We’ve released more features and improvements since our last update. Here’s what’s new.
Private Feed Email Notifications
Listeners who subscribe to private shows using podcast apps like Apple Podcasts and Pocket Casts receive push notifications on their device when a new episode is published (provided they have them switched on).
However, sometimes you want to give your subscribers a nudge to remind them to listen.
So to help you get their attention we’ve released two new automated email notifications that you can configure for your private shows.
New Episode Published Reminder
This email notification is sent to all subscribers as soon as your new episode is published. Think of it as the email version of a push notification.
Don’t forget to listen Reminder!
This email notification is sent 3 days after your episode is published, to all listeners who haven’t tuned in to your episode. You can set-up these notifications on the “Private Feeds” tab for your show by clicking the “Customize” button.
Private Feed Self-Serve (Invite) Links
This feature allows you to share a single link with listeners who are on approved (“white-listed”) email domains, so that they can access their own private feed.
For example, we share a single Show link with all Whooshkaa employees. Anyone with an email address ending in @whooshkaa.com (our company email domain) can click the link and sign up to gain access to our Private Show.
If someone tries to sign up with an email that doesn’t end in @whooshkaa.com they will be denied access.
You can find out how to “white-list” your company domain and distribute private show self-serve links in our support documentation.
Show Groups
If you have multiple shows, life just got easier.
As the name suggests, Show Groups allow you to ‘group shows’ to make admin tasks like Insights Reporting, Private Feed and Single-Sign On management even easier.
You can learn more about Show Groups and how to create them in this support article.
Media Library Interface Improvements
We’ve refreshed the Media Library to make managing your files more straight forward.
When you select a file from your Media Library list a new flyout menu will appear containing a file preview, information and links to trigger relevant functions like Transcription.
To see it in action, navigate to your Media Library and click on a file.
