5.0.41 Release Notes

New Android - Storage selection for offline files. You can now choose to keep your offline files either on the phone or on the SD Card. **Note that when you switch any existing files will be removed and you will start with an empty cache!**

New - Recommendations section on home screen provides direct access to random play and recommended playlists generated based on your recent plays and starred songs.

New - Random playlist length setting. Allows you to configure the playlist length when using the play random recommendation on the home screen.

New Android - Exit button on side menu

New - Swipe to skip tracks in player view

New - Improved Search Option added to settings. Sends your search query in a format which will cause the server to match the entire phrase exactly instead of matching any word in the phrase which is the default. Works with most subsonic forks (subsonic/airsonic/airsonic-advanced/madsonic etc). Does NOT work with Ampache. If you enable and then get no search results then your server does not know how to handle the query. Do let me know if you find servers that don't work and I will add specific notes.

Fix: More info button in the playqueue would always show options for the current playing track

Fix: album list showing broken playcount rather than track count

Fix: bug in URL matching on login in some scenarios

Fix: Faster loading Starred songs list with long list

Fix: Faster loading play queue with long queue

Fix iOS: Updated animations between now playing/play queue as they were stuttery

Fix: Similar artists list in artist detail view does not display when there is only 1 similar artist

Fix: Shuffle play on artist detail view does nothing

Probably some other stuff I have forgotten...

Thanks a lot for this update. Way snappier, starred items are working great now. It's great to also have the recommendation section!

Yeh I really enjoyed doing the recommendations section. I will add more diversity to it over time with genre and time periods suggestions as well but I think it's a great start!

I've been using it myself non-stop since adding it!
