Doesn't Work – Album Flow Review

My issues with "Album Flow" are the same with A "Album Flow Pro" …… At first I was somewhat impressed with Album Flow, but after playing around with it for about 10 minutes (on iOS7.1.2), I realized this app has issues. One big issue for me was the fact that it was showing all 123 of my music albums in the main scrolling … but also all my audiobooks, and TV videos (three seasons of Seinfeld!), all in one scroll line-up. This app needs to only show either the music, video, or audiobooks in one scroll line-up … not all together, It should better match Apple Cover Flow in iOS4-6 (Music Albums Only). Also, even though my audiobooks and TV Videos were in the main scroll line-up, NONE of them would open or play … only the music played when selected. The other issue (small), is that the "reflection" setting should have a "reflection dimmer", so the reflections can be dimmed down. Right now they are to close to 100% reflection of the album art, and should be a much thinner percentage value of reflection. There were some features I liked, like being able to choose the background field color, etc., but over-all …. I ended up deleting the app from my iPhone and went back to using Apples music player for now! At least my music, audiobooks, and videos are all INDEPENDENTLY selectable in their own sections ….. not all bunched up into one viewing line-up scroll. This app needs to seriously be "re-worked" to distinguish between music files (mp3, Acc, Aiff, etc, ), and Audiobook files (.m4b, etc.), TV Show/Video files (mp4, etc.), and to NOT display all these different items all in one continuous swipe line-up. The settings on this app should be set-up to allow users to separate the previously mentioned Music, Audiobooks, and TV Show/Video into SEPARATE viewable scrolling line-ups (or to block what the user doesn't want to show up in the main "album scroll line-up". With a little more work … this app could be a great replacement for Apple's discontinued "Cover Flow"!
