Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

I am still having the offline mode issue and downloading problems. I would like to have the product functional before suggesting cosmetic fixes.

Is it just me or doesn't Shazam work now?
Im guessing it doens't feel the pre-release is installed and wants me to install the old version from google Play?

Would be nice to see the time of the tracks. That seems to be missing.

Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

Overall an excellent upgrade.  I have a couple requests for:

 

  • Better queue management. Sometimes it's not clear whether Spotify is playing a single song or an entire playlist/album.  Also, trying to go to the previous song seems to give inconsistent results.  (Going previous then next then previous, the second previous will go to a different song.)
  • Please include an option to play Artist radio stations like the desktop client. I love that feature on your desktop client, and it would be great to have it on the mobile one as well.
  • Allow us to browse new releases *by genre*.

This is a big step in the right direction. If you can add these features it would make for a top notch mobile client. 

 

Thanks!

Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

Anyone else gettting this preview to work on the Galaxy Nexus (Verizon LTE version)?  Old version was working great until yesterday and now neither will load properly.  They both hang before I can see any playlists or anything.  Old one just immediately quits back to launcher without a message.  New version just gives me a grey screen with a title bar.

Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

A both good and bad update. It's really a great improvement on my Nexus S phone but t's *horrible* on my Asus Transformer tablet.No landscape mode makes it all but unusable when the tablet is in the keyboard dock and it constantly jumps between offline and online mode about every other second, the result being that I can only listen to the playlists I synched before the update. I would also like to see a proper tablet oriented UI-mode more similar to the desktop client before this is allowed to go live in the market.

Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

Really like it (except for downloading problems) but the following would be nice:

 

- Option to only download new songs over 3G when charging 

- Mobile versions of Spotify apps? Like TuneWiki

- Folders
- Smooth effects around the app? Like when playing a song the "Now Playing" screen could slide up from bottom (like old app)

 

Would be nice extras to bring to the app, especially the 3G thing because it really drains battery and I do like downloading things over 3G but it would be nice to have my phone do it over night while it's charging without having the effect on my battery.

Re: Spotify for Android now available for preview

Loving the related artist feature and the redesign of the artist view in genreal - very slick. Missing the ability to add a whole album to an existing playlist, all you can do is add an album as a new playlist or add tracks individually to an existing one. Not sure why this is missing, hope it should ba simple fix. Also would like the album title for each track in the playlist view like we used to have.
