Blubrry Hosting users can submit their podcast to Apple Podcasts directly from the Blubrry Podcaster Dashboard. Submitting to Apple Podcasts places your show in apps that use the Apple Podcasts directory, including Overcast, Pocket Casts, Castro, Downcast, Podcast Republic, iCatcher!, Podhero, and RadioPublic.
If your show isn't hosted with Blubrry, you can submit it directly at podcastsconnect.apple.com. You'll need an Apple Podcasts Connect account — see Apple's instructions for creating one.
Before you begin
Your show information needs to be complete before you can submit. If anything is missing, you'll be asked to fill in your author name, language, and Apple Podcasts categories first.
Your show must also meet Apple's requirements. See Apple Podcasts Submission Requirements.
Submit your show
- Sign in to your Blubrry Podcaster Dashboard.
