#442: a car's pick told the page `replaced`, and the page closed its player bar, so leaving the car with the episode playing left nothing on the phone to pause it. And when the car launched the app, the page loaded later and was never told anything played. Now the app sends `nowPlaying` (the item, its place, playing or not) on a car pick, at the page's `ready`, and on coming forward, and the page's bar takes it up and drives the phone's player. `replaced` is still handled for builds before this one. #443: Shows listed every feed with items, blogs included. Now only feeds with a downloaded file, and an episode only with a downloaded audio file: /media/{id} answers 404 before the download. #444: tests/native-bridge.ts read its failure count before the CarPlay checks, so those could fail and still exit 0. The count is read last now. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01RqkrVARreS9wxzH5o2rF7N

[Unreleased]
Added
- iPX on the iPhone: the page in an app, playing through the phone's own player, so an episode plays on with the screen locked and the lock screen, Control Center and a car's buttons drive it (#418).
- Player token (shake, then Player Token): an ipx API token, kept in the keychain, which the player, the badge and CarPlay send to
https://ipxapi.sdf1.netinstead of using the page's sign-in cookie, so playback does not stop when that cookie expires (#419). - The icon shows All Subscriptions' unread count, as the page's badge does: set when the app comes forward, after an item is marked read, and by a refresh iOS runs now and then while the app is closed, so it can be hours behind (#421). Reading in the app and new items arriving while it is open set it at once, and while an episode plays it is checked every quarter of an hour.
- Episodes kept on the phone, with the page's Keep button, play with no connection: the app fetches the file in the background, even with the app closed, and plays it from the phone; where you got to and what you finished offline is sent once the connection is back. Signing out removes them (#425).
- A sleep timer in the player, kept by the phone, so it pauses on time with the screen locked, fading out over the last ten seconds; and an AirPlay button beside it, for another speaker or a TV (#429).
- iPX opens with no connection, showing the lists it last had, as it does in a browser: the page's service worker now runs in the app. This is for
ipodderx.sdf1.netonly, and links to other sites open in Safari (#435). - Siri and Shortcuts: "Resume iPX", "Pause iPX", "Skip forward in iPX", "Skip back in iPX", "Set a sleep timer in iPX" and "How many unread in iPX", with nothing to set up, and each an action in Shortcuts. Resume works with the app closed, carrying on with the last episode from where you left off (#427).
- CarPlay: In Progress, Unread and Shows on the car's screen, an episode playing from where you left off and saving its place as it does on the phone, and the car's Now Playing for the rest. It lists only shows and episodes with a downloaded audio file, and the phone's player bar takes up what the car plays (#420, #442, #443).
- A widget for the home screen and lock screen: the unread count, and the episode you were on with a button to resume or pause it (#428).
- The icon's count stays right with the app closed: ipx sends it to the phone when it changes, once its
[push]is set up, in place of waiting for iOS's background refresh (#433). - Presses are felt: a light tap on play, pause, flag and pull to refresh, a success on marking read, a warning with an error (#430).
