Feature description:
All the places where a list of songs are displayed, there’s also a subtitle with the main information about the song.
There are some cases where I can understand why certain information is displayed: for instance, the artist page would display album and year (no need to display artist), or the album page would display composer (no need to display artist or year).
However, there are a few cases where I need to see more info and I feel all those cases should use the same pattern:
- Songs Page: Artists - Year (screeshot 4)
- I’d like to see the Album as well, in this format: Artists - Album - Year
- Homepage Song List: Artists - Year (screenshot 1)
- same case as Songs Page
- Playlist song list: Album - Artists (screenshot 2)
- This is the most confusing one, since I usually expect to read the Artist first (it comes first in the songs page, in homepage lists, and in search results)
- Also, since a playlist can provide the list of songs to the homepage lists, I think both should use the same pattern
- Search: Artists - Album - Year (screenshot 3)
- I like this format and I think this is what other cases should display as well
I guess the ideal implementation would be to have a setting that allows users to specify the pattern of the information below the song.
But if that’s too much work, I’d like to see at least some consistency, and I’d like to propose using the format used in the search results: Artists - Album - Year.
Problem solved:
In the song page and the homepage lists I will be able to tell the album of the song.
In playlists, I will be able to see the year of the song; and I’d like to read the Aritst name first, like in other similar cases.
Brought benefits:
Consistency and more information to song lists.
Other application solutions:
N/A
