Return to the specific band's "All albums" screen

#1

Hi There,

I've been using your app on my iPhone 6 for a quit long time now and really enjoy it.
But I have also got up to this point every time where I simply can't go back to the screen I desire.
This is a very common function/flow I'm expecting to have and so I decided to actually write to you guys hopefully getting an answers with solution or maybe even open a path for it for the next releases.

Below is the flow description:
1. I launch the app and see the latest song has been played on the bottom of the screen.
Right above it I see my library.

2. I tap on the "latest song played" area on the bottom of the screen in order to expose the current song function:
Screen content:
Top bar: repeat/shuffle/share/add to/ airplay
Middle: Band and Song title, play/pause icon, waveform
Bottom: "Hamburger" settings icon with the band and song titles

3. I want to go back to this exact band's album to review all the album songs as a list, and maybe even toggle through the specific band's albums.

Currently, the only option I know to get back there is by simply go back to the Library, Toggle/quick search by name in order to locate the band, toggle through the albums/songs.

I expect to have an "easy access" right through the player screen.
Maybe by long tap on the band/song's title, or double tapping somewhere... I don't know.

Is there a simple way for me to get there, that I might have been missing?

Thanks,
Doron

Hey Doron,
Thanks for a such nicely detailed question!
You should swipe down the screen #2 to get back. We will add a little navigation hint in next update.

Hi,
Thank you for replying my email with such care.
Very much appreciated.

That's correct for one use case but I'm afraid that my most common use case
is different and it's much more complicated reaching back to it from there.
The use case I'm referring to is that once I've "closed" this bands album
screen and gone back to the main screen (as shows on the screen capture #1
on my original example), when on the specific song screen, swiping down
will lead me to the previous page – which is the Main screen in my example.
This is while I'm trying to get easy access back to the specific band
that is currently playing, and instead I see the page that shows me all
of the albums by all bands.

Sorry for being a bother,
I hope I succeeded with explaining myself.

Many thanks,
Doron

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!
It was hard though...

Double tap on the minimized 'currently playing' song area brings you back
to the current album screen.

I suggest you find a way to guide the users on this gesture. It's a really
useful feature.

:) Thank you guys.
Keep up the great work you're doing.
