Delete/Remove from Play Queue confusion

Delete/Remove from Play Queue confusion

When you're trying to remove songs from the Queue (because you can't clear the queue at the moment - separate issue) the UI is really confusing. You long press on a track (or press the tiny 3-dot button) and you're presented with the following:

 

What is 'Remove' and what is 'Delete'? So many times I have pressed Remove only for it to be removed from my Saved Albums, not from the Play Queue. Why would I need to Remove something from my Saved Albums from the Play Queue? They also have the same X icon which adds to the confusion.

Hello!

That, indeed, looks confusing.

I believe that "Remove" is there because if that track wasn't in "Your Music", it would be a "Save" button.

I'll post something about this on the ideas section of the community.

Done! I posted a suggestion on the ideas board. You can add your kudos to support it here:
