I am having trouble with the link method in both Overcast and Pocket Cast. I copy the link and then replace the User Name / Password. Pocket Cast gives me an error message. Overcast crashes.

<p>Try resetting your password and exclude special characters. Try something that is just alphanumeric. That worked for me.</p>
<blockquote><a href="#109170"><em>In reply to fuzzsdad:</em></a></blockquote><p>Same here. Was working, now not so much. Got the April 28th episode but nothing after.</p>
<blockquote><a href="#111602"><em>In reply to Brad Sams:</em></a> Whatever happened, On my end it is working again. I did several things. I removed the feed, put it back, disabled anti-virus, re-enabled it and now it works. Thanks!</blockquote><p><br></p>
<blockquote><a href="#111737"><em>In reply to fuzzsdad:</em></a> As of May 4th it is not working again. There are many with this same problem. I use Grover but others have mentioned Overcast. Server not letting us through.</blockquote><p><br></p>
<blockquote><a href="#111602"><em>In reply to Brad Sams:</em></a></blockquote><p>Yeah I tried Overcast and it's been working for months and I tried setting it up again with nothing but failures! I want the latest podcasts about the Surface Laptop!!!!!</p>
<p>Having the same issue with Grover Pro on Win10 Mobile. I noticed it after 5/1. I Unsubscribed but cannot re-subscribe. Grover supports feeds that require user auth. I double checked the UN & PW but it still fails to subscribe. Going through withdrawal here… </p>
<blockquote><a href="#112551"><em>In reply to daveevad:</em></a> If you read my post below, I forgot to mention I ALSO changed my password and used ONLY alpha numeric characters. As far as I know, mine is still working however very slowly. It takes forever to finally feed an episode and start downloading. No special characters in the password. I use Grover free version.</blockquote><p><br></p>
<blockquote><a href="#112638"><em>In reply to fuzzsdad:</em></a> Update: It is not working again. Did not pull today's podcast at all after a long wait. So, it is broke again.</blockquote><p><br></p>
<p>So for me on May 6th this is fixed. Episode 144 never showed up in the feed, but whatever, I'll watch it online. Thank you to whoever fixed this.</p>
<p>Ah dang, I subscribed mainly for the daily podcast. It seems busted. I go to the rss feed with a browser and it doesn't accept my credentials. It's almost as if there's a web server that's hosting the http auth, but whatever data source it's using isn't recognizing my account. I changed my password to alpha numeric characters only and it won't work with that either. Using Grover Pro on a Windows 10 PC.</p>
