I’ve been trying out the Mezzmo application on my Kindle Fire HD 8.9. In general, I like it; one thing is driving me nuts...
Is there any way to set the tap-on-title action to append the single item tapped to the now playing queue, instead of obliterating the queue and replacing it with everything in the folder containing the item I tapped?
The problems I have with this are:
1. It’s counter-intuitive. Why would tapping on a single item put the whole folder in the queue?
2. It’s destructive, and tapping an item in a list when you meant to scroll or long-press is too easy to do by mistake. I had a list of songs queued. I inadvertently tapped a song. Boom! That song started playing, and (as far as I know) there was no way to get the previous contents of my Now Playing queue back.
3. Long-pressing is clumsy when you want to add a series of single items from different locations to the queue. One is less likely to want to add a series of whole folders to the queue, so a long press for that purpose wouldn’t be annoying.
