Watch: Overriding Up Next and resetting episode status

Description

We've asked a few users to uninstall the Watch app to see if it helps:

• Stop the Up Next queue from adding back episodes that they have either completed or archived without completing.
• Reset episode progress of unfinished episodes.

We got confirmation from a user on our forum that it helped: https://forums.pocketcasts.com/forums/topic/archived-and-played-episodes-reappear-in-up-next/?view=all#post-2994

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

Unclear since I could not replicate, but simply having the Watch connection to your Pocket Casts account seems to cause this issue for some users

I have the same issue: Pocket Casts v7.58.0.3 iPhone 15 Pro iOS 17.4 (21E219) Apple Watch Series 9 watchOS 10.4 (21T216)

I originally thought having the app installed on my Android phone was the source of the conflict and deleted the app from there but still had this happen.

I just came across the forum post and I have not tried uninstalling the watch app yet so can't be sure if that's the source of the problem.

Watch app is configured to use phone as source. Non-plus account.

Pocket Casts v7.57 iPhone15,3 iOS 17.3.1

The source is always the phone.

Same problem here. iOS 17.4.1, iPhone 12 mini. Latest WatchOS (10.4). Annoying, had to delete 20 episodes or so from the queu manually.
