Components
Boomplay is an open source android media player that has a lot of users worldwide, it is now widely common that it now comes with all most new generation tecno devices.
I noticed that all the songs that have been deleted on my device was still listed on the list of songs in the application and when clicked upon, it says file not found.
This makes it difficult to know the exact songs available among the ones that has already been deleted.
Also, I decided to share some songs from my play list, then I discovered that the only features present when multiple songs are marked is only delete selected and add feature, with no share option
Proposal
I hereby suggest the instant removal of files that do not exist on the phone drive in the media application and constant update of the library whenever new files are been received on the device, more over I would also like to suggest the addition of share button to the options during multiple selection of songs to ease the stress of sending songs one by one.
Mockups / Examples
Below is what is been displayed by the application whenever I click on a song that is no longer on my device but still shows in the application.
Below is how the application looks like without the share button during multiple songs selection.
Below is an example of my proposed addition of share button to the multiple song selection.
Benefits
Constant media library update allows users not to have any interruption whatsoever during media play without any panic of not having a song been played or doubting if the song still exist or not.
Addition of share to multiple song selection allows for easy sharing of media files among users thereby improving users experience.
I will be happy if my above suggestions are approved and added to the application.
The pictures above are the Screenshot of my tecno smartphone.
Thanks.
