How to Enable Transcripts for Apple Podcasts

If you love podcasts like me, you're probably always wishing for ways to get the most out of your listening experience.

Well, you might just have wished it into existence as Apple Podcasts now offers transcripts of podcast episodes. This means you can follow along word-for-word, revisit key points, and even deep-dive into specific facts within an episode, making listening to your favourite shows more accessible and interactive.

This guide highlights how you can use the transcripts feature on Apple Podcasts. But first things first, how do you enable transcripts?

First things first, make sure your software is up-to-date. It's important to note that transcripts are currently only available on iOS and iPadOS 17.4.
