I only have ‘List’ view now in the podcasts section. I haven’t had much time to investigate, but I don’t think it’s server related. I first noticed it a couple of weeks ago on my phone (Galaxy S9+), but it was fine on my Galaxy Tab S6, which is what I use to listen to podcasts during the day. The Tab typically updates after my phone and, starting yesterday, I’m experiencing the same thing on my Tab.
The row up at the top with ‘Play,’ ‘Shuffle,’ ‘Download,’ ‘Grid/List View,’ and the ‘More Options’ icons is completely gone. I know of no other way to change the view. It’s just the Podcasts section and, in List view, you can’t see which podcasts have new episodes.
I’ve cleared cache, cleared data, as well as completely uninstalled and re-installed.
