Multiple select feature (eg. to create playlist faster)

Situation
It is possible to create a playlist by pressing+hold a song. This brings the context menu with the options Delete, Rename, Decoding speed test and Add to playlist.

Problem
There is no select mode to select multiple songs and do either Delete or Add to playlist.
Doing Add to playlist for 30 songs is tedious work from phone.

Workaround
It could be done from the desktop computer instead.

Potential solution
  • When tapping and holding a song, activate a "select mode" where all songs have a checkmark at the left of each item.
  • In "select mode", add icon buttons on a top bar for the options Add to playlist and Delete.
    • Adding a "select all" button that, upon selecting all, the button changes to "de-select all" would be very useful.
    • Adding a confirmation for deletion of multiple songs would be safe.
    • Adding a button to cancel select mode at one of the corners is necessary.
  • Upon tapping on one of the action buttons, perform the operation on all checkmarked songs from select mode.
