Underwater Audio's Guide to Pocket Casts

This guide is for Delphin Users.

We recommend that first-time users follow this help page step by step, from top to bottom.

First we will cover what you need to use Pocket Casts on your Delphin, then we will cover first time setup.



What you'll need

A strong WiFi connection

While making any changes to your playlists or while downloading your podcasts, you must be connected to a strong WiFi network.

A Pocket Casts account

To start you will need a Pocket Casts account. If you do not have one already, we recommend setting up an account on either your computer or phone to have an easier time with your keyboard and screen size. We recommend creating your playlists this way as well.


Step 1

Download Pocket Casts onto your Delphin

  • If you're setting up your new Delphin for the first time:

Your Delphin may present an option to download the Pocket Casts app during the set-up process. Click on it to download.

  • If you have already set up your Delphin and want to add a new app:

Open the Help App by tapping three white lines on your home screen, choosing the Help App, and then selecting ‘Install Apps’. Pocket Casts should appear on the list of popular apps. Tap on it to download and then press 'Install Selected'.

 

(Tip: If you will be using Pocket Casts frequently, we recommend adding it to the home screen of your Delphin for easy access. To add Pocket Casts to your home screen, hold down on the icon you want to replace, then select it from the list of apps that appears.


Step 2

Sign into Pocket Casts on your Delphin

Open Pocket Casts by clicking on the three white horizontal lines at the top-left of your screen and selecting the app. Follow the prompts on the screen until you get to the login screen. Scroll down at the top of your screen until you see the username and password fields. Enter your username and password, then submit.

 

(Tip: Your Delphin's screen may turn off quickly between steps during set-up. To make setting up and installing anything on your Delphin easier, go to App List > System Settings > Display > Sleep and choose a longer sleep time, like 10 minutes, to keep the screen from going dark too quickly. We recommend going back and turning the screen down to a lower time after you have finished setting up your apps as keeping the display screen on drains battery life.)


Step 3

Download Episodes for the pool

Before you head to the pool, you will need to get your apps ready for offline use, as WiFi doesn't work in the water.

Watch this short video to learn how the process is done in Pocket Casts.

Here is a brief overview of the process

1. Open Pocket Casts by clicking on the three white horizontal lines at the top-left of your screen and selecting the app. Sign in to your account.

2. Choose a podcast episode or playlist from your library, and open it.

3. Download the episode by pressing the downard arrow at the left side of the screen under the podcast title.

4. Once your podcasts are downloaded, test them out by playing them with your WiFi off. If your podcasts play while your WiFi is off, you're all set!

 

(Tip: You can turn your WiFi off by swiping down from the top of your screen 2 times. You will see a WiFi icon. Tap the WiFi icon to turn it off. Then, you can swipe that screen away by putting your finger at the bottom of your screen and swiping upward. You can also turn it off by navigating to the app menu, then Open System Settings > Network & internet > then toggling WiFi off at the top right.)2
