##### 2026-10-29

*Fixes*

- In new-only mode, chart entries and episodes cut off by the run's maximum cost are no longer remembered as seen, so they come in the next run instead of being skipped for good.

##### 2026-10-11

*Changes*

- Show details for a chart now come from the Apple directory at Apple's pace of about 20 requests a minute, from one address. After a rate limit the actor slows down, and if Apple keeps limiting it, it stops asking instead of switching IP addresses and returns the chart rows it has.

*Fixes*

- Charts now come from Apple's official chart feed, which lists up to 100 shows per chart. A larger chart size returns 100.
- A genre now picks the shows of that genre from the country's top 100, numbered in chart order, because the feed has no genre charts. Genres also work with the top subscriber chart.
- Episode keywords match whole words and phrases, so `ai` no longer keeps every episode whose notes contain `said`. Named and numeric HTML entities such as `…` and `'` are decoded in episode titles and show notes.

##### 2026-09-23

*Features*

- First version: Apple Podcasts top charts for any country and genre, with feed URL, episode count, ratings on request, episodes on request and a new-only mode for daily chart alerts.
