Option to turn off scroll bar at foot of UI

I never use the Music scroll bar at the foot of the Roon UI intentionally. But every day because I use an iPad mini as my preferred control device I inadvertently hit it when trying to exit the Roon app.

Playback gets wrecked and sometimes I have to restart Roon on the server, it is my biggest frustration with the UI.

There is no way that I know to change the exit app swipe up on the iPad.

So PLEASE for the love of all that’s holy, PLEASE give us an option to turn off the music scroll bar input so I don’t throw my iPad at something.

It’s one of the reasons I use a floating home button via the AssistiveTouch feature… :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

You, Giles , are worth your weight in frogs’ feathers. Seriously, thankyou.

Is that a good thing?

Not lately. :smiley:

I shouldn’t have to bring up Assistive tools just because Roon doesn’t leave an option to activate or deactivate the scrobbler…
It turned way worse with this latest release, and i tend to fast forward or rewind in the current track way more than ever before.

Please give us an option to deactivate!

Hmm… I think it’s more a case of I shouldn’t have to bring up Assistive tools just because Apple chose such an awkward way to return to the home screen without them.

One might question that, but simple fact it works for ALL of my various apps, except for Roon who chose to place a “swipe sensitive control” exactly where one is expected to swipe for other reasons.

I can likely learn to swipe elsewhere, to avoid this, but i still feel it would be nice to be able to disable the “scrollbar/scrobble-function” on the spectrogram.

I don’t disagree, assuming the user never needs to actually use it to scrub to a certain track position. I do so regularly, to jump to the last few seconds of a track so Roon records it as ‘played’. On that score it would nice to have a button that simply skipped to the next track, marking the current as ‘played’, without such scrubber antics. Yes, I know a track is marked ‘played’ after 30 seconds anyway but I get impatient…
