Aurender iPad app it has featured press and hold capability. When a user presses a finger on an item such as an
album, a popup menu appears with options. The Aurender press and hold options include Play Now, Play
Random, Replace Queue, Add To Next, Add To End, Show Album Cover, Artist, Album, and Add to a playlist
among others. Press and hold capability decreases complexity greatly. It surprise me every time I use an app
without this capability. Selecting an album or track, then finding how to accomplish the task at hand via a button
somewhere (add to next, etc...) or to find out the capability is missing because of lack of GUI space, is
preposterous in 2014. It was almost preposterous in 2011. Press and hold with the "correct" amount of options is
mandatory for apps to be in the top tier of capability without complexity. The Aurender app is great but it isn't
perfect. One complaint I have with the app is its inability to edit metadata. After ripping or downloading files to
the Aurender I often notice little errors such as artist name misspellings, incorrect capitalization, or a missing
album title identifier (DSD64, 24/96, etc...). I add this identifying information to the titles of my albums to make
differentiate between several versions of the same album much simpler. I would love the metadata editing
capability built into the Aurender iPad app. I could simply edit all this information right from an iPad. Currently I
open JRiver Media Center on my Mac or PC to edit this information on the W20. Editing metadata isn't rocket
science. I wish the Aurender had this capability.
Visual aesthetic that serves the end user by increasing functionality is critical. Technology must serve the user of
said technology. Too often geeks, techies, or companies, without knowledge their end users, create applications
that are beautiful but this beauty serves no function needed by the end user. For example, Apple used to feature
Cover Flow in its iTunes application. In a world with hundreds of millions of iTunes users I'm sure one or two
people actually used this feature for more than a week, but it was worthless. Apple used this technology for
technology's sake. Cover Flow was a solution in search of a problem. It was aesthetically pleasing for sure, but
was also a functional nightmare for browsing more than 100 albums. Aesthetics that serve functionality can be as
simple as a user interface color that is easy to read and doesn't shock one's pupils when viewed in the dark. The
