Windows Phone 8/10 UPDATE - It's about darn time

zapach_starca — Thu, 18 Feb 2016 10:51:00 GMT

I see many people speaking of this problem, so it wouldn't hurt to remind Spotify about this. Again.

Especially when two weeks ago they officially cut the support for Symbian, Blackberry etc. If they included WP in this, I would actually have nothing against it, since then I would be pretty sure that at this point I should end my subscription and choose another service. Right know I'm still not sure if I should pay for service that isn't really treating me well. In November 2015 I switched to my old Android phone - Sony Xperia J. It's really slow, with only 512MB of RAM, but since it's Android, it recieved over 5 updates for Spotify since that November. What the hell? My 4-year old phone can receive updates, while my newer WP cannot?

Oh, and don't you just love it that among "Labels" there is no Windows Mobile 10. It's like Spotify doesn't even know, that such OS exists.

I am also thinking about canceling my subscription due to the poor windows phone app. Every other app on my windows phone(L925 and 640) is quick, this app is so slow. Slowness asside, I cannot stand that the playback times out if its paused for a minute or so causing me to have to open the (slow) app again if I want to resume.

Just go to Deezer like i did. They seem to take care of Windows Mobile (Phone) users.

I've also moved to Deezer. Their universal app came out recently, and it works great on Windows 10 & Windows 10 Mobile.

Spotify, your app for Windows Phone is garbage, slow and with far less features than the iOS/Android app, and it has not been updated for A YEAR. This led to me cancelling my 2 year long long subscription. Good riddance Spotify.
