New playlist at top of list please!

[Brogroove]

Hi. Love the program. I would love the option of having a new playlist be created at the top of the playlists column instead of the bottom. I have a lot of playlists and to add tunes easily to a new one it needs to be at the top of the list. Now I have to scroll to the bottom and slowly move my playlist up to the top every time and it doesn’t always track well so it takes several attempts. Might be because my gear is old but still. How about new playlist being created at top of list?

Open iRealPro, select Playlists, select Edit, touch and hold horizontal lines to move your playlist anywhere you want.

I second Brogroove's suggestion: I would like the option of having newly created playlists appear at the top of the list. It is a nuisance to always have to move a new playlist from the bottom to the top.

I second that

NEW playlist at top of list instead of end of list.

It would be great to have the option to have new playlists be added to the top of the list instead of the bottom. Because when you have a lot of playlists you have to constantly scroll down to add tunes or move the playlist up to top of list which is tedious. Thanks!

Would be great!

Yes please. This would make life that little bit easier.

This has been implemented in the latest version of iReal Pro 2020.9 for iOS and Mac. The same is coming later on Android.

 

[JonVDB]

Any update on this topic for android?

 

[dflat]

We are still working on the Android update, sorry.

 

[massimobio]

This is now available in the latest beta version of iReal Pro for Android.

Was there a problem with the iOS implementation? I thought that it did work but with the last update I did not.

 

[massimobio]

Just tested and it works fine for me. Where is the playlist added for you when you create a new one?

 

[Bobsax]

OK that’s the problem and now I know why it worked for me once…… So it works on newly created playlists but not imported playlists? I tried both importing a playlist from the forums and emailing a playlist that I wanted to edit and both of them were at the bottom but the newly created playlist was at the top.

Do you think in the future we will be able to have imported playlists at the top of the column?

 

[massimobio]

Personally I keep my important playlists at the top and prefer less important playlists that I import to come in at the bottom but maybe that's just me.
I'll run a poll on social media tomorrow and see what people prefer.

FWIW, in the "before" times I routinely used / shared iRp playlists via email and/or sandbox for scheduled ensemble gigs (remember those?) current practice and jam sessions <sigh>, and current student practice exercises (homework). All of these are best utilized by the recipient at the TOP of their playlists section (IMHO). Since over time I have generated quite a few playlists that I may want to refer back to, moving a newly imported playlist up to the top position is a bother for me and I suspect others as well.

We did polls on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
50% voted for imported playlists to be added at the top and 50% for the bottom.

The people have spoken! Decisively.

It sounds like it would be a welcome option To have a choice of imported playlist placement options at the bottom or the top .perhaps in the organizing dropbox at the bottom left corner or in the settings area.

Just want to shout out a thank you to all the techs and programmers at iReal pro. I played a session on Sunday and with the latest updates I was able to take all the songs that were called in the recent songs list and put them into a new playlist that was at the top of my lists.

I guess in the meantime, the workaround for imported playlists will be to simply create a new playlist and add the imported playlist songs to it and then delete the imported playlist.
When you have 100+ playlists it’s next to impossible to drag the playlist to the top.
