[Android] Long Press on Android

Status: Live Idea

For a week or two now I've lost the option to long-press on a song, album, etc. in order to access the menu for things like adding it to the queue or a playlist. This was by far the easiest way to interact with the app. Please reimplement this feature. Please. Like really. Please.

new update has the plus sign next the song to add to playlist I don't want to add everything to like, and the 3 dots are practically useless now, old one was better all you had to do was long press for all the necessary information not everything needs to be changed

It's Nov 4th, 2025 and this bug came back a few updates back. Long-pressing a song doesn't do anything anymore.

We should be able to long press a song to select it and be able to select multiple songs. If long press is not good for every device there can be a select button on the screen at the top of the playlist page and/or beside every song. It would make adding multiple songs from one artist to a playlist much more easier.

This is actually so frustrating. Let's say I want to make a playlist that has one artist in it only. I have to go to every album and press the three dots beside each song I want and add it to the playlist. It takes so much time and you sometimes forget the last song you added so you press the three dots again and it's just overall annoying. It would be great to have this feature.
