[Feature]: Widget needs favorite toggle #3624

Open Tre916 opened 1 month ago

Tre916 commented 1 month ago

Description

The new widget is welcome, but it needs a favorite toggle as well. Also there is a lot of useless buffer space around the 4x3 widget.

Suggested Solution

Please include a favorite toggle in the widget(s). The buffer space needs to be removed on the 4x3 widget so it can be listed and fit properly at 4x2.

Actually I tried to do that already but it is very hard to do based on how it currently works in the app, I hope fast4x knows how to get around the restrictions that I found.

It requires a lot of work, so develop slowly.

I think I was able to implement the customisation part of the toggle, but for the favoriting itself I have not been able to do that.

It still seems like the app isn't properly tying into the media player hooks in Android... Like Kustom still doesn't see it in its list of media players, and the playback widget behaves weird, and disappears very fast when paused. I also have issues where after a few songs the Android Auto favorite button stops reflecting changes in the favorite status, I don't know if all these things are related. Sorry, I'm in IT and often see connections but I'm not a coder so I don't know for sure and can't speak to it specifically. So I often wonder if I'm making sense at all, or not.
