BlueOs UI Question


I'm running BlueOs (v3.16.5) on an Android tablet and a phone and love the UI and the reliability with one annoying exception:

Let's say I've been listening to a streaming service (or my local library) for some time and have navigated through a bunch of content.  Now I want to switch sources. Tapping the icon with the 3 bars takes you to the main menu where you can select a new source.

The problem is that if I'm several screens into Quobuz, or my local library, I have to  to continually tap the back arrow (upper-left) until the 3 bars show up again. Only then can I get back to the main menu to switch my source. 

I assume other Android users are experiencing the same thing. Has anyone found a shortcut to get to the main menu when you're several "branches" down the source tree?

You don't need the 3 bars (upper left). Place your thumb on the left side of screen and swipe the menu in. Simple.

@lowrider57 Wow! Ok, now I feel like an idiot. I've been suffering the same bugbear  as @skirescue911 since last summer. Thanks for this 👍😁

...an interesting side note: on my tablet I have to touch and hold the left side for a second, wait for a narrow black bar, then swipe to get the main menu.  If I swipe without waiting it functions as a page-back. However, a hold is not necessary on my phone.  Obviously device and/or setting dependent.

Yes, must be device related. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy, it works flawlessly. My only gripe is with Qobuz through BluOs, there's no way to change the sorting of the library.

So true about the sorting. I so wish that Qobuz would come up with an equivalent to the "Tidal Direct" app available for Tidal.

Yep, it's really frustrating not being able enforce any order to your Qobuz saved albums etc. Is there any hint that Qobuz will roll out a "Connect" type app?
