I think the goal of info/tags is to be able to see all the information that exists about a file. But info/tags is also the only option to navigate from a song in the library to for example it's genre. If I want to do that, I have to find the genre section in all that information, that I don't need when navigating through the library. One easy solution would be to bring the most needed information up to the top. That would be for example title, artist, genre, album, album artist, composer, year (and maybe folder) (All the things that you can navigate to in the library). At the moment there's the filename, other file information, last played and more information at the top. Additionally, it would be great to be able to rate songs from there, without having to listen to the song. When you long press the album cover on a currently played song, you get a different “menu” (see screenshot below), which can be used to navigate to for example the genre of the song. It would be great to have the options to navigate to album-artist, composer and year too. At the moment there's only artist, album, folder and genre. Another idea for a better info/tags design would be a complete redesign based on the “menu” from Screenshot, with icons and a different layout. That would probably be cool but maybe also unnecessary. Another idea would be splitting navigation and info/tags into 2 different parts, so you can not only open info/tags by long pressing on a song in the library, but also a “navigation menu” like the one from Screenshot. These are just my ideas, that would make it easier to navigate through the library for me personally. By the way, I'm using the default skin.

There's what I mean. I've got the example from foobar2000 (even though it plays really hard and as-artist-records but I don't like their design). However the title of album can be hidden in the library when you scroll all albums catalog or choosing one from Artist list. I wait for it really long, to be frank, and feel offended to see it in a player, which design is quite ugly (And btw please make ability to choose covers corners because I like an original picture and rounded corners drive me mad for YEARS Thank you kindly

These are suggestions, I'm using a samsung j5 prime, 5 "screen, use nougat, I hope you can correct those details. Everything else I like a lot, I can not find other skins to try. If someone has fur links to try, please let me know. For now, I can not find sound faults, only in the design, attach some screenshots to this forum, I'm missing a catch, so I'll attach it as an answer to this thread.

Hello, with the recent redesign, that we've all been waiting for, @maxmp said goodbye to Holo (may it rest in peace) however, a small piece of it is still left. There doesn't seem to be a new icon. Yes, it's adaptive, but design wise, it's still from good ol' Holo. While that may not be a priority right now (getting it stable is just a tad more important), a new icon is imo something worth thinking about. It's the first thing potential new customers see.

Hello everyone I have suggestions for the design of the latest version: 1- Text fonts These should be personalisable as in the widget and cabio of colors 2 - to be able to change the color of the notification of reproduction And the navigation bar (it is only while it is open Poweramp

Hi, I have some suggestions about stock theme design of Poweramp... 1. İt's about "all track list", can we add a small cover art in front of the track name like below... 2. Album view, at the top it will be a big cover art and below the name of the album like so... Thank you for paying attention.

Poweramp has been recommended to me several times with varying degrees of enthuasim. So I had a closer look recently.. and quickly went from being impressed to finding it an enormous disappointment. It's readily apparent that Poweramp is a well designed, even polished music player. Certainly it has a few bugs, omissions & odd design choices, but it is obviously quite a bit better than most music players. It practically oozes decent design and easy (if not quite intuitive) operation. So much so that I was actually looking for the purchase page when I was surprised to find a glaring design fault. And worse, the actual deal breaker to me being that the clamor to fix the issue in questionn has languished, unaddressed for years on the developer's to do list (!). That is incredibly poor support and no amount of good UI design excuses that kind of developer problem. I am referring to how badly Poweramp screws up the use of song ratings. You can't import song (star) ratings from say iTunes. The developer certainly could have made information like that importable. But he didn't bother. Okay, fine. So say we spend dozens, if not hundreds of hours re-rating thousands of tracks. At least we're done then, right? Nope. There is no permanence to the information. It isn't added to tags and the developer doesn't allow us to backup, export or import ratings from Poweramp's proprietary database. If you buy a new phone, you can as you would expect to transfer your paid Poweramp licence to it. But the developer almost gloats at making you manually re-rate thousands of songs yet again. Ditto if you reset your phone, the app crashes, you rename a music folder or any number of other things. Too bad, you just lost four thousand song ratings again. It would be trivial for him to at least codge together a song rating backup utility. Users have been clamoring for this for years. But no. He managed to add it to his todo list several years ago and he has pointedly ignored it ever since. Just another red vs blue argument. A feature pet peeve? Hardly. A lot of people use star ratings rather than playlists (or use both) to manage their music collections. And have spent hundreds, perhaps even thousands of hours massaging song classifications. It hardly matters whether it is 25% or 60% of users that put a high value on song ratings. It is a core feature, essential to large numbers of users that a competent developer wouldn't ignore. And a real mystery why the developer does just that with such a coveted feature when it would be truly trivial for him to provide some import /export functionalty. Ideally as an embedded tag, thereby having permanence and portability. But at least being able to save (backup) song ratings. And since someone will still label this a pet peeve, we might as well add some of those as well. More features that the developer can add to his todo list. And then ignore. Swipe screen to adjust volume? How obvious is that for a music player? Easier volume adjustment as MX player and scores of others already do. Cover flow? Customizable menu lists? Or a whole bunch of other gee wiz, that was obvious features already voiced in these forums and /or languishing for years on the developer's dusty todo lists? As to song ratings, there just isn't a valid excuse that such an obvious and in-demand feature wasn't addressed years ago. The developer ought to be embarassed about it. Really embarassed.

Can Poweramp make an overhaul or perhaps roll out a Material design themed skin?

I've moved this to the correct thread (http://forum.powerampapp.com/index.php?/topic/4055-poweramp-crowdin-translation-project/) please read the details of how crowd-sourced translations work. Thanks. Andre

Hey all I love Power Amp and it is the only player that allows me to save playlists when my music is on the SD card (with other players the playlists are empty after a restart). However I really don't like that gradient background that is displayed behind the album covers. It would be great if there was an option to disable that and just have a black background. It would suit the simple design style of Power Amp better. Even if I zoom the covers the gradient is still visible in landscape. Also I have found no skins that feature a black or plain background. Another nice feature would be dropbox support (play in background). Cheers

I present to you my Poweramp theme. NOTE: I WILL NOT HELP YOU IF YOU DO NOT READ THE OP What's Themed Media Controls Time Tracker Font Color Background All Songs Icon Not Themed Anything that is not listed in What's Themed. Changelog 9-1-12 Media Controls Have Been Themed Time Tracker Has Been Themed Font Color Has Been Themed The Background Has Been Themed All Songs Icon Has Been Themed Screenshots for Latest Build Download Link For Newest Build Download Link For Newest Build This is a Alpha Vesion so there is no need to tell me what's themed and what isn't.

Hi, Poweramp is great app, but I have one question. Is it possible to add option for disable color backgroud or add automatic height of button panel, because it doing ugly spaces. Image below will help you to get understand. Thank you. PS:I can translate Poweramp to czech.

Hi! I've been using Poweramp for about a year now and i just want to say that this is the BEST music player on the Android platform right now. I just wish the main player screen had a better "cover-flow" design and functionality. Right now it just shows you the art of the playing song, with a blurry color background. It looks good, but function wise it doesnt do much. Doing a long swipe only slides you to the next or previous song. Wouldn't it be better to show the album art of a few previous and succeeding songs, and dragging across the screen would scroll quickly through the album arts. If I wanted to go from song 1 then to song 30, i have to either tap the 'next' button 29 times,swipe 29 times, or go into the list view and select song 30 there. It would be so much simpler to just scroll quickly through album art from the main player screen. That, and it would look REALLY cool. ..oh and the sorting feature seems kinda whack, it won't sort with newest songs first. Tried ticking 'reverse' but still wont go. I always end up with the newest songs at the bottom.. Hope you can work these into a succeeding release , cheers! **I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000 btw.
