Apple on Tuesday officially unveiled its own dedicated podcast application for iOS devices dubbed “Podcasts.” Earlier this month, developers noticed that the podcast button was missing from iTunes in the iOS 6 beta, which hinted that this app was on the horizon. “Podcasts app is the easiest way to discover, subscribe to and play your favorite podcasts on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch,” Apple says on the Podcasts product page. The application supports video and audio podcasts, includes a top stations option, the ability to stream or download full episodes, sync with iTunes and much more. Here’s the complete list of features:
