Provide more ways to organize playlists, such as folders

xandpaper — Mon, 27 Nov 2023 11:47:16 GMT

I have a ton of playlists and I think it would be helpful to have some more organizational features for them. Pinning is helpful but pinned or unpinned really only provides two subdivisions and you kind of have to scroll through all of your pinned playlists to get to unpinned so it ends up burying the rest of your playlists. I think it would be helpful to have a folder-like feature that allows me to group together my playlists. For example, I make monthly playlists that serve as a music diary and I think that it would be helpful to be able to group these together, and to group playlists that others made for me together, blends, etc.

Hi there @xandpaper,

Thanks for reaching out. What you mentioned is already possible. You can create folders with playlists, even put folders inside of other folders or shuffle everything inside a specific folder. Be advised though that a lot of these options are only on the desktop app, but once you have created a folder structure, you will be able to see it on mobile too. You can find more info on the topic here.

Hope this helps.

i have so many playlists. i wish i could have all of them more organized so they are easier to find. if i had a folder of all my sad playlists per say then they would all be together.

the folder feature is very nice to sort the library, but it would be cool if it was possible to play all songs from folder

Dear Spotify,

I am a user of the app and believe that better playlist optimization would enhance the experience. My suggestion is to add a feature that allows users to archive or organize playlists into named folders. Often, we accumulate playlists that we don't listen to frequently but don't want to delete either. With this functionality, it would be possible to store old playlists or create new ones for different activities, making library organization easier.

Best regards,
