Instagram Fade effect

When you share your song on instagram, it gives you 3 options where 2 of them are plain colors and 1 has a faded effect but I don't see it. I even updated Spotify and instagram and nothing has changed. Please help

Hi there @4urxlien,

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the Spotify Community!

Is the faded effect missing on your end or nothing happens when you click on it? It'd be great if you can send us a screenshot so that we can have a closer look.

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far? If not, I'd recommend starting off with a clean reinstall to ensure you're running the latest version and to remove any damaged cache.

This is what I see on my end - one of the songs has a Canvas and only has two color options:

Keep us posted.

After I posted this comment, I saw the fade effect come back and it disappeared again yesterday. I cleared the app's cache and reinstalled the app and I still don't see it...

Hi there, @4urxlien,

Thanks for testing!

At Spotify, we're often testing and launching improvements to the app. This means you might occasionally see something your friend doesn’t, or get a new feature to try temporarily.

Your feedback on this is important, as it may ultimately end up paving the way for our broader user experience. Thanks for sharing it here - we appreciate it. 💚

In the meantime, make sure you're always running the latest version of Spotify so you don't miss out on any updates.

The Community is just a post away if there's anything else you need assistance with.
