- Phone support, too!
- This app is just exactly perfect for a phone form factor.
- Tapping either end of the command bar opens the secondary menu; not just the ellipsis.
- Better thumb-ability with commands on bottom of screen.
- No “trigram for heaven” button in an awkward upper corner.
- Primary navigation via pivots and lists.
- Seems faster.
- HoloLens support
- What?!?! (Yeah, it’s pretty cool putting the app up on a wall in dark mode.)
- …and a ton of attention to detail
- Natural sorting of band names
- Arrow standardization of jam transitions
- Data cleansing of track titles
- Sanitization of metadata and descriptions
- etc.
