Albumen provides a simple interface for viewing and playing songs (tracks) in your device's music library, organized into albums and playlists. Back when Albumen was originally written, Apple's Music app truncated song title and artist information, whereas Albumen displayed that information in full. Apple's Music app no longer truncates, but Albumen remains useful for the sheer simplicity of its interface. Tap a song (track) to start playing it. The iPhone's music player is used, so you can then quit Albumen and playback will continue, and you can use the iPhone's standard music interface (including the Music app, the Control Center, and the lock screen) to pause and resume play and so forth. Albumen also includes a play/pause button and a track progress indicator. Albumen also tells you what track is currently playing: the Now button takes you to the currently playing track within its album, and the currently playing track has a note mark.

One of my top annoyances of the iOS iPod player is that long text does not scroll or expand so that I can see the full artist, song, and album info. This takes care of that issue. This would be a great app for classical music fans. However it doesn't go as far as I'd like & need it to. Specifically for me, I need it to work with podcasts. I'm a DJ & I listen to several podcasts to learn about new music. If this app worked with podcasts & their chapters I'd be thrilled. That's what I really need and until it can do that I won't be using it. Another suggestion would be to allow the listings to be grouped/viewed/sorted in other ways than always in album view. Would be nice if I could make the main list view group in artist, genre, or year as well. Hopefully this developer will expand on his much needed idea.
