hey this is paul from wondershare mobile trans and i was browsing reddit the other day and i
saw this question from somebody someone was asking that they would like to listen to
their podcasts but they are stuck on itunes and how can they get that over to their android phone
and believe it or not we get this question quite often because people get a brand new
android phone and then they want to move their podcast from their itunes or their iphone over
to that android phone so they don't stop listening to their favorite podcasts and
of course if you don't know how to do it it might be a little bit confusing or seem
a little bit tricky but lucky for you today i am going to show you four different methods on
how you can move your podcasts from your iphone or itunes over to your brand new android phone
first of all i love listening to podcasts and if i brought a new android phone and i couldn't
take my podcast with me i'd be quite upset so luckily for you today we are going to show you
four different methods that will help you move your podcast to your android phone and every
single one of these methods are really easy and they're fairly quick as well so shouldn't take
too long but let me show you and let's get into method number one
method number one is to use a piece of software called mobile trends and mobile trans is a great
piece of software that allows you to move data over to your android from an ios device and
the good news is that it is really quick and you can do this without much
effort at all the application can be downloaded on both mac and windows pcs so no matter what device
you have you can use mobile trans and that is great because it is so easy it can happen within
a couple of minutes it takes just a few clicks and if you want to go and download it if you check the
description below we'll put a link in there so you can go and download this mobile trans software so
let me show you the steps you need to go through using mobile trans to make sure your podcasts are
transferred over to your android device the first thing you'll need to do of course is download it
and like i said there is a link in the description below if you want to go and do that and then what
you'll need to do is grab your iphone and head into itunes and make sure you back up your phone
to its latest backup this is just so you have all of your podcasts that you've listened to over the
past couple of weeks or some of the ones that you haven't listened to yet they're saved for
when you transfer them over then what you'll need to do is head into mobile trans and on that main
interface if you have a look at the lower right you will see an option that says restore and this
is what you need to select at this point you'll need to connect your android device
to mobile trans and once you've done it with a good working usb cable then mobile trans should
detect that android phone within just a couple of seconds and that will appear on the right hand
side of the screen on the left hand side of the screen you will see a couple of different options
and make sure here you select itunes backup files once you've selected that you will see
a list of the itunes backup files that you've just backed up to your computer and older ones as well
here if you just select the latest backup this is the one that should have those most recent
podcasts on it to transfer over to your android phone and it might look like you can't see a
podcast option there but not to worry because the podcasts do move over but under other data all you
need to do then is select start and depending on how much data that you have to transfer over it
could be done in seconds or it could just take a couple of minutes so while it's doing that
just sit back and relax and then your podcast will be transferred over to your android phone
okay method two is for people who specifically have a mac computer and don't worry if you have
a windows computer i will show you a step in a minute as well after this one this is one of
those methods that again is really quick and just takes a couple of steps but what you'll need to do
first of all is make sure you open your finder window and if you look in the top part of that
finder window in the menu bar you should see an option that says go once you click on that you
should then go to the bottom of that drop down menu and select go to folder and you can do this
as well by using the buttons shift command and g at the same time here a little box will pop up and
then what you need to do is put in the following commands so you can see it on screen now and what
we'll do is put this in the description as well so you can copy and paste it in so it's nice and easy
when you hit enter you'll then be in a folder called group containers and all you need to do
here is open up that second file that starts with 243lu that's the folder that you'll need
then select library and inside there just select cache this is then where you should see all those
podcasts that you have downloaded to your podcasts app on your mac the next step is to make sure
you've downloaded something called android file transfer and then once you've downloaded that
connect your android and then open up the android file transfer application this is then when you'll
see a load of different folders but ignore all of them and you need to look for podcasts when you
find it then the next step is really simple you drag and drop the podcast from the finder window
into that podcast folder on your android and that is it you have now moved all of your podcasts
from your mac over to your android phone and it was that simple it just took a couple of minutes
okay now message three like i promised before is for people that don't have a mac but have a
windows pc and it's fairly similar to the previous step but there are just a couple of differences so
let me show you what you need to do you'll first need to make sure you're subscribed to a podcast
so what you'll need to do is open up itunes and find that podcast option this should be in the top
left and it should just be in that drop down menu if you don't see any podcast here what you'll have
to do is head to the store and subscribe to one of the podcasts that you think that might be for you
you'll then need to make sure you've downloaded a few episodes to your computer and to do this
once you've subscribed just select that little cloud option next to the episode and then the
download will begin now the next step is to find where those podcasts have been downloaded to
on your pc and this is really simple you then need to go to the start menu and just search this pc
and then once you've selected that just select music you'll see a folder that says itunes and
then inside that folder you will see a folder that says itunes media select that and then this
is where you should see a podcast folder this is then where all those podcasts that you've
downloaded through itunes will be stored now with your android phone connected to your pc
just navigate into the folder that should say podcasts and just like the previous method it is
now as simple as dragging and dropping them from the pc into the phone and that is it and it is
as simple as that all those itunes podcasts that it had downloaded and stored on your pc have now
been moved from your pc over to your android phone for you to listen to and it was as simple as that
okay method four is the final method and this is probably the most simple method
out of all of them so before going to the drastic measures of the first three steps
what you could do is simply just subscribe to those podcasts on your new android phone there
are loads of different podcast apps out there and if you go into the google store and just search
podcast you'll see things like pocketcasts podbean google podcasts and of course now
if you have spotify downloaded onto your phone you can listen and subscribe to your favorite podcasts
on spotify as well and if you don't have access to a pc or a mac then this might be the easiest
method for you and my favorite podcast player at the moment has to be spotify if you open up
spotify all you need to do in the search menu is just search your favorite podcast name it will pop
up and then you can follow or subscribe to it and then it is that easy that podcast that you were
listening to on your itunes is now available for you to listen to on your android phone
there you go four really easy ways there to make sure that your podcasts have been moved from your
itunes library over to your android phone and remember the first method we showed you was
mobile trans and mobile trans moved over your podcast data in just a couple of minutes and is
available on both windows and mac so no matter what device you have you can use this transfer
tool and not miss out on any of its fantastic benefits not only can it help you move over
your podcast data it can also help you back up your whatsapp data to the computer so you always
have it there for safe keeping and what else it can do is it can move your whatsapp data from an
android to an ios device or ios to android so there is a lot that mobile trans can do if this
