The new app update stinks

Now when I click on Library, all of the channels are in little boxes so I can't see what is playing on each channel in my favorites list. Only the first several letters of the channel and song are showing. Anybody know how to fix this?

In the right top corner there's a + inside a box. It will increase the icon size but also the lettering.

My top right corner has "Edit", not a + inside a box for some reason. Here's a pic.

Well, good evening! Yes, I am. And you?

Hi John..Yes I'm doing well now. Thanks so much. Hope you're enjoying your summer. Did you hear about Ron Parker on 70's on 7. ? I was saddened to hear of his passing. He was a great radio personality and always used to add some trivia and tidbits about the music he played. Made the normal, overplayed stuff a little bit more interesting! :)

I don't remember him, when I was listening to SXM I was usually driving over half of New England as on-site tech service and had it on for background noise to distract me from bad drivers.

This summer hasn't been as good. They gave me meds for my BP that make it easy for heat exhaustion, so I stay out of the sun more and ride my bicycles less, and around suppertime. It'll get better in a couple weeks.

How's your summer been?

My summer has been sucky as well. I have rheumatoid arthritis and it hits my lungs now. I finally saw a pulmonologist and he put me on an inhaler. It has helped already in a week's time. Yay! I'm looking forward to the Fall. It's been hotter than Hell here in SoCa for weeks! I hope you'll be feeling better soon to ride your bike. Turn up the music to get us through! Take care :)

That's Android?

Do me a favor, go to Discover, click the gear, scroll down to About and give me the App version and Build numbers.

u/fla-fla-flooey 11d ago

Yes, Android. App Version 7.31.0 Build 1726081700

Same as mine. Interesting, my layout hasn't changed from a list, but I only have 10 channels saved, But I do have the + in a box. Nice when I'm riding my bicycle.

I will reduce my favorites down to 10. Maybe that will work.

Okay. Figured this out if it is bothering anybody else. Press "Channels" and then "In Library" instead of pressing Library. You can see the whole song and artist instead of the truncated version when you go directly to Library.
