| The verdict | AntennaPod is a free, open source Android podcast app popular with privacy-conscious listeners who don't want a big tech company tracking their habits. |
| Free tier | Available. Check the plan limits below. |
| Best for | Shows with an audience that cares about open source software and privacy, common in tech and free software communities. |
