Audible 2x during any walk or mindless activity means you can easily get through a book a week without any lifestyle changes. Literally has changed me life.
I do all of my podcast from 2-2.4x depending on the speaker. Silence skipping gets it to an effective 3x speed. Most people hear me listening for brief periods and wonder how I understand any of it. It's a progression to get there, but it is totally doable. I'm sure some people can go faster, but I just tell them to go up .1x at a time until it sounds right.
Which podcast app do you recommend?
pocketcasts on android is what i use, and i know it has silence trimming and playback speed from .5 to 3.0 in .1 increments.
I have the paid version so im unaware if some/all of these feature require the paid version
I use podcast addict on Android and have for years. It's a little on the techie side with all of its options, but I have it mostly set and forget I really just adjust the speed per podcast which it remembers for you once you set it. I have the paid version which I recommend.
Interesting. How do you change the speed, via software? I use VLC Player and it only seems to have a few speed settings.
VLC player actually has speed adjustments at .1x granularity. I only use VLC for video, but I watch most stuff on it with the speed up.
Thanks, maybe I missed it, or have an older version. Will check.
I use Smart AudioBook Player for Android. It has adjustable playback speed from 0.5x to 2.5x in 0.1x increments.
Will check it out, thanks.
