Yeah I have those options set already so that when the queue naturally ends, it starts over from the beginning and if I am on the last track and hit the >> button, it starts over again at the beginning. Just wasn't sure if hitting << while on the first track should jump it to the end. It's easier when you are at the beginning of the queue of 100 tracks to go backward if you want to hear something at the end of the queue rather than having to skip forward several times to get to the end.

So, I can't seem to find a related option for this, is this intended behavior or is it not working right? So, I'll have a queue setup of a few songs. I have the repeat set to "Repeat Category" and on the last song in the Queue, if I hit next, it starts over at the beginning (which is what I want and as expected). But if I am on the first track in the queue and I hit the previous button, it exits the queue and starts playing the last track/category that was played before the queue instead of going around to the last track in the queue (not what I want). This is when using the notification to change tracks, I haven't tried it within the player UI. Am I missing something here? How do I ensure that hitting the previous button in the notification while on the first track stays in the current queue and just wraps around to the last song in the queue?

Even this would be great, or if not this if they want a limit on the number of buttons, maybe a pick and choose which buttons you want. I know, for example, that by default on Poweramp, there's no, I think it's previous track button in the notification, it's play/pause, next and the notification unloading X. You have to turn the option on to have the other button (and it warns you when you do that the notification unloading X moves down into the expanded notification). Something like that I do remember because I just set it up a month or so ago (Got the bike November 30, started messing with audio system in December and that's when I found that option). Anyway, doesn't necessarily have to be like a long press or double click, could be a whole separate button. Just some way to skip albums from the notification.

I need it to work both ways. And with the screen locked, I can hit the power button to bring the screen on and the notification is there, and I definitely CAN use the notification with the screen locked (notifications persist on lock screen, have the buttons on notification). Also, I really do not want the full player on lock screen, for many reasons. Notification with buttons on lock screen:

Is there such an app that will work on a Verizon variant (AKA locked, can't root) Pixel 5 with Android 11? That could work if I am using Google Maps, but won't help if my phone is not unlocked though.

Double click would work too. I saw options for that, but I don't have Bluetooth button click options when riding, since it audio system is controlled by the phone. I need to be able to do it specifically from the phone, not an external device (as there is no external controller, the phone itself is the controller for the audio system). I don't want it on my lock screen. Double click would work too. Just some way to skip to the next album in the queue from the notification, specifically from there, not from lock screen, because on trips, I also use my phone as a GPS (no voice), so it being on lock screen doesn't help at all if I am using GPS and the phone isn't locked.

I tried searching to see if this was even an option and I can't find one anywhere in the player or documentation, and nothing came up on the forum search. But what I am looking to be able to do is whether I am in the player or clicking the track skip in the notification, to be able to optionally hold/long-press the track skip option to skip to the next album in the queue. I need it as a long press option on track skip because I ride a motorcycle, and this is how I play music on it (motorcycle has audio system connected by Bluetooth but no buttons to control anything, all has to be done from phone, which I have mounted to the handlebars). I can't swipe my phone and click and bring up the player UI to skip a previously queued album (I need to pay attention to the road). So, I set up a queue beforehand. Problem is, I have to keep tapping track skip to skip an album if I decide I'm not feeling it. Would be easier if I could long press track skip or have a separate button in the notification panel to just skip the entire album I am on to go to the next one. Really, I need the option to do it from the notification so I don't need to unlock the phone while I am riding.
