Podcast AddictMOD APK v2026.13 · Premium unlocked (device-side features), No visual ads

Podcast Addict MOD APK 2026.13 is the current 2026.13 build of Xavier Guillemane's podcast, radio and audiobook player with the Premium flag switched on: the visual ads are gone, and the Premium extras that are decided inside the app — custom themes, the opening screen, the playlist widget, hiding sponsored podcasts — are open from the first launch. The player itself was never limited: the free app already streams, downloads, speeds up and skips silence exactly like Premium. It is a 24 MB APK for Android 8.0 or newer, needs no root and no account.

What "Premium unlocked" covers in Podcast Addict

• No visual ads — the bottom banner and the full-screen ad format the free app introduced in 2025 are gone.
• Device-side Premium features from the developer's own list: Material You and custom colour themes, a custom opening screen, the Playlist widget, hiding sponsored podcasts in discovery, sharing episodes without the "via Podcast Addict" attribution, and no changelog pop-up.
• Probably, but build-dependent — the 2026.13 Premium additions (early AirPlay, Sonos and UPnP/DLNA playback, and audio compression for downloads) are also decided on the device, so they should follow the flag; we have not tested every receiver.
• Everything else is the stock app — the catalogue the listing describes as 4.5 million podcasts, 120 thousand radio stations and 20 thousand audiobooks, OPML import and export, auto-download, chapters, sleep timer, playback speed, volume boost, Chromecast.

What it does not do, so you know before you download: cross-device syncing and real-time (WebSub) episode updates go through the developer's servers and are tied to a verified subscription — a modified APK cannot promise either, and this page does not. Nothing about the podcasts changes: episodes still come from each show's own feed, so a paid private feed stays paid, and the ads that hosts read inside an episode are part of the audio, not of the app. This is also not the old "Podcast Addict – Donate" unlocker; that was a separate purchase that only removed the banner.

What is in Podcast Addict 2026.13

Version 2026.13 reached Android devices between 17 and 22 October 2026 in several builds. On the developer's own roadmap it is the release that brings early AirPlay, Sonos and UPnP/DLNA audio playback and audio compression to Premium users; 2026.12 added the Material You and custom colour themes, and 2026.11 introduced cross-device sync. The MOD follows the official version numbers; when the developer ships the next update we check the source daily and publish the matching build after a review, so expect a short gap after each release — the version on this page is always the one behind the download button.

Android 8.0+, 24 MB, no account — the requirements

• Android 8.0 (Oreo) or newer — the app raised its minimum; the source page still says 5.0, we go by the official listing
• 24 MB APK, no OBB file, no root
• No account or sign-in; downloaded episodes play offline
• A different signature from the Play Store app, so it will not install over the store copy — export your subscriptions as OPML first

Who this build is for — and a word about the developer

Listeners who want the ad-free player with the Premium look and widgets, without a subscription. Podcast Addict is a one-developer app, and Premium costs $0.99 a month or $9.99 a year; if the app ends up in your daily routine, the subscription is the honest way to keep the ads away — and it is the only way to get the sync that this build cannot give you.
