Private & self-hosted
Bring in a YouTube channel, an RSS show, or your own files. Feedcast turns them into a real podcast feed you can play here or open in any app.
Requires macOS 26 · Your files never leave your Mac
Audio or video, from wherever it lives, turned into clean podcast episodes on your Mac.
Paste a link to a channel, playlist or video. Keep the picture or take just the audio, and auto-sync pulls in new uploads.
Search Apple’s catalogue or paste a feed URL, then auto-sync new episodes into a permanent local archive.
Drop in any audio or video file and Feedcast wraps it into a proper episode with artwork and tags.
However it comes in, you get a real podcast feed in seconds.
Paste a YouTube or RSS link, or drop in a file. Feedcast detects the format for you.
It cleans up titles and artwork and generates a real RSS feed, served from your Mac.
Play it in Feedcast, or open the link in any podcast app and take it with you.
A single feed can hold a YouTube upload, a podcast and a file off your desktop, all in one place.
Video and YouTube episodes play full-frame on your Mac and hand off to your phone. Hide the video for an audio-only player with speed and a sleep timer.
Group shows however you like and let auto-sync watch each source for new uploads.
Fix a messy title or a wrong date. Rewrite the title, published date, description, author, season, episode number and link.
A small server on your Mac generates a real RSS feed. Copy the link, paste it into your app, and your show appears like any other.
Your Mac keeps the files and streams them. To reach apps that need a web address, Feedcast publishes only the feed itself.
Your audio and video live on your Mac and stream from a small built-in server. Nothing is uploaded.
Turn on hosting and the feed file is published to Cloudflare so apps can find it. It still points back to your Mac.
Apple Podcasts reads the feed over your network. Overcast, Pocket Casts and Castro need the online feed, which hosting provides.
Same app, two ways to install. Only the direct download adds YouTube import, which the Mac App Store cannot allow.
Auto-updating and sandboxed through the App Store.
A notarized download straight from feedcast.org.
YouTube import relies on a tool the Mac App Store does not allow apps to bundle, so the App Store build leaves it out. The direct download is the same app with that feature added. Local files, RSS and Apple Podcasts work the same in both.
Yes. A feed is just a collection, so it can hold episodes from any source at once. The tabs in the app only choose what you are importing, not which feeds you see.
Your media stays on your Mac and streams from a small built-in server. If you turn on online hosting, only the feed file is published to Cloudflare so other apps can find it. Your audio and video are never uploaded.
Yes. Subscribe in whatever podcast app you love and use all of its features: variable speed, your place synced across devices, AirPods and sleep timers. Apple Podcasts can read the feed over your network; for other apps or away from home, turn on online hosting.
A Mac running macOS 26 or later. Your feeds are served from your Mac, so it needs to be awake and online when other devices fetch episodes. An always-on desktop Mac like a Mac mini or iMac is ideal, though any Mac works while it is running.
