Keep newest episodes download

I couldn't find the template mentioned in the submission guide so I'm sorry if there isn't enough information here.

Problem

The auto delete features and working for me. I sometimes listen to podcasts on other devices or other apps, And those won't trigger the auto-delete feature. However, I still like to have more recent episodes downloaded for offline listening. Therefore, I attempt to pile up many episodes that I don't want or need and have to go manually delete them, which is less than ideal.

Solution:

I propose a feature where you can have a certain number of the newest episodes downloaded, say 5. The feature would then auto delete an older episode when a newer episode comes out and download that one instead.

Our mobile phone storage can download thousands of podcasts, and 99% of the time we can completely ignore them, just select them once and delete them. Also, I think the time dimension should be used instead of the quantity dimension. For example, "Delete 1/3/7 days ago" podcasts , it will delete not only the files but also the episodes list.
