    Amazon music users... Is it just me or...

    ... Is the app really unintuitive? I've got it on android, desktop, iPad and even their own Fire TV and I am always fighting it.

    For example: I like to listen to albums. I can easily see a list of all my albums... Great. Now let's say I want to pick an album from a specific genre to help me browse.
    I can't. I can see all the songs in that genre grouped by album but not a list of albums. So in Pop I have 43 albums which means scrolling through about 500 tracks.

    I genuinely wonder if it is actually this bad, or I'm losing my acuity for new tech now I'm not a teenager... What do other people make of the app? I find their TV one awful compared to Netflix too

    Use it, not had a problem but maybe I don't any specific needs? Will check and get back to you.

      I don't really use it. Buy what I want, use the app to download and then just use other players to play back. I agree though, it's an awful interface.

        It is almost a good interface, annoyingly. I'd like to use it because then it's consistent on all devices and obviously for streaming music, I have to.

        If I want to just play an album it's great, but the whole play queue also seems confusing - it can be quite hard to find what you're playing/queuing.

          Must try harder!

          FWIW, it is even worse in-car - I was pleased to see an update to MMI connect app thingy I have that introduced Amazon Music....works quite seamlessly on the car's screen (key thing here is wireless) but currently a missed opportunity in terms of UI...that said, enables me access to my AM sub, so....
