Chapter element support across apps

Modified on Tue, 12 Aug at 11:26 PM

When you create a chapter in RSS.com, you can enrich it with timestamps, custom chapter art, and clickable links. These elements make your episodes more interactive and visually engaging, especially in players that fully support Podcasting 2.0 or Podlove Simple Chapters.


However, not all podcast apps display chapters in the same way. Some may ignore images or links, while others might only show timestamps or basic text. This means that, depending on where your audience listens, certain chapter features may not appear exactly as you intended.


By combining chapters with timestamps in your episode description, you can make sure listeners still have an easy way to navigate your content across all platforms.


Here’s a quick overview of which features are supported by the most common listening platforms:
