Playback timeline location

I must admit, I don't know if this is a new change or if I've just not noticed it before.

The issue is that the timeline / slider for how far through a show is, is at the top of the playback window. Two problems with this location:

Every other video playback app that I'm aware of puts at the bottom
When scrubbing / navigating a show using it, my hand obscures most of the display, making it really awkward to scrub to the desired location in a recording

Please can it be relocated at the bottom of the screen and swapped with the show info banner that is current at the bottom? @tmm1

When this design was released, every iOS app had the timeline at the top

We'll be looking into redesigning the mobile video player UI in 2021.

Hi

I’ve recently started having a problem in this area where the controls aren’t positioned correctly anymore. They are so high on the screen that they are impossible to tap. I think something has gone wrong.

Here’s a screenshot.
