Yes, if you are using Castbox on Android, iOS or web system, by logging in with the same account, your subscriptions, playback progress, favorites, history could be synced across devices.
Please note that preferences and settings don't sync across devices. If you change device or reinstall the app, you need to set up again.
The sync feature could work in our latest Android, iOS app and our web version.
Normally, if you log in the app across devices using the same account, the sync feature will work every 20-30 minutes. After subscribing to a podcast, and after 20-30 minutes, it could display on other versions.
If you want the podcasts to stay in sync with each device instantly, we are afraid you need to kill the app first and then relog in.
For example, you subscribe to a podcast on your Android app, and you'd like to get it on your iOS app instantly. Then you should: log out of the Android version, and kill the app from the background, then log in; and go to your iOS app, log out and log in. Thus this newly subscribed podcast could appear in your subscriptions on the iOS version.
The same process works for the instant sync to our web version.
