Pocket Casts, the podcast app, has announced the launch of the Pocket Casts Wear OS app.  The app makes it easier to listen to podcasts on your Google watch, such as a Samsung Galaxy Watch or Google Pixel Watch. It allows users to leave their phones behind and listen to podcasts directly from their Bluetooth headphones through their watch. This works with a Pocket Casts Plus subscription, a watch with Google OS, and Bluetooth headphones. You're able to access any podcast that you're subscribed to, as well as those in your Up Next queue, Filters, or any uploaded cloud files. Users are able to adjust the playback speed, trim excess silence, and turn on Volume Boost to make it louder.
