    <description>&lt;P&gt;Ability to hide or temporarily pause (“hibernate”) a song within a playlist so it will not play during normal playback. This allows users to take a break from songs they’ve heard too often without permanently removing them from the playlist.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://community.spotify.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/27113271"&gt;@Gabben&lt;/a&gt;,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can hide songs in playlists from the three dots menu via the&lt;STRONG&gt; (-)&amp;nbsp;/ X buttons&lt;/STRONG&gt; or from the option in the three dots menu. Songs you've hidden won't be played by the app and will instead be skipped immediately. You can undo this anytime by repeating this process. Check out the screenshots below for an in-depth view:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;LI-SPOILER&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Three dots menu." style="width: 441px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.spotify.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/203808i48AA030F8A0F6FDD/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screenshot_20260114-174813817.jpg" alt="Three dots menu." /&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-caption" onclick="event.preventDefault();"&gt;Three dots menu.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Song is now hidden and won't be played." style="width: 441px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.spotify.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/203806iE72FCD0373B3F60F/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screenshot_20260114-174712989.jpg" alt="Song is now hidden and won't be played." /&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-caption" onclick="event.preventDefault();"&gt;Song is now hidden and won't be played.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/LI-SPOILER&gt;
&lt;P class="lia-indent-padding-left-30px"&gt;&lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":warning:"&gt;⚠️&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;STRONG&gt;Note&lt;/STRONG&gt;: Hiding a track makes it unplayable only in that specific playlist/album. This means that you'll still be able to play it everywhere else, unless you manually hide it there as well.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;On the mobile app, there's also an option to "snooze" hidden tracks in certain playlists, thus excluding them in all recommendations and across all platforms for 30 days. That way, you can keep things fresh while leaving the door open for a future reunion. There's more info in&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;A style="font-family: inherit; background-color: #ffffff;" href="https://newsroom.spotify.com/2025-05-07/experience-a-new-dimension-of-music-discovery-with-more-controls-and-enhanced-tools/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow noreferrer"&gt;this article&lt;/A&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;, check it out, if you're interested.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot_20260114-174701784.jpg" style="width: 441px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.spotify.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/203809iDDF30F69690F54D2/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screenshot_20260114-174701784.jpg" alt="Screenshot_20260114-174701784.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Hope you found this useful. Cheers &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":sign_of_the_horns:"&gt;🤘&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Disable songs in a playlist (Without removing)</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you're getting burned out from a song or just don't want to listen to it for a while, be able to disable so it won't show up in your queue until re-enabled.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
