Hi @deannx!

Thanks for posting in the Spotify Community!

From the screenshot it looks like you are currently part of a test that Spotify is currently running with it's desktop experience. Spotify is always running tests and looking to improve the user experience in as many ways as possible, you can learn more about testing at Spotify here.

Right now, it's not possible to opt-out of these tests however if your not happy with the new experience I'd recommend adding a +VOTE here to show your interest to Spotify to returning back to what you had previously.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

logout and login again. it got fixed for me (and many others) today.
got the old design back, finally. lets just hope the new design will never come back and the people responsible for it got fired already 😄

Hey team,

I actually WANT the new layout. I have it on another account of mine, but I don't have it on my main.

Is it possible to somehow change the existing layout on my account?

Thanks!

Hey @ryanfernandez,

Thanks for reaching out about this.

The new UI will be rolled out to all users eventually.

When the update becomes available on your account, a blue dot appears next to the menu button in the top-right corner of the app.

Click in the top-right.
Select Update Available. Restart Now.

Hope this info is helpful.
