Podcasts for people who move

Your podcasts.
In their stride.

podl keeps your podcasts, playlists, and progress in sync across your phone and watches — with Garmin leading the way for runners, riders, hikers, and anyone who would rather be moving.

Why podl

Leave the phone. Keep the story.

podl keeps the podcasts you love close, from everyday listening to your longest days out.

How podl came to be

I run.
I listen.

But my podcasts never quite kept up.

I wanted to choose something on my phone, head out with my watch, and carry on listening without giving the handover another thought. Nothing offered that properly.

There were workarounds, of course. Or I could use one podcast app on my phone and another on my watch—then accept that neither really knew what the other was doing.

So I started building the thing I wanted to run with: one podcast home, with playlists and progress that move seamlessly between phone and watch.

That’s why podl was born.
