wonderful but - no titles

Am I missing something? No titles come up on my phone. I cannot see what poem or author I am listening to!
:(

Terrible

There is no way to know what poem is being read. There are no pauses between poems. There is not even a list of what is being read to refer to. Very frustrating.
