Feature description

In the YouTube music settings, there could be a switch that removes album artwork and artist images from being displayed anywhere in the app. This includes the foreground service notification. There are many ways to implement this. Here are two decent options:

Color-Based:

  • The app could generate a unique color or gradient for each album, replacing the album artwork with a simple but identifiable visual marker.
  • The color assignment could be based on a hash function of the album name, ensuring that the same album always receives the same color across devices.

Text-Based:

  • Instead of album covers or artist images, the app could display just the name of the album, single, or artist in a clean, text-based layout.

Motivation

Album artwork and artist images are often inappropriate for many settings. This would allow users to listen to the music they want, without having to worry about what is being displayed. It could also be a useful to for distraction reduction and increased privacy.
