What feature do you want?

Dear NewPipe developers!
Please make it possible to quickly switch between the player and the content list.
For example, during playback, there is a Go To Player button next to the pause / play and close buttons. The player, respectively, has a button Go to the content list. An alternative could be to assign a gesture to this feature. That is, the user can specify which gesture he wants to use.
I open this as a function request, because from the point of view of a blind user who uses a screen reader, there is nothing like it.

Why do you want this feature?

To get to the player, I need to do the following:

  1. Turn on playback;
  2. Go to the notifications panel;
  3. Remove the name of the content being played and activate it.
    This is inconvenient, because both content and speech synthesizer are played at the same time.
    In the settings, I turned on the display of the player in full screen, but it seems that it does not help.

I will be grateful for resolving this issue.

Thank you for the issue.

Feedback from my side:

  1. There is no "content list" in this app - I don't know what you mean: The search? The "start" screen? ...
    I also can't follow the "To get to the player, I need to do the following:"-manual
  2. As @SameenAhnaf already mentioned: This issue should be closed in favor of Let an in-app way to access background player controls/PlayQueueActivity #3515

@litetex You must have misunderstood me:

  1. I like the ability to switch to the player from the notification bar. But the fact that such a possibility exists, a blind user must guess ...
  2. I would like to have a faster way to get to the player from the content list or subscription list. That is an alternative.
  3. I do not mind closing this issue.
