Smart stop feature and smart acceleration

Radio Thamaniya offers two smart features to enrich your podcast listening experience and make it easier to control episodes and understand their contexts. The team developed these features to save your time and help you continue listening or skip content easily and with minimal effort. These features aim to address common challenges faced by listeners, such as losing the stopping point or difficulty navigating through long segments, ensuring a smoother and more seamless listening experience that aligns with your daily lifestyle.

#What is the Smart Stop feature?

The Smart Stop feature ensures you resume listening from where you left off, solving the problem of other apps that do not save your progress and force you to start over. If you pause the episode for a few seconds and return to it immediately, the app resumes playing the audio from the same stopping point. However, if you stop playing an episode and return to complete it after several hours, the player automatically rewinds 15 seconds to help you understand the content context.

#What is the Smart Acceleration feature?

The Smart Acceleration feature gives you the ability to skip unwanted segments with complete flexibility, instead of manually moving the time bar. By quickly and consecutively tapping the forward button, the app automatically doubles the skip intervals, starting from 30 seconds and reaching a minute, then several minutes with each additional press.

If you do not like the episode content and decide not to listen to it, you can, from within the queue in the player, swipe the episode to the right to remove it from the queue directly, and the queue will automatically rearrange itself for the next episode.

#Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the Smart Stop feature work during a sudden stop?
The system rewinds you 15 seconds to recall the context if your interruption lasts several hours, while the app resumes playing immediately from the same moment if the stop is for a few seconds.

2. What happens to the episode after I skip it completely via acceleration?
The system moves you to the next episode in the queue and saves the previous episode in your listening history.
