I’m constantly searching for a quick way to minimize Plexamp, and it takes longer to move the mouse down to the taskbar to click on the Plexamp icon to minimize it.

Having a dedicated button for it (like all other programs) would be a huge advantage. 🙂

The overall interaction development logic of this application in the windows platform is the same as that of the smartphone, so you will feel all kinds of strange places.For example, the poor layout of the ui and other windows programs do not match the logic of operation, etc…I hope they can improve the windows platform application in the future.

Yeah, I get that it’s the same UI on all platforms, but trying to make it 100% the same does not always make sense.

Plexamp works great on my Android phone, my tablet and my Windows machines, but I kind of expect different things between those plattforms.

Yes, that works unless the window is maximized, then it’s restored (and the minimized after a new keypress).
