Remove songs in playlist #897

Open gummyhulk opened 7 hours ago

gummyhulk commented 7 hours ago

Description

This isn't about deleting a file but rather a song from a playlist. It seems the feature doesn't exist.

Problem solved

It's annoying to not be able to delete it since it just stands in the playlist gathering dust, especially if I've already deleted the file and want to remove the song from a playlist.

Other implementations

Other music players like Metro have a basic function to be able to choose a song in a playlist and remove it.

Benefit

It benefits everyone because you can more easily customise your playlists.

Duplicates

It's not the most obvious but the steps for removing tracks from a playlist are:

  1. Open the playlist and click the pencil icon to toggle edit mode.
  2. Swipe left on the track desired to be removed. It will display a brief background color and a trash icon animation.
  3. Toggle back to regular mode by clicking the floppy disk (save) icon in the top right corner.

IIRC there was a separately posted issue about adding some direct 'remove' item to the per track playlist item overflow menu to improve discoverability (edit: here )
