I need to go through the Apple Podcasts app and finish adding my podcasts from there to Overcast. I'm never forgiving Apple for not allowing something as simple as an OPML export.

@acarson @weirdwriter Never used it but here’s an Apple Shortcut someone created to export your Apple Podcasts Library to an opml file.
When you’ve added it to Shortcuts, tap its icon to run the shortcut. On iOS it’ll display a folder in the Files app so that you can select the location where you want to save the opml export. Once you’ve done that open the Files app itself at that folder and you’ll see a file called ApplePodcasts saved there for use for importing.
@acarson @weirdwriter The post about and link to the Shortcut: https://haroldgao.com/post/opml/
NB. If you tap the ellipsis on the icon before adding it, you can review the Shortcut code.
Edit: just noticed the same person has an Import OPML into Apple Podcasts shortcut on the same page as well, in case you need to go back.

@JonnyT @weirdwriter Wow thanks *a ton* for sharing this.
@acarson @weirdwriter No problem. Potentially something I’d find a use for in the future so your question prompted me to take a look at Shortcuts. Kind of suspected someone may have created one already.
@acarson @weirdwriter (And hopefully it works after all this!)
@JonnyT @weirdwriter That reminds me I need to get back to my own shortcuts project. I should do that this weekend.
