Your app is annoying.

Postby refried » 16 Aug 2024 03:40

You removed the volume slider, added gestures that interfere whenever I'm trying to simply scroll through the list, scrub audio/video, you name it--which cannot be disabled. The play screen no longer has a stop, it merely adds a little bar with the track that does not go away. You cannot sort by file name, leaving the program to sort for you, which never does it correctly (somehow "01. artist - song" is always 3rd--even if you upload them to your phone via ftp in their own separate directories). It splices every artist it can, even if they're on a mixed album, into their own separate artist categories, making an incredibly cluttered mess. Network videos play the first file in the list sometimes (i.e. 01-file) regardless what number you picked. It never saves my "network connect" information into the program. The app font has been enlarged for blind people, apparently, and to top it all off this thing has become a battery vampire.

Is it supposed to piss you off? Because, I mean, it does a great job of it. A media player that goes out of its way to not play media you want is some kind of mental gymnastics middle finger to everyone. Bravo.
