Loving Plexamp so far to be able to use my audi media a bit easier. I just have a few small feature requests/suggestions I’d like to see in future updates.

Ability to swipe on album art in player to skip forward or back in songs. This one is just to make the interface a bit quicker to use, if this would be possible it would make the interface much smoother.

Ability to source media from multiple media libraries at once. I have a music library, but I also have an audio book library. Optimally I’d like to be able to have both at once and be able to see media from each library separately in one of the menus.

Audiobook support. I’d like to see more support for audiobooks, it’s surely not a hugely popular feature, but I’d still like to see it nevertheless. The ability to have a sleep timer in the player menu would be a great addition, and the ability for the audiobooks to stop and save their place when the timer goes off would be great.

I’d love to see some of these features one day with this app, super excited to see where it goes from here.

Agree, audiobook support and at Least a sleep timer would be awesome. Loving the new apps already.

I’ll second the request for track skipping through left and right gestures. Many music apps have this feature and it is hard to live without once you use it.

Also would love to be able to source music from multiple libraries.

and continuous play, so when a playlist/album finished the next album in the library is being played.

this is a crucial feature for me, because i listen to music during my daily commute and i often fall asleep. silence wakes me up and when i wake up i’m grumpy. so i want plexamp to let me nap with music 🙂

Another vote for swiping left and right on album art to go fwd and back. As @McNutty195 said, many music apps I’ve used implement this and it is something that is just second nature at this point, so it feels weird not to be able to do it.

I also have some music separated into different libraries for logistic reasons and would like to select multiple at once rather than only one at a time and having to go into settings to change it any time I want to see the music in a different one. Not a fix or anything, but I have found that if you have a playlist with music from multiple libraries it doesn’t seem to have a problem playing the songs from all of them in the playlist, even the ones not in your currently selected library.
