Troubles since new spotify app

Hi,

I have spotify premium and am having troubles with the app since the new version. Hoping there is a work around or a way to revert back to the old app? I've waited a while before complaining as it's normally just a getting used to the new thing but this just isn't working.

1. The new 'like' thing instead of save or whatever it was. I used to be able to save an album and it would show up in my all songs list (which no longer exists and is now 'liked' songs). This doesn't work anymore. I 'like' an album but then I still need to 'like' every individual song in the album to get them to show up in the liked songs folder. This seems like a massive oversight?

2. My way of listening to spotify is to go to all my songs list, hit play on shuffle. On top of the issue above, if I then click on one song to listen to, when I go back to my all songs list to listen my preferences are reset (ie shuffle is turned off).

3. If I click on albums or artists, it's impossible to get them to sort in alphabetical order.

Is there any solution to this? It's annoying as. Thanks!
