How do I transfer my programs from another app to Radio Eight?
If you use another podcast app and follow certain shows, you can transfer them all to Thmanyah Radio with simple steps without having to search for each program again. Importing is available directly from Apple Podcasts, or from any other app via an OPML file.
Importing from Apple Podcasts
- Open Thmanyah Radio and go to "Settings".
- Select "Import".
- Click "From Apple Podcast".
- Follow the instructions to allow Thmanyah Radio to access your shows.
- After a few seconds, you'll find all your shows transferred to the "My Shows" section.
Importing from Other Apps
Most podcast apps support exporting your shows as an "OPML" file, which saves a list of all the shows you follow so you can transfer them to any other app.
First: Export the OPML file from your current app
- Open the podcast app you are using.
- Go to settings and look for the "Export" or "Export" OPML file option.
- Export the file and save it to your device.
Second: Import the file into the "Thmanyah Radio" app
- Open Thmanyah Radio and go to "Settings".
- Select "Import".
- Click "From Other Apps".
- Send the file to the Thmanyah Radio app as you would send any file.
- After a few seconds, you'll find all your shows in the "My Shows" section.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is importing available to everyone or only for subscribers?
Importing is available to everyone without a subscription.
2. Are episodes and listening progress also imported?
No, only the list of shows you follow is imported. Listening history and progress are not transferred.
3. What is the difference between importing and adding a program via an "RSS" link?
Importing transfers all your shows at once. Adding an RSS link adds a single program that is not available in Thmanyah Radio.
4. What is an "OPML" file?
It is a file exported from other podcast apps, containing a list of the podcasts you follow in another app, and can be used to import them to Thmanyah Radio all at once.
5. When should I use an "OPML" file during the import process?
You can use it if you want to transfer more than one podcast at once from another app to Thmanyah Radio instead of adding them one by one.
6. My app does not support exporting "OPML", what should I do?
Search for the app name with the words "OPML export" on Google, some apps hide this option in advanced settings.
7. Does my library update automatically if I change something in "Apple Podcasts" after importing?
No, changes you make in "Apple Podcasts" after importing do not automatically transfer to Thmanyah Radio, as direct synchronization between the two apps is not currently supported. For example, if you unfollow some shows in Apple Podcasts, they will not be unfollowed automatically in Thmanyah Radio.
