cool features needed in prodigal music player

Components

Prodigal music player design with a cool interface to look like and work like an actual ipod. Overall the music player is good with space for lots of improvement. On the app movements are controlled by rolling around a space surrounded by the buttons. This means for a user with a long queue of music say a 1,000 music, it will take ages for the user to roll till the last music. Also there isn't an option to mark a song I like very much as favorites and lastly the option to search tracks. Normally on an ipod these features might not be made available, I really don't know because I haven't ever utilized and ipod, but on a mobile device missing these functions on a music player will be disastrous.

Proposal

These are my proposals for prodigal music player

• The movement control on the app should changed from swirling to click-to-select especially on the songs list or both forms of movement can work simultaneously.

• Option to mark a song as favourite

• The ability to search for an artist album or track on the app

Mockups / Examples

click to select to select can be implemented like this on the app.

---

The option to mark tracks as favourite can be implemented from the now playing playing which will be indicated by a love or heart icon

---

To search on the app a search button can be placed on a part of the app like this

Benefits

for the click to select function

• this function will enhance efficiency in the app.
• it will save time of navigating through a long list of songs.

for marking tracks as favorites

• users can now have a list of their favourite tracks

---

for search functionality

• it'll enhance usability.
• users instead of manually browsing through the app to play a song or an album or an artist they can quickly navigate by searching it.
