Apple Podcasts Category List

Let's Pick Your Podcast Categories

When creating your RSS feed (with Libsyn at least), you're able to select three category options.

However, most apps/platforms will only recognize the first category selection that is listed in the feed so make sure it's the most relevant one.

There are two options for categories; Main and Sub-Categories. I recommend selecting entirely sub-categories if you can.

Below are the current categories available in Apple Podcasts as of July 22, 2019.
