Hello i have an important question. I turned on notifications, but i dont get one if an artist is releasing new songs/albums. Dont get notifications on my phone, on any spotify device or per e-mail. Would appreciate any help.

Hey @yungcilota

That's pretty interesting! I get emails from Spotify about the Release Radar updates.

Have you enabled/checked the 'Your Music'-related things in your account settings?

Keep me posted! 🙂

Finally! I know about the Release radar thing, but it is not 1) updated sometimes 2) missing releases. And as far as i know it is only for singles, right?

For example, i guess i am following like 200 artists and never want to miss a release, but i do miss them because i dont get any notifications on my phone.

Sometimes i get a notification on the app saying ''new music for you'' and thats 1 album out of so many releases.

I want to get a notification on my phone for EVERY release (album and songs).

Everything 'your music'-related is enabled btw.

It should look like this in my phone/e-mail notifications (no idea if it works like this):

Artist 01 released a new song called XY

Artist 02 released a new album called XY

etc, i guess you understand what i mean.

I know it might sound like a small problem, but for someone who is listening to so much music it is a big problem. 😞

Oh, you meant those push notifications. I used to have them actually, it was cool.

Unfortunately the feature seems to have been removed. They may return something akin to that, but the Idea about bringing back notifications from followed artists is currently on hold. Sorry about that!

You can see a selection of newly released music under Browse - Discover - New Releases For You.
If you use last.fm, then that webpage also has a section for new releases tailored to your taste.

Hope this helps, have a nice day! 🙂
