To seek forward you just press and hold your finger on the right side of the screen and to seek backward you do the same on the left side of the screen. With this method you have the whole screen to control your music. MENU The menu hasn't got a back button, but also uses a gesture to go back.

CURRENT SONG You can go quickly to the current song by pressing the album art of the song in the menu. On the same way you go back to the menu from the music player.
