Another list of enhancement ideas

[thobaut]

Hey, it's me again I came back for more ideas to further improve the app It covers some QoL improvement, UI's shenanigans and a special request that I'm 99.99999% sure it's a dumb idea

• Illogical time layout on player -> Total duration of the music is on the left and the current elapsed time on the right... Why ? It's really weird and unintuitive, it should be the opposite Maybe it's a delibarate choice of yours and in that case that's completely fine But I personally find it pretty disturbing

• Typing speed or pitch value -> Instead of a always a slider, why not adding a custom value by typing it Can be good for people with fat fingers I was imagining that the value displayed is tappable and opens the keyboard for us to input a custom value

• Difficult to select the very last song -> Let's say I want to specifically listen to the very last song of the library. Tapping on it is pretty difficult since the search menu at the bottom partially covers it

• No option to quit the song -> Some music players offers the possibility to totally "close" a song, hence closing the mini player that accompanies it Not the most useful feature, but I think it adds a little thing

• Random button : The return -> First, I want to thank you for adding the random button on startup But my problem is that... It disappears forever after pressing it Let's say I'm not in the mood for this song it randomly gave me, I'd like to have a quick option to select another random one

• Special request : Port to iOS -> I've heard about a tool from Google for Android developers that translates Java source code into Objective-C for the iOS (J2ObjC) Since the app is in Kotlin, I can totally understand that this idea might be a dumb one or you're just too lazy to do it (pretty much requires a Mac apparently), so I'm not hoping seeing it the light of day, but I still put it there because we never know More information here if you're interested : https://developers.google.com/j2objc/ (For context, I was offered an iPhone 12 recently because my Android is 5 years old, it is currently dying. Since I want to stick with your little music player, an iOS port would be amazing)

Hello! So for the ios port, as someone who doesn't like Iphones, I don't have one to test on, plus it does require a mac as you said, I have a 2013 macbook but it only run Big Sure, which xcode doesnt support. Plus I'd have to learn Ios specific API's 😕

For your other request, I can do them no problem ^^

Oh and for closing the song, do you have any apps that do that ?

[thobaut]

I knew it was a pretty bad idea and yeah, I hate Apple too. But I think their products are good, just really overpriced It was just a little idea I had, I wasn't expecting it to be added

For closing songs, I know that Symphony closes the song by swiping down the miniplayer at the bottom MiMusic does that too I think (not sure since I recently uninstalled the updates to take less space on my phone) I find that pretty impractical, a simple X button would be clearer and easier
