Permanently changing track order

SamPintens — Thu, 06 Jul 2017 23:20:10 GMT

Hello,
I'm a sports entertainer and do every day activities with my music.
Therefore I have the premium account wich I really like.
The only thing I find very annoying is the way we have to change the song order..
I have my playlists for different kinds of activities but I NEED to be able to put my songs in certain order before starting my activities. I often add songs but don't always want to create a new playlist or remove the songs I need to have after a newly added song.

MY SUGGESTION:
Since there is the three-dot menu behind every song, the long-press is unnecessary for entering the menu..
PLEASE can you make it at least possible in filter option "Personal" to drag and drop the songs in the order we want!?

I checked the forum and this easy to solve and very basic issue has been asked for a solution since several YEARS!!!

I'm hoping to see a change soon because it's driving me crazy.

Greetings,
Sam

Hi there,

Luckily there is a solution for this!. If you logon to spotify through a computer i.e. Windows you can edit your song orders through there. The only issue with this is this option is not yet available on Android or iOS.

Perhaps you should send this idea through the spotify Inquiry or the Idea Submission.

you can do this here:

I hope that helps!. Dont hesitate to message me if you need any more information. Thanks

Hey shaf-4,
Thanks for the reply!

Problem with the laptop is that I don't want to carry that around all the time and I would also need internet on both devices to change the order so it's quite a hassle to do it that way...
I will try the idea channel!

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply!.

I'll just say now that if you change the track order on a laptop by clickin on a song in the playlist and moving it up it will also move up on your phone permenantly unless you otherwise change it.

If you found anything useful don't hesitate to drop a like or a kudos!

Thanks.
