Description

PLEASE READ BEFORE DISREGARDING
This is a very unique feature that will set this app apart. No other music player to my knowledge, other than Samsung Music, implements such a widget.

I would like a widget on the home screen that displays the current queue/playlist such that I can choose any song from the home screen without opening the app.

(I will be more than happy to sponsor you for this feature)

Problem solved

It's a well-known element of good design when you can access all relevant content within only three interactions. If you primarily use your phone for music, like me, these are your interactions:

  1. Unlock the phone
  2. Click the home button
  3. Choose your song

Other implementations

Here is an example from Samsung Music:

(I would continue to use Samsung Music, but I upgraded to an Xperia, which isn't Samsung)

Benefit

This feature allows quick access to resume or choose their favorite songs right from the home screen. It's always one home-button press away to access your playlist

Need to see user demand first for this, marking as a maybe for now. React/comment if you want this.

In terms of other widgets with related behavior, I don't use Spotify but one of their widget iterations appears to have had a singular upcoming track feature which could be clicked.

While both Apple Music and Spotify expand the bottom of their larger widgets to show a selection of thumbnails for recently/most played tracks (somewhat related).
