How to Download Podcast on iOS or Android?

Podcasts refer to the downloadable series of audio or video files that can be listened in offline mode. An ordinary user, after taking the subscription of it, can download the daily update of a continuous series. The file is generally in audio format, but sometimes it consists of PDF or video file also. The very concept of Podcast is inherited from the popularity of an Apple product iPod. The subscriber of the podcast stores all files in a commonly accessible file on a server in the form of a web feed which can be accessed through the Internet. A user or a subscriber can use that chunk of data or stored file through application software. Podcast apps are working on the client side by which an ordinary user can download the file from subscriber’s server. They can check the update, and get a notification in case of any new entry in the play chart.
