[Mobile] Swipe left to 'Hide this song'

[kkzo]

There are too many taps required to 'Hide this song'. Having to select the menu next to the song often leads to mistakenly selecting the song you were going to hide.

Currently swiping right is a shortcut for 'Adding to queue'. Consider adding swiping left (on the song) to trigger 'Hide this song'. Allowing the user to configure directional swipe actions would be even better.

I'm against having a left swipe to hide, as people might confuse the direction for queuing and hiding and personally I'm not at all interested in hiding songs, but letting people map swipes to a series of predefined actions would actually be a great feature.

To prevent people from accidentally swipe left . Maybe we can just make it so you have to swipe left twice or something to confirm it .

Swipe left is how you like a song on iOS so I would not be a fan of this change.

Me personally I wouldn't want this, tho I think it'd be good as a optional feature.
