· Hello Roon Support,

I am using a Xiaomi Redmi Pad 2 as a Roon Remote. Previously I used an iPad Air 2, where the full Roon interface worked correctly.

On the Redmi Pad 2 several library functions are missing. In particular:

I cannot edit an album. The Edit option is missing both from the album menu and after selecting an album with a long press.
When I filter My Albums by artist (for example Pink Floyd), I cannot sort the resulting albums by release date as I could on my iPad.

Roon Remote and Roon Server are both running Roon 2.71 (build 1683).

Server: Nucleus+

Android tablet display information:

Device: Xiaomi Redmi Pad 2
Display: 10.92"
Resolution: 2560 × 1600
Density: 360 dpi (xhdpi)
Smallest Width reported by Display Info: 711 dp
Refresh rate: 90 Hz

I have already tried changing Android display scaling and Smallest Width (including 600 dp and 650 dp), completely restarting Roon after the changes. The Edit function still does not appear.

Hi @Gabor_Korodi,

Thanks for the report. Smaller screen sizes can have more limited options in Roon by design, but since this is a tablet, it sounds should be able to use the full space. We’ll check with the team on this one and get back to you.
