Did not do much driving lately, working from home due to lockdown, so only got to test the AA functionality in the past week.
Thanks for explaining what the skip forward button does. Indeed it moves to the next track in the playlist. If the playlist only has one track, nowhere to skip to.
The "back" button I still cannot quite figure out. What it does seem to depend on the history. Important part is, if the AA restarts in "playing now" screen, which it does often, then pressing the "back" button goes all the way back to the "Library" level. So to get to the list of tracks on the same album to choose a different song, I need to click all the way through Audio -> Artist -> Album. Quite distracting while driving.
A wish list for the AA, if I may, as a paying customer, roughly in the order of priority:
1) Add "skip forward 30 sec" and "skip back 10 sec" buttons to "playing now", pretty please. Podcasts or audiobooks are really hard without this.
2) Is it possible to make the app remember not just the track, but time position in the track, when stopped? Other apps I tried for podcasts all have both #1 and #2.
3) Add a button to clear the playlist on the playlist screen. One day I had 244 tracks in my playlist and could not delete any.
4) If there is only one track in the playlist, make the "skip forward" button move to the next track on the album.
5) Add "up" button that goes back to "list of tracks" -> "list of albums" -> "list of artists" -> "Library" or whatever custom view I have programmed for the remote. Or alternatively make the current "back" button to always behave this way.
Thanks in advance! Great app, I am enjoying it a lot. Both AA compatibility and ability to download for local playback are priceless!
