Seems to work but I cannot see the correct circular icon on the home screen. I see a grey square with a 1 inside it.

Yeah, think I got that the first time, tried again (perhaps after a refresh) and icon worked. Not sure if that's my issue, or the browser's.

No luck here. The icon appears in the history list but the home screen icon refuses to play ball.

I think I sometimes see the blue icon appear briefly when I click on "add to home screen" but it is immediately replaced with the grey icon.

Sorry, not sure how to help. I do recall getting the square icon - which I initially ignored, so as to test the text input. When this worked, I removed the icon from the homescreen, and tried again - which worked. I only mentioned this browser, as a way to not get the "Insecure site" warning. (Which, BTW, is just stupid for a 192.168.x.x site).

Worked for me, removed the grey one, reopened the Kiwi browser, re-added to home screen, and there it was.

Getting quite a collection now

Which android version are you using. I get the ugly badges on the icons.

I've tried on Android 5.1.1 and 7.1.2 and I get grey icon with both.

After many many attempts I finally get the blue icon but I have no idea how. [emoji3]

Is there a way to add a URL and save it as a favourite? I can see how to add a URL to the queue where I suppose I could save it as a playlist but I cannot see how to save it as a favourite.

In Favorites at the upper right you should see a heart-with-plus-sign icon. Click that and you should see "Add Favorite" should pop up.

Excellent, I hadn't noticed that feature before, thanks.

Hi,

Do not know if this is the right place to ask or in the LMS section;
Would it be possible to have the album sort options differ by genre? For example, for jazz, pop, rock, etc I would like to sort on year, album but for classical I would like to sort on album only. Maybe others would like to have it as well?

I plan to remove the 2 album sort options in Material's setting, and replace them with a menu button on album lists - this would be saved diferrently for albums, albums of an artist, and albums in a genre. Not sure about separate sort per genre. However, with the sort button you could at least change it when entering different genres.

Group Players

@craig,

Would it be possible to put a separator between Group Players and real Players in the player selection drop-down list? Just like the one before 'Synchronise' and 'Manage Players'. Its purely cosmetic so just a thought to maybe help improve layout a little.

Thanks

Bob

For the next release I've updted the players menu as follows:

Placed a "Group Players" / "Standard Players" title before list of relevant players (if there are group players)
Removed the speaker/speaker-group icon (not needed due to section title)
Placed an on/off button to the right of each player entry
If player sleep time is shown in menu, clicking on this will show sleep settings dialog
