More Buttons in Notification

Open faustaahmad opened this issue 2 years ago • 12 comments

Feature description

Currently, there are only 3 Buttons ◀️ previous song ⏸️ pause ▶️ next song

Options to enable/disable extra Buttons in Notification would be useful 🔀 shuffle/reshuffle 🔁 repeat queue 🔂 repeat song :heart_decoration: like/dislike song (#34) :rewind: fast_backward (#70) :fast_forward: fast_forward (#70)

Why do you want this feature?

Having shortcut will be useful for some users that are lazy to open the app just for clicking a button.

That will make it look messy, doesn't it? The theme of this app is minimalist and i think its just perfect this way.

More over, a notification can't have more than 5 buttons when expanded and 3 when collapsed. Also, there are other feature requests (#34, #70) that are asking for 3 other actions to be added to notification... So, there is a total of 9 candidates that needs to be displayed.

It won't look messy if user can enable/disable extra buttons to suit their needs. I don't know if that's possible, so I wouldn't expect it to be implemented soon.

The time-consuming and boring part is thinking and implementing the necessary UI to allow the user to control the actions to display

I edited your original post - we will use this issue to track the other ones.

Would like to add a suggestion myself. Add x button to kill app.

Reason : people might not know how to stop music from the app even after removing the app from recent list.

Example : (musicolet) Screenshot_20220807-212659_Musicolet

Then, such person will be either forced to listen to music until he reboots his phone (perhaps for the rest of their life) or use its brain to find the proper way to stop the music. I'll admit, these two scenarios are very scary 😱

haha i know. But thats the more likely story i can come up atm. It may just be me but i prefer it just closes straight away and not have to pause and slide the notification off.

I can already tell you I won't ever include that button, I lost so many freaking hours to find a way to avoid so lol (https://github.com/vfsfitvnm/ViMusic/issues/35). Such button would just exist to save a tap...

I thought pause » swipe to remove/stop the player is a feature, turns out to be a bug? I don't mind opening the app after it got paused & gone from notification, which usually happens when I pause & watch some videos in youtube.

You can copy the approach used in NewPipe. P.S. a close button would be nice :)

I am putting my vote on "favorite" icon, believing it wouldn't make it crowded.
