I don’t know how android players work, but the iOS players are missing a Home button. So if you’ve clicked thru a lot of things, you have to keep hitting the Back button. It’s retarded.

You can also swipe instead of using the back arrow. Works on my iPad and it’s a lot faster.

You can also long-press the back button to jump to any item you just clicked through (up to the library level)

_The first „Black Panther“ item refers to the movie, the second one to the collection; this also includes actor records on which I’ve clicked._

Thanks for the tip. It didn’t occur to me to try that. I guess it’s because the back arrow isn’t available on _See All_ music library screens. Not complaining… please don’t add it there!

Are you sure? I see a back button when navigating my music library by artist/albums…

On my iPad, there is one with the artist name next to it, above the albums.

There isn’t one on my Android phone when the albums display is full – probably because the camera is in the upper left corner so there’s really no room for one there. I’d just as soon leave the Android phone as it is and just swipe to go back rather than cover up more of the first album with an arrow.

Maybe it’s under the camera and I just can’t see it on my particular phone.
