   Find and press the Podcasts tile to open the application

   It has a blue background with a white microphone in the middle. We can see the tile near the top of the screen on this device. If the Podcasts tile is not pinned to the home screen, swipe left and find it in the apps menu. Tapping on it will take us into the Podcasts application. We want to demonstrate how to allow streaming, which will allow us to stream podcasts directly from the website without having to download them.

   The second option is "Allow streaming", and it is currently on

   .

   This means that we can stream podcasts from the internet. It does take up a lot of bandwidth and it does cost money if we're roaming or if we're over our data limit. That is why there is an option to turn it on or off. Sometimes we may want to allow streaming if we have a wireless connection with a company with a fixed rate. If we are with a company and we have to pay for what we use, we may not want to allow streaming and would prefer to download them.
