(~25) Enhancement Ideas

[cd-FileX]

• [x] Add Button in Context Menu to add Song to Playback Queue
• [ ] Add Button in "Add to a Playlist" to create a playlist
• [X] (Add Like Button to notification)
• [X] (Remove skip seconds buttons in Notification)
• [ ] (Add an option to proxy through Piped? (I'm not into pipe))
• [ ] (Add a setting to set piped instance, at best with preset options?)
• [ ] Make player dismiss button more obvious for example by adding a stripe at the right of the pause button
• [x] (Make all buttons round instead of rectangular and eventually bigger (for ex. Player View Info and Queue Button at the bottom, context menu button in the search results))
• [ ] Replace Library > Recently Added by Recently Played or change how it works (I think played songs could be "added" because they are in the beginning added to "Most Played")
• [ ] Long pressing on a song opens the context menu or selects it

That's all I can imagine of right now what would be more or less important. If I get more Ideas I will write them below this

8/27

• [X] Add Dismiss Possibility to Notification without having to close the app (for ex. X Button or Allowing to swipe away)
• [ ] Tapping on the notification opens the player-view
• [x] Tapping on a search recommendation searches for the tapped instead of filling it in. Splitting the arrow as extra button as result
• [x] (Seems to hit better search results when the video code instead of the video link is entered. Because of this, it may would be better to split up the code from the URL and search with it (for ex. https://youtube.com/watch?v=123 -> 123, https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=WFRVDoXAqdU -> WFRVDoXAqdU,..))
• [ ] Last search recommendation shoudl'nt be hidden below UI
• [ ] Do not pause the song when it is further loaded so the users can pause the song while it is being loaded so it doesn't just continue afterwards

8/28

• [ ] Show where at time when scrolling through track
• [ ] (Reset Scroll when switching between search filter tags)
• [X] Put player notification and download notifications in different categories/groups so they're not collapsed all together
• [ ] Display that tapping on "downloaded" will remove the song from downloads
• [ ] (Show download button besides context menu)
• [ ] Show download status for each song (doesn't have to be the status how far the download is but if it is while, finished or not)
• [ ] When clicking on the Downloading XX Songs Notification opens a page with all downloads, if possible current and finished and status. This should also be available in the main menu somewhere, maybe in the settings
• [X] Show user the crash reason and log he would be about to send and let them have the choice for other possibilities than mail if possible

8/30

• [X] Replace Skip seconds buttons in small notification with skip song buttons
• [x] Double tapping home, search or plalists gets you back to the main screen of that view

8/31

• [ ] Display now playing queue in playing order (for ex. if shuffle)

9/1

• [ ] ~~Display header/title gradient just after scrolling away from playlist/album/... cover with gradient~~ Smoothen the title appearance and sync it with the disappearance of the cover etc.
• [ ] Display error message, at best with option to change API, if API request failed, for ex. timeout or gateway error
• [x] (Actually skip song if not found, else blocks the whole playback. Also show notice why the song was skipped) -> refer to 9/2 for better solution
• [ ] Add Play Button to library's auto-playlists (Favorite,..)
• [x] (Add Shuffle Playback button to all playlists)
• [x] Display Home/Search/Library selected button correctly when in playlist in the switched-to-tab
• [ ] (Display more information about the selectable piped instances, for ex. Response time, CloudFlare,..)
• [ ] Show selected instance in the radio buttons

9/2

• [ ] If Song not found, let user select a result from piped as the song for playback. Save it somewhere so they don't have to reselect and do not forget of letting them also switch back without song not found
• [x] Convert text to link for "lyrics provided by ..."
• [ ] Display Piped or Invidious Video link in the song information instead of the YouTube link or as well

9/3

• [X] If no description (for ex. of artist) remove it or display "No description" (currently displaying "null")
• [ ] Sort and search button for playlists, especially the special playlists in Library (Favorite,..)

9/4

• [X] Blend out skip button or show that skip is not possible (same with " backskip")

9/5

• [ ] (just perfection: real Music Animation in Playing Queue)

9/11

• [x] Sort playlists like Favorite in last added as standard

9/14

• [ ] Show extended view when tapping on one of the titles (for ex. "New Releases") in home screen or add an extra button for it ~~and remove the animation~~

Thanks for recommend. You can swipe mini-player to the right and you can see close button

You can swipe mini-player to the right and you can see close button

I didn't know that until I tried to skip the song so a small indicator would be good I think

0.13beta

9/28

• [x] Move Description of song below other information as it is usually pretty big. Or add an extend button. Another option would be to move it to the most bottom of where the lyrics are and add an extend button.
• [x] Design all notification buttons in the same way
• [x] Make the real button size of skip and back buttons in player view bigger (so add some padding around the image in there)
• [ ] I think the above would also be good for other buttons like info but not that much like the skip and back button
• [ ] Add a better indicator for if loop is on or off in notif
• [ ] make description of playback settings clearer: Save shuffle and repeat mode for everything that is played (?) / Save last played track and queue in case of restart (for ex.)
• [ ] connect settings' description/title and button
• [ ] if possible let skip silence only skip silent parts that are longer than XX, so small parts in songs which are some more calm aren't being skipped
• [ ] make English translations available to be checked by the public as there are still some faults (like "Recently Songs" > "Recent Songs" / "Recently played songs"
• [x] Remove play notification on crash
• [ ] When skipping in the playbar while playing, the bar is being set to the current play position every second
• [ ] Give user a better option that just copying the error log to their clipboard. This way the user has to really want to help the project, copy it, search the issues page, make a new issue and paste it. There should be a more direct way that allows the user to easily and fastly upload it.
• [ ] Currently things like the artist description are hidden under the player
• [ ] Long press a link to copy, for ex. in Song info

10/18

• [ ] Add newlines between single bullets in new version available changelog

10/20

• [ ] Add option in the new version available changelog to redirect to F-Droid (or Playstore?) to download new version

[cd-FileX]

0.14beta 10/21

• [ ] Queue and song info button are hidden under the OS back, home, apps buttons

10/24

• [x] The song image is still sometimes not updated when skipping songs in background per notification

10/29

• [x] There are still the background animation for the category listings. For example in Moods & Moment's Chill, if you tap on "Chilled" there is the animation that was removed for the other categories directly in home

11/09

• [ ] Add option to not download update and not show the notice again (especially in case if you don't add a "update from F-Droid" button)

11/11

• [ ] If updating local playlistname, the name does not update in the current playlist view

11/25

• [ ] Add search and real country names to "Content Country" in settings

[cd-FileX]
