Apple Podcasts is one of the podcast platform most used by users, since it is quite simple, both for them and for creators, and generally generates quite a few reproductions.
However, apparently from Apple they have detected a problem on this platform, which this time is causing content creators have seen a decline in views, according to the analytics that the firm provides for the creators.
And it is that, apparently, there were many people protesting this very thing, which led to an internal investigation by Apple, to see why Few reproductions are represented in the Analytics Tool they offer With respect to the usual, which has finally triggered in that it is a failure on your part.
Although the worst is not that, it is that Apple has opened a series of periods in which creators will not be able to submit new programs, as they are likely to experience quite a few delays in terms of their approval:

We have received reports of sharp drops in consumption in reporting. We are investigating these figures as they do not match the Podcast Analytics playback data.
Shipping delay times
If you plan to release new shows on Apple Podcasts in November or December, be aware of the following lag periods for submission activity:
- From November 16, 2018 to November 26, 2018
- From December 21, 2018 to January 2, 2019
If you have sent a program to publish on any occasion, the most normal thing is that in the next few days you will receive an email informing you above all this, so that you do not send content during those days if you do not want to experience any type of delay.
