Kinoma Notes

Can’t remember where you stopped? Kinoma Play does!

Kinoma Play is chock full of lit­tle niceties that cus­tomers really appre­ci­ate. We’d need a 20-foot-tall prod­uct page to list them all, so instead we like to talk about them here.

For exam­ple, did you know that Kinoma Play auto­mat­i­cally remem­bers where you stopped play­ing some­thing so you don’t have to?

This is a super-convenient way to nib­ble on long-form con­tent like pod­casts and audio­books as you have time — nib­ble while you shop, nib­ble while you work out, nib­ble while you drive (with audio-only con­tent, please!).

His­tory continued

This fea­ture works great with His­tory, another handy Kinoma Play feature.

Choose His­tory on the Home screen for a list of every­thing you’ve lis­tened to lately, and then choose an item to con­tinue right where you left off.

Phone inter­rup­tions? No problem

This fea­ture also lets you auto-continue after you make or receive a phone call.

Kinoma Play auto­mat­i­cally pauses what you’re play­ing and then auto­mat­i­cally resumes it when the call com­pletes, slowly fad­ing up the vol­ume as it does. Smooooth!

    I’ve noticed this fea­ture and like it, but some­times I want to just quit a song (for instance) and after I back out of where I was and try to shut down, I see that the song is still wait­ing to con­tinue, What action am I miss­ing that will allow me to quit instead of pause. Right now I’ve only fig­ured out to quit Kinoma all together but that seems to take sev­eral steps (and some­times sev­eral tries).?

    I dont con­sider the auto-continue a nice fea­ture. And i wish there where a way to dis­able it.

    The most time i hear music with nor­mal in-ear phones. When i get a phone call, i have to remove these from the phone. But after the call ends, this fea­ture con­tin­ues play­ing. So when i am not fast enough to rein­sert the ear phones, it starts play­ing on the phones speaker. Which isn’t nice when you sit in a train.

    It would be much bet­ter if it auto-continues play­ing first after the head­phone was rein­serted again, when it was con­nected before.
