I vote for UI2.

I think the top picture is the Cover and therefore the information directly there matches more I guess. Furthermore UI2 seems "lighter" whereas UI1 seems a bit filled.

Thanks for the feedback, I do appreciate it.

New UI 1 or New UI 2???

UI2 looks to be easier to use with one hand as all the controls seems to be reachable by the thumb.

Vote for UI2 plus the following change: switch the location of the volume and the seek bar.
Having the seek bar in the middle of the screen makes it easier to reach (and I personally use it more frequently than the volume bar). It also makes more sense to me, to have it next to the basic controls and the song info.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestion

I did that before and it didn't work well because when you try to swipe left to access Media browser page you would move the seekbar, but I do know what you mean.
And I am looking to get that moved to more accessible position.

The more feedback I get the better I can adjust the UI. I also plan to make an option for choose from 3 layouts in the settings page. So users could choose what layout they would like.

I fear you have made me more inclined to go back to bed in the morning for my comfy headphones music hit!

Thats exactly what I've done this morning, but then I noticed an issue browsing Folders including Ä/Ö/Ü in their names (german kezboards....), they seem to have no content and no /.. to go back either. So i had to go to home directory by using pully Menu.
I tried that with several letters from other european alphabets that came in my mind with same problem.

However, thank you for giving us this great app, i renamed my folders for now, and wanted to mention this bug.
