My Question or Issue

I can't access podcasts on any spotify instance. Not on my phone, PC client, or a web browser. The podcasts option is completely omitted from searches, discover tab, and more. Are spotify podcasts region locked in my country?

Hello @gabodaty, 

Thank you for reaching out here in the Community!

I can confirm that podcasts are currently not available in Egypt.

There's no specific timeline when they will become available, but I'd suggest submitting an idea in the Idea Exchange for it, so that you and other members of the Community can vote for it. 

Hope you'll find this helpful!

That's unfortunate. Thanks for the information.

You're welcome, @gabodaty and thank you for accepting my answer as solution. 

Hopefully podcasts will be available in your region soon!

Have a great weekend 🙂
