[jeanettekieline]

Hello, I'm blind I can not choose to go on a specific place on a song due to my disability. That's why I need it.

Yo,

love the idea but if you're on PC and just looking to seek forward 5 seconds in a song you hold shift and then click the right or left arrow respectively. This goes for skipping songs, simply hold the control key and press the right to left arrow accordingly.

as for mobile, I believe there is no way to seek so yes, great suggestion.

All the best.

Hope this helps!

hello again yes i have tried the shift command and the control command but due to my blind keyboard it can be the reason that i may not be able to use them.

Ohhh ok sorry I didn’t know. I’ll give it a vote up you! All the best
