What is the difference between Lite and Full Feature (Pro) versions?

Lite version has all the features of the Pro version except:

  • You will be able to update only one feed at a time.
  • You can download only one episode at a time.
  • You can play episodes only at normal speed.
  • Chromecast support will be disabled.
  • Scheduling of automatic updates will be disabled.
  • EpisodeSync will be disabled.
When using the Lite version, you can still add feeds, update, download and play your episodes. The main limitation is that in order to get the latest episodes, you have to manually open each feed and refresh it. To refresh the feed use the "Refresh" button located in the top right corner. Once the feed is updated, use the "Download" button to download episodes you want one at a time.


To unlock the Full feature (Pro) version, you can purchase an "unlock key" (use Menu > More > Purchase Unlock Key from within BeyondPod). BeyondPod Unlock Key is a small Android application that can be purchased from the Google Play Store. Once BeyondPod detects that the Unlock Key Application is installed on the device it will automatically unlock all Pro features. (There is no need to "start"" the Unlok Key Application - just make sure it is listed in the list of installed applications on the device).

You can use the same unlock key for both the Phone and the Tablet versions of BeyondPod.
