It would be great to have the possibility to have the calcification, marking with stars the songs or comments, notes like the Mac version, but in this occasion for the iPad version.
@Cristian_Montilla please use search before making new topics. Thanks! Here’s a link to the suggestion for a comment section on iOS as well: Implement a comment section
Hi @Slak_Jaw Is it somehow possible to get the star rating for iOS in the next update please?
Why is it so difficult to display the additional columns in IOS?
Thank you
Hi @DJKamyR, I’ve moved your post to this topic. Please use the blue vote button at the top left of this page to show you interest in adding this feature to djay. Thanks!
best for my collection and my folder Pls. Thanks
Yes, please please add Star Ratings for iOS. We’ve been asking a long time, and it’s the only thing keeping me from using DJay regularly. It runs so flawlessly on iPad Pro. All we need is to be able to freely rate songs and sort by rating (see a column). Please. Thanks.
Is this for real? Are you saying there’s no way to see the track rating in the iPad app?
That is correct. And I dont want to knock the developers because the rest of the app is outstanding. But it really needs this feature so we can manage our libraries effectively. It’s the only reason I’m not using Djay exclusively.
It is not made clear or expained by algoriddim but all library management features such as genre, rating, colour, coments, grouping etc are performed on the mac version.
Once you transfer your djay library from your mac to your ipad, all the info will come with it and you can then manage these fields on your ipad.
You will not be able to see them but you will be able to use them.
Oh no! I really hope the developers can fix it. It’s so frustrating when the main functions are in the DJ program and they’re not available. This is terrible! I’ve actually changed my mind about buying an iPad Pro and installing djay pro on it. I’ll wait until such an opportunity appears.
What does that mean? How can I use them?
The iPad will register most fields that have been edited on your Mac, it just won’t allow you to edit them.
I have given all my tracks a star rating on my Mac and as you can see from the image I can then use them on my iPad
In this image I have added all the other useful fields that once edited on your Mac you can use on your iPad.
Once you get used to the workflow it becomes very useful and handy
It works very similar to the apple music mac/ios workflow.
apple music on ios has very limited functionality, if you want to edit genre, year, grouping, rating etc you can only do it on the mac version.
Once you have edited these on a mac and synced your library the ipad/iphone will recognise the changes you have made.
Djay works in the same way apart from syncing them up which can be done but a little differently
@daniel_curley, thanks for the tip, very useful indeed! This can be applied to both Filtering within the library and as a criteria for the Smart Playlists.
@Slak_Jaw, I am also adding my vote to this request. Grouping, Rating & Comments as columns with value editing ability will be very beneficial to have on the iOS versions as well. I was looking for per-track “Edit Metadata” action in the “…” menu in the track list, but it’s not available. Perhaps that’s a good place to have the per-track editing.
Bulk editing ability for the Grouping and the Ratings values through the “Actions” menu would be very useful.
As the screen estate is limited on the iPad, perhaps an extra “Detailed List” view mode, displaying two lines of text for each tracks (with configurable fields) for the extra values would probably suite us well. Maybe there are other smarter/neater ways of showing it.
Alternatively, A simple “color” tag field for grouping is very easy to show as column, as a color dot would take super little space. Yet, we don’t have “Color” tagging, as alternative to Grouping in Djay. It would be very useful to have, given that that little on-screen space it would need …
I often do library preparation work on the iPad, and the ability to see & set values in these as file tags is most welcome!
