Mini Player Consistency Across Modes
Improved mode-to-mode synchronization so the mini player display stays consistent with actual playback state across all screen transitions.
Once playback starts, audio continues regardless of screen transitions. However, the mini player — the bottom bar that displays and controls playback state — had inconsistencies when navigating between modes: it would appear or disappear unpredictably, and the displayed playback information could lag behind or diverge from the actual state.
This work focused on restructuring the layout flow of each view and realigning how the mini player is positioned within that flow. The display of active content, mounted track, and current playback state is now synchronized against a single source of truth.
The mini player is the primary control surface for users navigating between modes during an active session. Consistent behavior across mode transitions means users can move through the app without needing to verify playback state at each step.
