Hi! I started using the Watch stock podcasts app in the gym and it shows a lot of unplayed episodes in playlists and in the show details view. Some of those episodes where certainly played while others are previous from when I subscribed to the show and I’m not interested in as they are outdated.

Went to iPhone and in a per-podcast basis I hit the “mark all as played” button only keeping the ones I’m interested in, but it appears not to be syncing since they still appear in the watch. But I didn’t find a similar button in the Watch app or options. Any help is appreciated

Watch app shows episodes from two years ago, they’re not showing in iPhone main app

    In my playlist on the watch podcast app I see three dots in the right hand corner of each podcast episode and when I tap those dots it opens another menu and I can mark episodes I am not interested in as played, so directly on the watch. I find this extremely helpful, because I also sometimes have unwanted episodes in the list. I also use that menu to change airplay destinations. I am on the latest watchOS, AW series 8. Do you have those dots?

    I get this issue. I usually select the first one by swiping to the left and marking it as played. This kind of kicks the sync into gear and it fixes for that show. Have to do it each time I reset the watch though.
