Sort the music list by:

LUMIN browsing of local music servers is at its most flexible when the music is well tagged. You can sort your music library by the following tags:

• Song Title
• Album Title
• Album Artist
• Composer (optional)
• Genre
• Year
• Newest added to the server

If the full list of icons can't fit on the screen, this area can be scrolled left and right by dragging a finger on the screen.

Select browsing source

In this same area you can also get access to:

• Folder Browsing (An alternative way to browse your music library instead of the standard tag-based browsing)
• TIDAL
• Qobuz
• TuneIn Radio

If the full list of icons can't fit on the screen, this area can be scrolled left and right by dragging a finger on the screen.

Change the view

• Artwork View (tapping on an album takes you to Song Grouping View)
• Song Grouping View
• Heading View

The available views and the content of those views varies depending on current 'Sort by' selection.

Note: To save space on small screens, some of these buttons may toggle between views.

Maximise the Browse panel (large screens only)

The browse panel can be maximised to fill the screen. Useful while creating large Playlists.

Pinch to zoom

When in Artwork View, you can pinch the screen to zoom the artwork. LUMIN App will automatically rescale slightly to optimise the view.

Add to Playlist

Normally, as soon as you tap on a song or Grouping header, it will automatically be added to the bottom of the Playlist.
However, if you have selected 'Double Tap' as the selection method, more options become available.

You can now select multiple single songs at once and the bottom menu will appear, allowing the following:

• Play now: Adds selection to the bottom of the Playlist and LUMIN will skip to it and play immediately
• Play next: Adds selection after the 'Now Playing' song and LUMIN will play it after the current song has finished
• Play later: Adds selection to the bottom of the Playlist
• Play and replace: Replaces the whole of the Playlist with the selection, and starts playing
• Clear selection: Deselects all songs.

To add a whole album to the playlist easily, see below.

Info pop-up

Press and hold on any item in the Browse, Playlist, or Now Playing app areas to open an info pop-up.

From this pop-up you can:

• Add this item to the Playlist: (see above for icon explanations). A major benefit is being able to add a whole album to the Playlist without leaving Artwork View.
• Search the current library for matching items e.g. Ryan Adams:
• View the Last.fm entry for this artist/title*
• View the Allmusic.com entry for this artist/title*
• Browse the TIDAL library for matching items
• Browse the Qobuz library for matching items
• When in TIDAL or Qobuz, you also search your local music library for matching items.

* On the resulting pop-up you can press the Globe icon to switch to your device's main browser.

Search

First select the tab to sort the list by (see above).
Then type in the word you want to find in that tag.
The example shows that we are searching for "Joni" in the Artist tags.

Breadcrumb Trail Navigation

During Browse window navigation, the LUMIN App will track your levels of drilling down through the music libraries.

Tapping this button pops-up a Breadcrumb Trail of the navigation path to get to this point. Tapping any of these items will jump back to this point.

Forward/Back

During Browse window navigation, the LUMIN App will remember your recent history and you can navigate backwards and forwards between views. Mimicking the behaviour of an internet browser's forward/back buttons.

The LUMIN App will remember previous browsing sources (TIDAL/Radio/Tags/etc) and views (Artwork View/Song Grouping View/etc).

These navigation buttons appear at the bottom-left of the Browse window and will float over the content.

These buttons can be removed in Settings > Backward and Forward Navigation
