What am I missing?

I have owned the Zem MK.3 for almost 3 years now and it has maybe 20 hours on it because I still prefer using my Bluesound BluOs player.
From the time of purchase, the MK.3 has been glitchy and the sense app did not work as well as my BluOs. Two features that I use regularly on Tidal Native or BluOs is the track and artist radio. I love this feature, and as far as I can figure, the sense app still does not have this feature. Again, it’s a feature that I use regularly and is important to me. Also a feature that I like to have, is the ability to go anywhere in my saved tracks or an artists tracks, pick a song and have it play my chosen song and continue to play the next songs and keep going. It’s how I like to listen to my music. I no longer have the time or much opportunity to sit and listen to albums or playlists.
So am I missing something? Does the sense app allow choosing a song anywhere on my saved tracks list and continue to play the next tracks. As far as I can figure, if I scroll down and select a track it only plays that one track and will not continue playing the next tracks. Why? This seems like a basic function.
Also, I do not see the option in the ellipsis icon for track or artist radio. Why not?
I have been waiting and waiting for the sense app to do what the Tidal Native and BluOs app do.
Am I missing something?

It’s probably time to sell my Zen MK.3 since I don’t use it. Actually, it’s probably way past the time I should have sold it.

Regarding playing subsequent tracks that come next in the list, yes Sense has always supported this so I don't understand why this is not the case for yourself. It should always gone on to play the next tracks in the list.
As for Song or Artist Radio, no we do not have this feature but the recently added SmartQ may help fill this role as an 'autoplay' of playing related music to what you have just played from the queue. You can give this a try now if your ZEN is fully up to date.
If the player never plays more than one track at a time then please send a screenshot of the Now Playing screen - this is not the correct behaviour.

Hi Stephen,
To be clear, I am not talking about starting from the first track and clicking Play. I am talking about scrolling down and clicking on a track and playing from there. I will test it again and attach a screen shot.
As for the SmartQ, I have tried it. As far as I understand, it is not the same as getting a station from a particular song or artist. Don’t understand why BluOs can do this but not Innuos.

I scrolled down my list of tracks, clicked on a song and only that song played. View attachment 485
I just did the same for this artist and it stops playing after one song. Again, I am not hitting the Play icon. That starts play from the first song. If I want to play from a song further down and have it continue to play, I have to do multiple clicks with the forward arrow and the app doesn’t seem to like this very much. But I should not have to do this.
