Stitcher podcasts app to cease operations
Stitcher, a prominent player in the podcasting industry, has made the strategic decision to wind down its operations, bringing an end to its platform's services and leaving podcast listeners in search of alternative options.
After a successful run of 15 years in the podcasting industry, Stitcher, the renowned podcasting app founded in 2008, is bidding farewell. The decision to shut down the app comes as a consequence of its acquisition by SiriusXM. Throughout its existence, Stitcher has provided podcast enthusiasts with a vast collection of shows, offering a diverse range of content.

Notably, it stood out from the crowd by granting users the opportunity to enjoy selected podcasts without any pesky advertisements. As Stitcher prepares to close its digital doors, it leaves behind a legacy of audio entertainment that has enriched the podcasting landscape.
Stitcher stated it will cease its operations on August 29, 2023
In a recent announcement, Stitcher has confirmed that it will halt its operations on August 29, 2023, leading to the closure of both the Stitcher app and website. However, SiriusXM, the owner of Stitcher, clarified that the podcast studios will remain unaffected and continue their operations.
While it is disappointing to witness the departure of this long-standing podcasting app, users can take solace in the fact that the podcasts themselves will remain accessible through alternative platforms like Spotify, Pocket Casts, and YouTube Music. Stitcher has also assured customers with Premium subscriptions that they will receive refunds, and auto-renewals will be canceled.
The Stitcher app and website will discontinue operations on August 29, 2023. For information on how to export your show list and other questions, please visit: https://t.co/4plo5KCf46
