Verbara plays podcasts from your own Plex or Audiobookshelf server, or any public podcast RSS feed you follow on the device - no server required. For Plex, your podcasts need to live in a Music library, organised so that each podcast is an album, the presenter is the artist, and each episode is a track (the questions below and the in-app “Set up your library” guide cover this). Want to try it first? Tap “Try the demo” on the sign-in screen to explore the app with sample podcasts - no server needed.
Verbara reads from a Plex Music library. Make sure your podcasts are in a Music-type library and that the app is pointed at the right server and library (Settings → Change Library). The in-app “Set up your library” guide walks through the tagging.
Ordering and grouping come from your Plex metadata - release date, track number, album (podcast), and artist (presenter). Filling those in on the server fixes it. See the in-app “Set up your library” guide.
On first launch iOS asks for Local Network permission so Verbara can reach a server on your home network - allow it. If you’re away from home, make sure remote access is enabled on your Plex server.
Yes. Verbara has no account and no backend, collects no data, and stores your Plex token only in the device Keychain. See the Privacy Policy.
Signing out wipes all local app data, and deleting the app removes everything. There is no server-side data to delete.
