Hi there, we’ve been a little quiet while working on some background bits but happy to share with you more development on building a custom user interface for a square screened music player.
In the short video above take a look at our super fast way to get around a larger collection by zooming straight to the first letter of the artist and going from there. It’s surprisingly snappy to get around. The idea of an A-Z slider we actually shipped in a version of the original Sleevenote iPhone app, but it was a bit bonkers. We’ve since realised where it makes most sense and that’s in the grid collection view. Here’s a longer look:
Ultimately we’re trying to resist bringing up a keyboard and doing a text search because that’s dull eh? and also zooming through your whole collection helps remind you of the music you love, you’ll have to trust us on that one.
What do you think? Let us know!
Also, would you like more incremental updates like this or “just the big stuff”?
Have a great weekend.
Tom,
Sleevenote
