Podcast App Design

As part of a design challenge in may 2021 I designed this podcast app over the course of a few nights after school. The challenge was centered around a few points:

1. How users will discover and find content in your app
2. How users can collect their content, downloads or podcasts they follow
3. How playback of a podcast works and looks

I began by analyzing these challenges, noting down ideas, features and looking at existing solutions as well as ideas from other places to help me think through what I think works well and why.
