Hello DT.

Over all I love the app and I think its really good except for the way the menu is navigated.

I have previously made this suggestion over the years of using DT on my android device, and it is by fay the most annoying thing about the app.  

Please make the top left menu always do the same thing. it drives me MAD.

I should always make the Album/artist/playlist/podcast menu come up. 

Some times its one click away other times its 5 clicks away.  swipe up>menubar back button>top left back button> top left menu.   I know most of the time its only 2 or 3 clicks away but the fact that it different is frustrating. if you not paying attention to exactly what menu you are in you can accidentally back out of the app.   Imagine you hand your phone to someone to choose music when you are driving, it is very un-intuitive to navigate. I always end up having to pull over and do it my self.     It would be so good to be able to say "just hit the top left menu button to get to...."

I often use google music, yt music and PLEX to get around this problem.    

Please lets simplify the menu system. 

Thank you, I hope you fund my input informative.

  AGREED!  Navigation is 10 years out of date.   Lets standardise it to be very intuitive.    At the moment its is very frustrating, I have given up on using pod casts for this reason.  make the menu button always take you to album/artist/podcast like in your picture.
