View only downloaded episodes #33

Proposal: View only downloaded episodes

Summary

As a user who has previously downloaded episodes via the episode view, I want to be able to view a filtered list of only episodes I have downloaded, so that I can catch up on episodes when I am offline/on the train/in the car etc.

Rationale

  • Mobile users will regularly use their devices to listen to podcasts when in transit with either no Wifi/mobile signal or patchy reception
  • The download feature is useful, but limited in it's usage unless you can find the episode you previously downloaded again
  • Mobile storage space is limited. Allowing large audio files to be downloaded without any means of auditing and cleaning up the listened/unwanted episodes may result in users uninstalling the app in frustration

Scope

This is related to #28 but a separate request. Having downloaded items added to the "saved" list is useful - but that list may be a superset of downloaded and non-downloaded episodes.

Important Notes

Open Questions

  • Should Downloaded be a filter applied on the Saved view or a separate view entirely?
  • Could management of downloaded episodes be done through a Settings section?
  • Should file size be shown to help with manual cleanup?
