New York Times ditches its audio app, consolidating podcasts in primary mobile app
"The New York Times announces today that it will discontinue its podcast app. The podcast program continues normal production, and the shows can be accessed in the New York Times app (which has recently been redesigned), and other apps. (We observe that the podcast is easily played in Spotify.)"
"The changeover date is October 3. Full access to the NYT app requires a subscription to the Times, available at the Times website and also via Apple Podcasts and Spotify. [INFO]"
"We observe that the AI Overview of "NYTimes listening app launch" refers to a start date of May, 2023. However, we covered the beta launch of New York Times Audio on October 12, 2021. We'll take our history, and observe that the app was in operation for four years."
The New York Times will discontinue its standalone podcast app on October 3. Podcast production continues normally and shows will be accessible through the redesigned New York Times app and third-party apps such as Spotify. Full access to the New York Times app requires a Times subscription, available via the Times website and through Apple Podcasts and Spotify. The standalone app operated for four years following a beta launch on October 12, 2021. External AI overviews show inconsistent launch and shutdown dates, with one noting May 2023 and another listing September 4, 2025.
