Overcast Podcast - how to automatically play next podcast in a playlist?

Question

The Overcast podcast app (from Marco Arment) used to play all podcasts in a playlist sequentially. Now, the player stops after each podcast. How can I go back to previous behavior?

Edit: This is on an iPhone6

Answer 1

Start playing a podcast and once it's playing, click on PLAYBACK in the lower left corner. That will give you the option to play next or stop.

Answer 2

In case anyone else is having this issue, you might have 'Play Next by Priority' turned on.

I was finding that after an episode ended, the next episode that started playing was the one at the top of the playlist.

Toggling this to 'off' will ensure that the next episode on the list will be played, and not the topmost episode.

Answer 3

Click on the podcast, click "All" in the center, and then in the top right click "All..." which brings up the option to "Add # Episodes," and after clicking "Add # Episodes" the continuous play function works as expected.
