3.8 is out. This one is mostly about audio quality and getting your local library into some kind of order, plus a pile of playback bugs that had been annoying me for weeks.

New

• Spatial upmixing: stereo tracks are upmixed automatically across the app now, so they make use of spatial audio hardware if you have it.
• Local playlist filters: new chips let you group and filter the songs in a local playlist by artist or album.
• Song posters: make a poster for what you’re playing and share it straight from the app.
• Device switcher: you can pick the output device from inside the player now.
• Search now pulls out the artists behind shows and podcasts.
• The Lord of the Mysteries collab pack is here. You’ll find it on the home screen.

Fixes and polish

• Smoother playback: I reworked how audio and video load. That fixes the stalling, the stutter and the play/pause button flickering when a track auto-plays.
• The track title on Now Playing is properly centred now, and long titles scroll.
• The floating bottom bar and the tablet navigation rail animate more smoothly.
• Pressing Enter on the keyboard runs a search. I also fixed results sometimes not loading unless you tapped a suggestion.
• A song you removed from a playlist can be added back to it. Before, it couldn’t.
• Quick picks shows up for everyone now, and Home no longer opens scrolled halfway down after the app has been in the background.
• I fixed a few crashes in search, and the app lags a lot less overall.
