Zombie episode in Instacast
I had a zombie podcast episode in Instacast. It was cached and refused to be cleared.
The solution:
- Turn on iCloud sync
- Delete Instacast from the device
- Download the app again
- Choose to use iCloud sync when asked
The downside was that I had to go through Instacast’s settings; these are not synced, and many of the defaults are not to my liking (such as auto-caching).
Also, Instacast’s iCloud sync has no feedback. If you're unsure whether the sync has worked, create a backup of your subscription list by emailing it out.
