Common Questions

How long does Apple Podcasts review take?
Apple manually reviews all new podcast submissions, which typically takes 1–5 business days. This is longer than Spotify's automated review (24–72 hours). Once your show is approved, new episodes submitted via RSS appear in Apple Podcasts within a few hours — no further reviews required.
What cover art does Apple Podcasts require?
Apple Podcasts requires cover art that is exactly 3000×3000 pixels, in JPG or PNG format, at minimum 72 DPI. The image must not contain explicit content and should clearly display your show name. PodGorilla's show setup guides you through uploading a compliant image before RSS submission.
How do I set the right category for Apple Podcasts?
During show setup in PodGorilla, you select your podcast's primary and secondary categories from Apple's official category list. Correct categorization is important for Apple Podcasts search and browse placement. Popular categories include Business, Education, True Crime, News, Health & Fitness, and Technology.
What happens if my podcast episode has explicit content?
Apple Podcasts requires creators to flag episodes containing explicit language or adult content. PodGorilla includes an explicit content flag in your RSS feed metadata — you can set this at the show level or per-episode. Unflagged explicit content can result in show removal from Apple's directory.
How do I make my podcast searchable in Apple Podcasts quickly?
After Apple approves your show (1–5 business days), your podcast appears in Apple's directory. To improve discoverability, use a keyword-rich show title and description when setting up your PodGorilla Series. Consistent publishing frequency and listener reviews within Apple Podcasts also boost your visibility in category charts.
