Design: Menu on album cover is not intuitive

Opened this issue · 2 comments

There needs to be some kind of UI hint to indicate that the album cover is tappable (or an alternative UI/menu access). A simple enhancement would be to add an ellipsis icon somewhere.

Album covers are not typically an interactive item in mobile apps, so I was only able to find this by looking into the wiki (which, I actually stumbled on by trying to see if I could fork my own branch or add a PR to add this myself).

To verify that I wasn't the only one who found this unintuitive, I passed my phone to my partner and asked them to find the volume control, saying that it was somewhere in the app. I watched for about five minutes as they tried a wide variety of things to find the option (and finally got it when I gave the hint "you wouldn't think to tap there").

(I would be happy to contribute if this project is open for it! Are there any contributor guidelines?)

I'd also love to see support for liking/disliking tracks. Should I open a separate issue? I created ytmdesktop/ytmdesktop#887

Any guidance @adlerluiz ?

It's really not intuitive, I intend to make this change at some point, but you can do it yourself too, all the code is available in the repository, there are no guidelines yet, but some of the main repository can be followed
