Several utility features are included in the project.
* E.g. a generic alphabet slider that display either a alphabet during use or a regular slider. Image only displays when touched and hides a few seconds after.
* Several utility functions for formating dates
Custom animations are made in an animation class.
* The possibility to transition an array of objects in and another array of objects out, e.g. a slide left to right animation. This is used for swapping the Latest Media on home screen when swiping. Latest media is also changed with a transition animation every fifth second.
* Displace an array of objects with a certain number of pixels. Used for sliding panels to display e.g. the remote control.
Search functionality is activity sensitive, e.g. the Movies result are displayed on top when in Movies activity. Results are displayed interactively after each keystroke.\\
