Search the Community

When you enter the search by folder, the app is closed :c I would be very happy if you repair this problem :3

Sorry, if this has been posted before but I find that from time to time I need to reorganise my songs/folders. In doing so, any playlists that contained any of these songs will report it as missing even though it's still there just in a different location. It'd be handy if when a missing song is flagged in a playlist it would give you the option to search for the song or offer to automatically scan for missing songs if they haven't been manually deleted. And also, if a song does exist in a playlist and you delete it, maybe a warning or notification that the song belongs to a particular playlist and won't be available (obviously) if deleted with an option to also remove from the playlist/playlists it belongs to on deletion. Just helps to keep tings tidy Many thanks Oh, and just one other thing, maybe an option to export songs along with a playlist. Sometimes I want a particular playlist of songs on my laptop or tablet for when I travel and it's be really useful if I could export that playlist with the songs it contains so I can drag them onto my other device

I love Poweramp. I've used it since my first ever smart phone (Droid X). Probably one of the things I've found it most useful for is audio books (I enjoy immersion reading, listening to the audio book as I read). Since many audio books are upwards of 10 hours long, it's insanely useful that Poweramp remembers your place even after the app is closed. However, that prevents me from being able to listen to other music, as when I come back, the file starts from the beginning. And if I do, I have to drag the slider to where it was before. With 10+ hours of audio in one file, precision is impossible. It would be a great feature if I could type in the exact time code that I would like to jump to. That way, if i want to listen to other music, I just have to keep a note of where my place is in the book, and when I come back, type in the time code and pick up right where I left off.

I love that Poweramp is integrated with Google Voice Search, but I think it could go one step further and let you set a default action for the "Listen to..." command. Right now, it is essentially like doing a search within Poweramp and showing you the list of results. Since I (and I'm sure many others) primarily use the voice search in my car, this causes me to still have to look down and make a selection on my phone after the search. I think it would be convenient if we could have a default action once the search completes: either play top result, enqueue top result, or show results (the current implementation). My personal favorite would be the enqueue option, that way if I'm listening to a playlist but have a sudden urge to listen to a random song in my library, I could tell easily tell my phone to play it, after which it would return to the playlist, all without having to look at the screen. Thanks for the consideration.

I noticed a problem that I am having with Poweramp that would require additional option for the search, Such as being able to set your search to search by Title instead of Album by default. If you have a track and an album with the same name, Poweramp plays the first song in the Album and not the song by the same title. Here is an example: I have the whole Dare to be Stupid album. If i search for Dare to be stupid through voice search, it always comes up with the first song on that album alphabetically, which is Cable TV and not the song, Dare to be Stupid. It would be nice to set your search preference so you could prefer song title over album title in the search.

First of all, I'm from Spain and I don't speak English perfectly, so feel free to correct my spelling. I just updated my phone to Android 7.1, and Poweramp keeps crashing when I try to search something. The rest of the functions are working well. I tried to use the stable version that it's in the Play Store, and the alpha ones (703,704), and it all keeps crashing. I love this app, and I hope it to work again on my phone soon. Thanks in advance!

Hi there, all my mp3s have multiple genre id3-tags. A very nice and comfortable feature of my desktop-player is, to be able search in a very intelligent (boolean) way. For example, i'm having a party at my place and want to choose very quick the appropiate music. I know, there are some people, who like rock music but hate electronic music. What I do with my desktop-player (foobar2000) is: searching for music which is tagged with "party" AND "rock" AND NOT "elektro". In fact, I do have some mp3s which are tagged with all 3 tags "party"; "rock", "elektro" (for example "let forever be" by the Chemical Brothers), but I want that just mp3s with the tags "party" and "rock" AND NOT (!!!) "elektro" appear in my playlist. Is this kind of search already possible with Poweramp? Would be very nice!!! kind regards, SiliasPA

It is a little inconvenient when, after performing a search and scrolling through music, that I have to scroll to the top to get back to the search bar or do click on the three dots to get back to the search function. It would be nice if I could just swipe left to bring up the search box or go to a search screen and filter results, or do a new search. This way I don't have to aim for the three buttons or do a bunch of scrolling.

When I search for "o", should match artist with "ò "or "õ" or "ö" or "ó", etc, in the name... Very important. I have many tracks with foreign names and lots of accents and other types of diacritic / diacritical mark characters. Please add this type of loose/fuzzy search as default. Thanks!!!!

Device specifications: ● Android 4.4.2 ● TouchWiz 19505XXUFNC4 ● Galaxy S4 19505 (rooted) Poweramp specifications: ● 2.0.10-build-571-play (Full Version) Whenever I hold down the album art display, search for a new picture using the in app search feature and select one I want to display, nothing happens. All that is displayed is the stock "Poweramp" picture. The same thing happens if I try choosing from the "Pick From Gallery" option. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Or is it a bug? Thanks.

If you search your library right now you can add individual tracks to the queue by long pressing, then selecting "Enqueue". However, what I am looking for is an easy way to search and then add all of the search results to the queue. The use case is this: I am assembling a queue, generally fairly long, for a working session. A number of the albums I have purchased have extremely large track counts. "99 Essential ...", "50 greatest...", etc. Very frequently, these have large subsections that could have formed a whole on their own. This is especially true with classical music where multiple distinct works are mixed onto one "album" and I want to select a single work. So, I search for the name of the work and the selection of tracks come up and I want to grab the whole set and append them to the queue without grabbing each track manually or putting the entire album onto the queue.

Poweramp Version: 2.0.2 build-458 (Full version) Device: VZW HTC Thunderbolt Android Version: 2.3.4 Custom ROM: No. Just as the topic proclaims: the filter feature has not worked for me since I upgraded to version 2.0. The feature for searching works (the all encompassing search feature where I have the press the spyglass button on the phone), but the filter feature (accessed by touching underneath, say, a folder directory) shows me 0 displayed results on typing in anything at all, even a single letter. The old school version of the filter feature (which, if I recall, was accessed via the spyglass button) worked fine for me in 1.4. I find it hard to believe that this is a problem unique to me, but maybe it is. I really miss the filter feature; it was fantastic because I have several folders with 300+ songs in them and want to search within that folder without having to type in more letters than necessary while, say, driving. It may be worth noting that I'm sorting things within folders by file name title in Poweramp, but if I recall the feature still wasn't working even before I fiddled with those settings. Any help or bug fixes you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time. - C.J.

Здравствуйте, отличный плеер, спасибо! Хотелось бы, чтобы он стал еще лучше. Вот, заметил пару багов с обложками, когда вручную выбираешь обложку, она применяется только если перейти в другой альбом\ папку и снова вернуться. (При автоматическом скачивании все ОК) При случайном порядке воспроизведения обложки перепутываются и не соответствуют песням. Не отображаются обложки, находящиеся внутри файлов .ogg И одно предложение: сделайте пожалуйста поиск регистронезависимым, не вижу смысла в поиске с учетом регистра, а неудобства при использовании поиска добавляется, невозможно упомнить в каких регистрах набраны теги во всех композициях. Спасибо. Извините, что на русском, Version 209 build 558 uni PS. Нашел раздел форума для русскоязычных, скопирую туда.

Half the time when Download an album art it isn't the one I want and there isn't a way to earch manually. In N7 player you can do a custom Google Image search for album arts. This feature and it's creative UI are really the only thnigs N7player has over Poweramp.

I bought this app today and I must say that this is probably the best android music player there is. Great job . At the moment im adding all the missing album art to my music collection. The built in search for album art works pretty good and I can get like 50-60% of the missing album art, which is great as most of my collection is pretty unknown. What I miss is an option to browse through google images and pick one manually. So what I would like to see is a small built in browser to search through google images so that you can pick images manually, if the suggested album art doesnt match. The option to edit the search terms for the album would be great too. Would love to see something like this in a future update!

Hey I saw a topic similar to this in August, and a moderator acknowledged the suggestion, but I was wondering on the status of this: When you voice search (using Voice Actions / Google Now) Poweramp will respond as an optional intent to "Listen to..". However, Poweramp will pull up a list of results as if you had used the search function in the app. I'd like to further suggest that if one result is found (aka - high confidence), Poweramp should automatically enqueue the song and start playing it immediately. As nice as it would be to tap into the Voice Actions API, I know it is not possible to add custom voice actions such as "enqueue <song>" vs "play <song>". Some pseudocode: private void VoiceSearch(string[] VoiceToTextResult) { if (VoiceToTextResult.length == 1) { if (GetResultType(VoiceToTextResult[0]) == ResultType.Song) PlaySong(VoiceToTextResult[0]); else if (GetResultType(VoiceToTextResult[0]) == ResultType.Artist) PlayArtist(VoiceToTextResult[0]); else if (GetResultType(VoiceToTextResult[0]) == ResultType.Album) PlayAlbum(VoiceToTextResult[0]) } private ResultType GetResultType(string text) { ResultType result; //Logic return result; } public enum ResultType { Song, Artist, Album } Then add additional options toggling auto-play or whether to enqueue the result array or add it to the current playlist. Google Music does something like this, and I'm sure the fine devs of Poweramp are just as capable This is one of the minor things holding me back from getting the full version unlocker, as I use this feature a lot while driving. I'd provide more code but of course I have no access to the source so I'm not sure how PowerAmps functions work.

Hey guys, since many new Android phones are missing the search button, please add a search button to the main screen and liberary screen. The Play Music App has this button and it is really helpfull. This is how it looks like on the play music app.

Dear Poweramp developers, I came to your player and found it really comfortable to use, powerful, in a slick and wide design. In the end I was convinced by it's vast audio file format support and bought my licence. I only would like to make one small suggestion which would enhance my daily use enormously. I would love to have a kind of "one song play" within the search function. The reason is simple. Usually I pick my songs I would like to listen to one after another. So, basically after each song, I start to type the next song in the search box. Having searched, Poweramp plays all the songs which were found throughout the search after my song. That is somewhat annoying because it forces me to pause the list manually. Adding songs to a playlist never worked for me in this case, it is too strict. If I want to listen to more songs though, I put them together in a list. I think, this feature could be easily integrated. For example, a single file play button could be added just within the context menu which appears when you press long onto a song in the search results list. I hope this is possible, I would be very thankful. Regards teme

I am alway interested to read more info about a particular band, album or track that I am listening to. One way to do this is via Wikipedia (or other music knowledge sites). I thought it would be cool, if say in the Info/Tags popup (menu -> Info/Tags), you could have a search icon next to the album, artist, and title - tapping one of those would quicky perform a search for that item in the Wikipedia app that I installed on my device. Alternatively it could open the list of registered search provider apps I have on my device, I select one, and then it searches for the item I have tapped on. MediaMonkey on PC has something similar - very powerful feature IMO. Viper21 PS. Interestingly, when I tap the Search button currently in the Info/Tags popup, it offers me Dolphin Browser, Internet, Music Player, Poweramp, Winamp, and YouTube, but not Wikipedia (which I have installed).

Please make search easier to access. The only thing I miss about ios music player is the quick ability to search. Many of us ios converts with large libraries of music would greatly benefit from easier access to search. If there is one than I apologize I'm new to Android and this app but I love it. Alsi if you could extend search to widgets that too would be amazing.

Hi, I am using a COWON Z2 which doesn't have a Search button. Even long pressing the menu button doesn't work. It just opens the menu when I leave the button. I've tried holding it for long enough. It would be great if the filter button is visible even when you have scrolled down the list. Not just at the start of the list. It will be a big relief for me and make the interface much more intuitive. I love everything about this app except this.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the early versions of Poweramp have the option to insert/edit comments or "tags" in a song? What I want to achieve is this. Just how there is an option for "topic tags" on this thread. I want to do the same for songs. It is kind of the reverse of adding a song to a playlist, except that song tags would be embedded in the ID3 tags of a song To make it simpler for you: if in Poweramp you could just enable the ability to edit the "comments" on songs. I could work wonders with that as well Cheers

I have spent the better part of a day looking for a way to open a music file in Poweramp from Android's "Quick Search" function on both Gingerbread and ICS. From what I can tell, it is not currently possible as the players that do give results (such as Google Play Music and Player Pro) seem to be passing along their own internal search results rather than actually opening a file in an external application (although I'm no dev so I could have that all wrong). Please consider adding the functionality to add Poweramp as a "searchable item" from Quick Search. Thanks so much for a great app, I've been using it daily for a year and a half!

Hi, I would like to be able to search songs according to what's in their id3 tags. In particular, I use the comments field in id3 tags (which is not editable in Poweramp v2.0, by the way) to store my own tags and create (dynamically autogenerate on my pc, manually maintain on Poweramp so far) playlists based on them. Being able to filter on strings contained in comment field of id3 tags would be very useful to me. Thanks, Fabrizio

Hi, Okay, since this is off topic (as this board is intended for topics regarding the app only) I'm somewhat anxious, but hope I won't get banned for asking this. Would it be possible to reduce the minimal word length for the search function from 4 to 3 letters? The reason being: If I want to search the boards for topics that relate to certain file formats ... those mostly consist of three letters. Regards
