4 weeks ago I kind of understand the question, but have no clue as how to implement it. I looked at the Spotify, Qobuz, Apple Music and Amazon Music apps and none of them have a multi select option (that I could find). In all lists, there is just a context menu on long press (except in the player queue, as long press will allow order change).
The additional challenge is: ReFreezer is meant to also work on TV (there is still some fixes the figure out), so with remote control, making e.g. actions only on swipe, not really an option.
The only solution I can see, is in some lists add a selection toggle button in the app bar to toggle selection checkboxes and a global menu to select actions that can be executed on the selection. This would clutter the UI a bit on mobile devices.
Can you give an example streaming app that has this feature so I can look how it's implemented there?

🚀 Feature Request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, users must perform actions on tracks individually, which can be time-consuming and inefficient. This limitation becomes especially frustrating when managing large playlists or libraries, where batch actions could save significant time and enhance user experience.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see the implementation of a list selection feature that allows users to select multiple tracks simultaneously. This feature would enable actions such as playlist creation, adding or removing tracks from playlists, and adding tracks to the queue in bulk, streamlining the management of music libraries.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The only alternative is to perform actions manually, one by one, which is inefficient and cumbersome, especially when dealing with multiple tracks.
Additional context
Implementing a list selection feature would not only improve efficiency but also enhance overall user satisfaction by providing a more intuitive and user-friendly interface for managing tracks in bulk. This feature would be beneficial for a wide range of users, from casual listeners to avid music curators.
