Also, remember that if you have downcast set to download only when connected to a wifi connection which I think is the default then it will not complete the download until you have said connection.

So if you run the app and then switch to another app, Downcast can keep going for a bit, fetching your podcasts and updating your feeds. But if you don't switch back from time to time, it's eventually going to time out and stop doing that. They implemented the location awareness feature to get around this. So for example it can be set up to update your feeds when you arrive at the airport.

Double-tap the rEfresh button near the top of the screen, and Downcast should do it.

However, today around 2:30, I was listening to a podcast, and got done, and just left Downcast running in the background. I checked it about 30 minutes ago to see if any new podcast where available, and nothing was available. However, when I opened up podcast five new episodes all of a sudden became available. Why is this? Why isn't the podcasts refreshing themselves automatically? I thought that when you left Downcast Running in the background, and you had everything set up to automatically refresh, that it would without having to open up the app. Any ideas? Thanks.
