Song search

[azureblue]

Would it be possible to add a search by First letter / few letters to the song list? As in Apple Music, where yo can simply type in "Be -" and the list will jump to songs that begin with Be--? Sure saves scrolling time...

The iRp app song search (different from forum’s google search) searches your library (or playlist) by “keyword” (or letters).
That’s actually far more useful than “ First letter / few letters to the song”.

Say you were searching (by initial song letters) for A-Train.
You won’t find it…the title is Take the A-Train.
Green Dolphin Street? Nope, it’s On Green Dolphin Street.

With “keyword” search, just choose whatever you think is the rarest/most unusual word anywhere in the title and start typing.

Is the title “Say It’s Only A Paper Moon”, “ It’s Only A Paper Moon”, “ Only A Paper Moon” or just “Paper Moon”? Each miles apart in your library. No matter… Just start typing p-a-p…. There it is.

Tons of songs have “Moon” in the title.

Try searching “Love”……. Yikes!

I stopped scrolling ages ago.
