Hi, yesterday I was looking for the 'Seven Inch Soul' station and assumed that some stations might not been listed. But turns out it was on top and the list was't in alphabetical order lol.

Feature suggestion: This is just a shower thought tho not an issue :)
The starring function (or keep the liked tracks as a txt list) would be great. My solution for that is literally write down the name of the song to youtube, search for it and then add it to a playlist. An automated search in youtube with the played song's name.

SomaFM player is amazing. I've been using it for months and I love it's minimalism. Thank you so much.

redacting my feature suggestion as I've noticed some songs are google search results and some are itunes links. Seems like that those data is generated through soma.fm.

Hey! Glad you liked it :)

Have you checked channels sorting option?

Also about song search - I just use song name. App tries to search iTunes first and if there are no results - falls back to Google search. Any ideas for improvements there?

Oh, sorry didn't saw that! Well, that solved the issue immediately hehe.

For the fall back, maybe an option to set a main search engine to check out tracks? For my case, I use youtube, spotify and rarely beatport (if I'm going to buy singular tracks)

Sorting where the search would fallback (like how browsers sort their default search engines) would be a nice touch as well but I'm guessing it would be a bit pain to implement such thing. So take it as just an an idea. The app is already free and works perfectly. I'm a bit embarrassed that I'm coming up with these stuff.

Sounds good. I won't make any promise to implement something soon but I'll keep this as a feature request :)
