Apple today announced the launch of a Podcasts on the web feature, which works in Safari, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox on Macs, PCs, and other devices. Podcasts on the web allows users to search for, browse through, and listen to podcasts with access to the Up Next queue and library when signed in to an Apple Account.
Apple Podcasts on the web works like the Apple Podcasts app, and users can subscribe to and get updates for their favorite shows. Apple has long had a podcasts feature that allowed podcasts to be listened to on the web when embedded in an article, but now there is a dedicated website on devices without a Podcasts app.
You can check out Podcasts on the web by going to Apple's podcasts.apple.com site. Note that if you have the Podcasts app installed on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, the website will open the app automatically rather than directing you to the web.

This is also the largest known Apple acquisition since the company purchased Intel's smartphone modem business and patents for $1 billion in 2019.

We're less than two months out from the launch of Apple's premium next-generation smartphone lineup, and while we're not expecting a dramatic change in terms of functionality, there are still several enhancements rumored to be coming to the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max.
One thing worth noting is that Apple is reportedly planning a major change to its iPhone release cycle this year,...
Music, Maps, Podcasts... Is TV+ coming next ? Netflix has a website where you can watch their content, it would be equivalent.
It basically confirms that the native app was just a web wrapper (except from the toolbar on the left which is native). A bummer : It's also only available in English - no other language. I don't understand why since the app seems to share so many assets, and the app is localized in so many languages already.
