Components
This suggestion deal mainly with lyric display and customization. Musicx offer lyrics and most music players do too. It's uniqueness will register with how the lyrics are presented. A smarter interface and smarter use for a start.
Proposal
Floating lyrics.
A persistent lyric display, with a toggle however to put it off or on. After minimizing the player, lyrics can still be read, with the lyric floating over the screen.
The floating panel should be adjustable and resizable. Users will be able to set the panel to display in such a way that it doesn't obstruct their view, perhaps a transparent background is also a valid option. So that other activities can go on while the lyrics are being read off the screen in total convenience.
lyrics share
This suggestion has to do with being able to share lyric files with other users. I stumbled on a folder named musicx. I opened the folder and found a sub folder named lyrics.
And in there I found files in the title of my some of my song, Which after I checked showed lyrics when I use musicx.
That means after sourcing lyrics they are saved some where, if the player can access them, I believe it can also be made to rip and share them.
With this I thought it would be awesome if users can share lyrics from the musicx player. The music player on the receiving end would automatically put the shared file in the folder where it reads from and in a supported format.
There are many reasons why people would want to share lyrics.
- If they want their friends to have it and share their opinion immediately.
- If their friends are short of data
- I.p Restrictions and many others.
Mockups / Examples
floating lyrics option in musixmatch
similar option in ttpod player
This is a floating lyrics panel over my launcher.
Benefits
Floating lyrics
With floating lyrics , it would be easy to multitask, (tripple tasking to be precise) Listen, read lyrics and perform a third activity. Enjoy viewing lyrics even after quitting the player interface.
Lyric share
I gave a few reasons above why people would choose to share lyrics. other benefit to this include.
- better user experience
- A Unique feature to show off, which is likely to promote musicx among music lovers. If I can share lyrics through the player , the receiver has to have the player to use the lyrics.
- Sending and receiving lyrics that I cannot access or that is inaccessible by the receiver.
