Podcasts on Garmin
Your podcasts.
Ready to run.
podl brings your iPhone podcast library to compatible Garmin music watches for phone-free listening, with progress kept in sync.
Choose on your phone
Use podl on iPhone to follow shows, organise episodes and build the playlists you actually want for a run, ride or hike. Your phone remains the comfortable place for browsing; your Garmin becomes the device you can take out.
Take the right episodes
Pair your Garmin with podl, choose what you want available and download those episodes to the watch. Once the audio is there, connect compatible Bluetooth headphones and leave the phone behind.
- Prepare a short run or a long weekend playlist
- Carry selected episodes on the watch
- Control playback from your wrist
Carry on in the right place
When listening progress syncs back to podl, the episode on your phone can reflect where you reached on Garmin. The aim is simple: fewer mental notes, fewer duplicate episodes and no hunting for the right timestamp.
Designed around movement
The Garmin experience focuses on the things that matter while you are active: what is ready, what is playing and where you left off. Library management stays on the larger screen.
Straight answers
Common
questions.
Can I listen without carrying my phone?
Yes. Episodes downloaded to a compatible Garmin watch can be played with Bluetooth headphones while your phone stays at home.
Does podl use Garmin health or activity data?
No. The podl Garmin app is for podcast playback and syncing. It does not collect activity, location, health or ANT+ sensor data.
Will every Garmin model be supported?
No. Compatibility depends on Garmin models that support Connect IQ audio apps and music playback. The Connect IQ listing will confirm whether podl supports your selected watch.
Is podl available in Connect IQ?
Yes. Podl is available on the Connect IQ Store. The required iPhone companion is currently available only to selected TestFlight testers.
