[iOS] Viewing all contributing artists feature missing

CannonFire — Tue, 10 Mar 2020 04:22:36 GMT

In a previous update of the iOS version of the app, the "View Artist" button would say "View Artists" if multiple artists collaborated on a song, and each artist's profile would be visible. I checked the PC version, and it allows you to instantly see and access all collaborating artists, but the iOS version does not any longer. I am not referring to the Song Credits page. The most important difference between the "View Artists" page and the Song Credits page is that each artists used to be hyperlinked on a single page, allowing Spotify users to visit each artist's page without having to perform a separate search.

I'd be willing to bet that very few people are actually going to search for an artist instead of tapping on a linked profile, which significantly decreases artist exposure. That alone should be reason enough to re-implement this feature.

Hey @CannonFire, welcome to the Community.

Hope you're doing great!

This feature seems to work for albums that are labeled as Various Artists (movie soundtracks and similar stuff).

You can check this example.

Hope it helps and take care 🙂
