol. Can you tell me more 00:02:33.740 --> 00:02:37.580 about what those do, please, Sam? Yes. So the 00:02:37.580 --> 00:02:41.770 search box allows you to search for... episodes 00:02:41.770 --> 00:02:45.129 for longer podcasts you have a view all button 00:02:45.129 --> 00:02:47.250 at the bottom where you could see a list of all 00:02:47.250 --> 00:02:50.650 of the episodes but it may be that it's paginated 00:02:50.650 --> 00:02:53.210 so maybe the episode you're looking for is on 00:02:53.210 --> 00:02:56.509 screen two three four or five so instead of you 00:02:56.509 --> 00:02:59.129 having to click the button you could type out 00:02:59.129 --> 00:03:02.530 the title of the episode you might be able to 00:03:02.530 --> 00:03:06.250 type out a guest as well so for example if you've 00:03:06.250 --> 00:03:09.770 listed a guest with your episode you can also 00:03:09.770 --> 00:03:13.810 search for the guest within that episode. Brilliant. 00:03:14.169 --> 00:03:17.490 And then why do I need a filters button? Under 00:03:17.490 --> 00:03:20.270 the filters icon, you get two options. The first 00:03:20.270 --> 00:03:23.270 one is the ability to see view all. Again, if 00:03:23.270 --> 00:03:25.569 you want to see all episodes. What we tried to 00:03:25.569 --> 00:03:28.330 do was to load the page as quick as we could 00:03:28.330 --> 00:03:31.949 by having the episodes maybe for the current 00:03:31.949 --> 00:03:34.840 month or the last five episodes possibly. And 00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:37.020 that means that the page loads quickly. For example, 00:03:37.219 --> 00:03:39.699 James Cridland does a podcast called Podnews 00:03:39.699 --> 00:03:43.860 Daily that has over 2000 episodes. I'm sure you 00:03:43.860 --> 00:03:46.800 wouldn't want us to wait for 2000 episodes to 00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:48.900 load before you could start to use the page. 00:03:49.020 --> 00:03:51.900 So we limit the amount. So View All gives you 00:03:51.900 --> 00:03:54.460 that option. New would just allow you to filter 00:03:54.460 --> 00:03:56.719 out any podcast. And you may have listened to 00:03:56.719 --> 00:03:58.819 some of the podcasts or some of the episodes 00:03:58.819 --> 00:04:01.479 in that podcast. And so you may just want to 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:03.520 see the new ones that you haven't listened to. 00:04:04.480 --> 00:04:06.699 Resume is clearly you've started to listen to 00:04:06.699 --> 00:04:08.759 a podcast and you now want to filter it by just 00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:11.159 show me the podcast I've started and therefore 00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:14.659 I can resume. And replay is I've finished this 00:04:14.659 --> 00:04:17.519 podcast, only show me those podcasts I've finished. 00:04:17.540 --> 00:04:19.240 Maybe I want to start listening to one of those 00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:21.779 again. So new resume and replay are the three 00:04:21.779 --> 00:04:26.459 states of the play button that you have and you 00:04:26.459 --> 00:04:28.860 can filter it so you can just limit the episodes 00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:31.980 by one of those. And I see here, once you've 00:04:31.980 --> 00:04:35.439 clicked on filters, you can also search for a 00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:39.220 date. Yes. So one of the things we talked about 00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:41.800 searching for episodes by title or finding a 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.240 guest, one of the other ways of searching for 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:47.819 a episode is by date. So you might say, here 00:04:47.819 --> 00:04:51.620 we are in April 2025. I know there's a podcast. 00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:55.410 It was in January 2023. Well, again, you could 00:04:55.410 --> 00:04:57.569 go to the bottom of this screen and click the 00:04:57.569 --> 00:04:59.550 pagination and click, click, click, click, click 00:04:59.550 --> 00:05:02.589 for ages. Or you just type the date in and that 00:05:02.589 --> 00:05:04.490 will then give you the episode that you're looking 00:05:04.490 --> 00:05:08.250 for. Brilliant. All makes perfect sense as usual. 00:05:08.269 --> 00:05:11.329 Thank you so much. Thanks so much for listening. 00:05:11.829 --> 00:05:14.050 There are lots more episodes of Fanzone for 00:05:14.050 --> 00:05:16.709 you to get stuck into and that show you how to 00:05:16.709 --> 00:05:19.370 make the most of the fab features that this forward 00:05:19.370 --> 00:05:22.709 -looking podcast app has to offer podcast listeners 00:05:22.709 --> 00:05:26.009 and creators alike.
