# Feature description:

When playing an internet radio, it would be cool to be able to hide the next/previous, fast-forward/rewind x seconds, shuffle, queue, rating, and repeat buttons since afaik they don’t do anything.

It would also be nice if…

- the like button either liked the radio station rather than the track, or added the track info to a special list of songs to download.
- the share, equalizer, and sleep timer buttons were always visible
- 

### Problem solved:

Useless buttons clutter the now-playing screen when listening to internet radio

### Brought benefits:

Cleaner ui when listening to radio, makes certain actions that are more useful to internet radio convenient

### Other application solutions:

### Additional description and context:

I thought about putting this request under [Switching Radio stations with "Next" (and/or "Previous") like with songs in a queue](https://support.symfonium.app/t/switching-radio-stations-with-next-and-or-previous-like-with-songs-in-a-queue/4005), but I think this is different enough to be worth a new request  
&nbsp;  
Request for share button always being visible inspired by [Wishlist for Radios and custom songs](https://support.symfonium.app/t/wishlist-for-radios-and-custom-songs/3864)
