@filipwojda Nice, we had a version of this 10 years ago on https://t.co/wGVa30NIz9, deep cut still available in the internet archive https://t.co/pXQAExNUae

This is a nice touch in iOS 18 Podcasts. Scrub with your finger and the chapters are demarcated along the track, and the chapter title is shown in a call-out.
It’s personal, powerful, and private—and it’s integrated into the apps you rely on every day.

🧵🎙️ Yesterday, Apple released the transcripts feature for Apple Podcasts. This reminded us to revisit the UI of the Podcasts app, and we’d love to share some of our findings. We’re just focusing on the player since there’s a ton to cover.

Apple Podcasts Transcripts are available with iOS 17.4, very excited to see this out in the world, a huge step for accessibility https://t.co/lczVyVowK7
Thrilled to finally share what we’ve been working on, podcast transcripts!
For me, having the ability to search the audio and play from anywhere has been a game changer.
The team has done some amazing work here, excited for you all to try it!
Transcripts for @ApplePodcasts! A major accomplishment by many & the fruition of @baileyspace@annewootton's long time ambitions. It's not just strong work; it's true progress. I'm actually really excited about this ;^) https://t.co/D8jWcA0ndC
In my latest for my Forbes column, I wrote about how big it is that Apple Podcasts —by far the most popular podcast app on the iPhone etc—is getting transcripts come iOS 17.4. It makes podcasts more inclusive of Deaf and H/H people especially.
