Search

  • Searching and browsing are two states now, and they hold still. Putting the keyboard away used to swap the screen out from under you — your recent searches would vanish and the browse grid would take their place. Tap the field to search, Cancel to go back, and nothing moves in between
  • Scrolling your results used to do the same thing, for the same reason. It doesn't now
  • Your search filters are remembered. They reset to "Library, everything" every time you left the tab, without saying so

Genres and moods

  • Opening a genre gives you the same screen wherever you opened it from. There were two, and the one behind Library was the older of them
  • It is shaped like the rest of your library now, with full-width Play and Shuffle, and shows nine albums where it used to show three. The artwork at the top was never the genre's — it was whichever album happened to sort first, blurred
  • Moods work the same way as genres, rather than being a list with nothing to do

Everywhere else

  • A background image shows behind every screen, not just the three tabs. Setting one and then opening an album used to drop you back onto a plain colour
  • Downloading an album closes the sheet, instead of leaving it open behind the one that replaced it
  • A library with no genre tags says so, rather than showing an empty screen

Under the hood

  • The search tab's state was the text field's focus, which is why the screen changed whenever the keyboard did. It is an explicit state now, and a blur no longer touches it
  • The app had exactly one layout animation in it. The Reanimated test mock carried no layout animations at all, so FadeIn was undefined under Jest and any animated component was untestable — which is how it stayed that way. Fixed, and the search tab now fades between its states and staggers its browse tiles, all of it collapsing under reduced motion
  • The genre header is gone: 365 lines for a blurred copy of one arbitrary album's cover, a hardcoded inset and a title
  • First tests for the search body — nothing pinned that branch before, which is how it stayed keyed on focus
