Deleting podcast episodes on iPhone

Delete Podcast Episode

Delete Podcast Episode

When I am on the way I mostly consume my favourite podcasts instead of listening to music. When beeing back on my Mac I see which episodes are played in iTunes and then I do mark and delete them. But when I have listened to different podcasts I really hate it to search through my quite long directory and delete them manually one by one.

Today I have detected, that I can delete episodes directly on the iPhone which saves me some time and unconvinient title seeking.

When beeing in the episode list, slide the “unwanted” episode from left to right. The red delete button known from other built in applications will fade in. You can either click it to delete or slide again this entry to remove the button.

    I downloaded a free podcast from the list of available ones,but it did not register as downloaded. So I wonder because it is already in the iphone3G is there no way to delete it because I tried the running my finger over the episode, but nothing happens.

    That episodes I deleted were coming and synced from iTunes. The Firmware used is 2.1.1.
