Android music player - General Questions and Answers

Is there any music player that has an album toggle button? I've been through dozens of music players and can't find any with this feature. I use my tablet in my car and I want to be able to hit one button to toggle between album, shuffle, and normal. Obviously I can go through the menus and switch from album to songs but I want something quick and easy while driving.

Change default player for Playlists

I have meridian installed. I like it for music because the buttons on my bluetooth headset work with it. I realized that when I put a shortcut on the screen for a music playlist, it uses the default music player to play it. Is there a way to change this so that meridian is the default player for the music playlist?

[Q] a way to fix music controls?

I'm just wondering if there is a way to fix music controls on screen when using a music player on the phone. I hate that I need to go to my watch and slide to music widget so I can change the song, I feel like it would be faster taking my phone from the pocket and doing it from the lockscreen.
Thanks
Set up the music app as a double press shortcut. I did this and change songs all the time while I'm riding a bike. For further info see: http://www.wareable.com/samsung/samsung-gear-s2-tips-and-tricks-776
Best solution I've found for this problem (and others where persistent display is concerned) is to use Wearable Widgets. I use this to control Amazon Music, for example, on my phone from my S2. WW has a "watchface" which is simply the configured widget(s) from the phone.

How to play next song on homescreen

I like to listen to music on Spotify while browsing the web or using social media on my galaxy s8, Does anybody know how to play next song or previous song while you are in a different app? I don't even know how to change to next song even when I am on Homescreen, the only method I know is to go inside Spotify and do it from there...
If you're using Spotify just use the notification drop down from the top bar. You'll find music controls there as long as Spotify is running in the background. As for the homescreen, you can add a Spotify widget that shows album art, title and artist name along with the music control.
If you activate the music control lock screen widget, that will give you music controls for Spotify on the lock screen (found in facewidget settings)
Thank you guys, spotify notifications were turned off that was the problem

Terse Music Player

When I try to find a music player which have shake-to-swtich function and contain no
uneccessay functions,I only can find some with advertisement banner. Or It contains
a lot of useless functions like music visualization, lyrices and etc. After a long
period of searching, I finally find a suitable music player. However, when I was listening
music on the street, the music player will always shake-to-swithc music when I was walking:crying:.
It is very annoying. Lastly, rather than waiting for a suitable music player, I try to make
my own music player. So, Terse music play is born.:highfive:
Hope you guys enjoy it!

Idea with shaking is interesting, and UI is neat
But it's way too minimal: no playlists, grouping by artist or album, and album arts. Also, notification while playing is not a native player notification, so it doesn't shows up on a lockscreen

Playlist Shortcut on homescreen

I currently use samsung music player, but will switch players if I must.
I listen to one type of music while driving and a different at work and maybe a third while exercising or relaxing. So I am looking for a way to put a few of my playlists on the homescreen as shortcuts. Then when I click the playlist shortcut, the music player app will open and start playing that playlist. Is this possible?
Any help would be appreciated.
