What's new in this build: Home screen reorganized. Your Playlists and Your Favorites now sit together near the top so you can quickly get back to your own playlists and the songs you like. New Releases now has its own dedicated page. Tap See all under New Releases on the home screen to browse the full list. Hottest in the Circle and New Releases now only show songs that can actually be played. Albums, EPs, and vinyl that have no playable track no longer appear. Tapping a song now plays it reliably. Fixed the issue where tapping certain items did nothing. Like counts now update right away when you favorite a song. Add to Playlist now prevents duplicates. If a song is already in a playlist, it shows Added instead of adding it again. The Now Playing scrubber has a cleaner, simpler design. What to test: Open New Releases from the home screen and confirm the page loads and songs play. Tap songs in Hottest in the Circle and confirm they all play. Favorite a song and confirm the like count updates. Add a song to a playlist, then try adding it again and confirm it shows Added. Scrub through a song using the progress bar on the Now Playing screen.
