@ionuttbara can you please share more details regarding the information you'd like to see?
hi. yes. a button in playing screen , which is show information about the file. it must be in playing now window, near or under shuffle, previous/next, play and repeat buttons row. in dialog it must include more information such year, bit drepth , bit rate, number of channels etc. i know the simplicity of the app, but this can be a useful feature. thanks for responding.
also the performance when shuffling a big library and random crashes when change a song from lockscreen must be fixed, currently i use Simple Music Player 5.17.1 and cannot update until the performance part is solved.

We had no idea about such a problem. Please raise a bug for this.

will think on it.
shuffling a big library
That's a separate issue but how big are we talking here? It's an ExoPlayer issue, see https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/81 and https://github.com/androidx/media/issues/325 for more info.

Okay, please consider raising a bug report for this. Make sure to attach device-related info to help reproduce the issue.

If I may suggest, the section of the 'Now Playing' screen which currently shows only the Track title and Artist could be split into two "columns" (possibly with a smaller font size), and, for example, have the left side show:
-Track title -Album title -Year -Artist
...and the right side show:
-Format (e.g. MP3, OGG, WAV, FLAC...) -Bit rate (e.g. 320 kb/s) -info button, showing a popup with additional details (other ID3 tags and other technical info)
