Android app - sharing songs/albums

[MediocreFred]

Hello,

Currently on Subsonic v4.6 on Windows. Predominantly use the Android app to listen.

Very recently got interested in the ability to share albums and songs. I've set up the server to where I see the facebook/twitter sharing links on albums and songs while accessing Subsonic over a browser. I have also verified that the share url works/plays fine using the guest account on a different PC.

Is it possible to similarly share an album or even better, an individual song using the Android client? I use the Android app almost exclusively and often find myself listening to a song that I want to share with one or two friends. If I was using a web browser, I would share the song, grab the <server>/share/xxxx link and email or text it to my friends. I would like to get the same functionality with the Android client, but, don't see any option to do so. I am not really interested in last.fm or even the facebook/twitter sharing. All I want is to be able to generate a <server>/share/xxxx url for any song in my playlist on the Android app; I can then email the url as needed.

I looked through the Android app, but, don't see an option to share. Am I just missing something obvious? I am on the most recent version (from market.android.com) of the Android App.

Thanks,
MediocreFred.

Anybody?

At least, please tell me if the sharing functionality is even available on the Android client; if it is not, I'll stop looking for it and put in a request in the "Requests" section.

Thanks in anticipation!

It does not currently exist.

Thanks Glenn. I will add it to the Requests forum.

That said, are there any workarounds? Android App users - how do you share any song album from the phone, or, is that just a unique need I have?
