See what's planned? Yes, please!
As the description of the topic says:
Yes, I'd like to see what's planned!
Now that we've been on v4.x for a while, what is the vision? What's there to look forward to? What do we want for BluOS? I realise companies won't share their full roadmaps, but we could have some more info on progress (be it fixes or new features) and the pipeline, yes? Where are the blog posts? Or even posts in these forums to talk about BluOS as a product and its current and upcoming capabilities?
Despite some rocky times recently I think there is huge opportunity to make BlueOS ecosystem really stand out.
Is BluOS really the "THE STREAMING PLATFORM FOR AUDIOPHILES"? Audiophiles expect more than just device control and basic playback from their platform. They expect a rich experience that allows them to discover, explore and enjoy music to the fullest. How can we call it an audiophile experience when Library offers metadata integration that is basic at best? Library views such as Artists, Albums, Songs, etc can't even be filtered by various criteria. If there are hundreds of artists in the list one need to scroll the entire list (or go to a whole different screen to do a search across the entire library, not just artists)??. Doesn't seem very 'audiophile' to me.
Don't get me wrong, I don't mean this as a rant or criticism. I do appreciate all the good things about BluOS which is exactly why I'd like to see it taken to the next level! So I thought I'd stir the pot a bit and hopefully get some good, positive conversation going.

Hi Alex,
Agreed that the current BluOs functionality is a bit limited and leans heavily on other apps like spotify.
What I would like to see in general includes:
- one central playlist in the BluOS app itself, where you can add from various sources like local library, spotify etc. The current queue appears detached from whats happening on other devices when adding stuff to queue.
- One central queue to unite streams from all sources would be next to where volume can be adjusted (now when in spotify i need to switch to bluos app to change volume or use remote)
- Option to not only add Music services, but please also a button to remove them from list! now its click and it sticks as recently used with no way to remove
- nonfunctional: a nice little clock on the display when system in rest? 15 years after the Logitech squeezebox for 100 euro's we cant get a clock on a 2000 euro device?
Regards,
Martijn

They've previously said they won't put out a roadmap to keep things from their competitors... Which IMHO is rubbish as their competitors' are now ahead of them, so a roadmap of at least playing catch-up would be nice, let alone what's beyond that.
Chromecast, Soundcloud, BBC Sounds, splitting Audio and Visual outputs (so could display "now playing" on connected TV)...
But no - just radio silence.
