Hello everyone,
Like everyone else here, I use tags, and especially the "comments" tag, to sort my music, create in one click a new playlist, or search for a very specific song.
All this is possible in Windows file explorer, because the search engine can look into all the tags.
Then, if I wrote for example "firstListening2010" as "Comments" tag of all the songs i used to listen to that year, I can write this term in the search bar and create the playlist of my high-school years.
But I would also like to do the same research on my Android phone. I tried a lot of free players, and none can read inside other tags than Artists, Albums or Name...
Then, does anyone know of a way to create playlists on Android with a search that read all the tags of all songs?
Thank you
Stéphane

One player app that breaks from this trend and I have been using for some time is GoneMAD. It builds its’ own database library, and key to me is that it supports the use of sort tags for Album, Artist, AlbumArtist, and Composer. It also supports multi artist an…
