Settings>Audio>Output submenu hierarchy improvements
Cast your Votes for New Poweramp Features
Improve the usability of the Settings=>Audio=>Output menu, so you first see a list of physical devices (Speaker, Wired Headset/AUX, USB DAC, Bluetooth, Chromecast) and then underneath each device you select what audio method you wish to use for it (OpenSL ES, AudioTrack, Hi-Res, etc). The current method of choosing the method first, and then selecting what devices should use it, seems counter-intuitive and trips up some new users.

Playback of user's Cloud-stored Content
Cast your Votes for New Poweramp Features
Library access to users' cloud sources (e.g. playing your music from Google Drive, Dropbox, or other online locations).
Technical limitations:
access to such sources won't support all Poweramp Library features as it's not feasible to scan large music collection for tags over network. The access will be implemented for Folders/Folders Hierarchy/Playlist categories only. -
