New for Podcasts in iOS 11: Apple is bringing a handful of new podcasts features to iOS 11, both for users and creators. The new features were highlighted during a developer session on Friday and include a redesign to the Podcasts design, updates to the Podcasts spec, and more…

Apple opened its podcasts session at WWDC with some stats on its current Podcasts offering. The company touted that it currently houses 400,000 podcasts with 14,000,000 total episodes. Those shows have been downloaded some 10 million times:

Headlining the new Podcasts app with iOS 11 is an interface redesign. While the overall idea of the app remains the same, Apple is making some tweaks to the design to improve the user experience.

There are four new tabs along the bottom of the interface: Listen Now, Library, Browse, and Search.
