If you couldn't find any answers in the previous step then we need to post your question in the community and wait for someone to respond. You'll be notified when that happens.
Simply add some detail to your question and refine the title if needed, choose the relevant category, then post.
Before we can post your question we need you to quickly make an account (or sign in if you already have one).
Don't worry - it's quick and painless! Just click below, and once you're logged in we'll bring you right back here and post your question. We'll remember what you've already typed in so you won't have to do it again.
Steps to replicate:
1. Create a new playlist
2. Make it collaborative.
3. Send the link to a Spotify member who is on your Family Plan, who follows the playlist now.
4. Add a song to the playlist.
5. The other members who are following do not get emails or notifications about additions.
Previously, when the same users were not part of the same Family Plan, each would receive notifications of additions to the playlist.
Desired behavior:
Playlist followers should get notifications regardless of the plan membership.

Hello @prinzmaus
Could you have a look over here for me and see if all the correct notification settings are selected?
I hope to hear back from you soon! 🙂
Ok i shall escalate the issue and see if Someone else maybe has a solution to your problem 🙂
Hi, @prinzmaus!
Can you test something for us?
1. Share a collaborative playlist with a friend (who's not a member of your Family plan).
2. Ask your friend to add a few songs to the playlist.
3. Check if you get any notifications at all.
Please let us know and we'll investigate the issue.
Thanks,
Teresa
Hey @prinzmaus,
Thanks for all the information provided.
We'll pass it on to the right team so they can take a look into it.
We're always working on ways to improve the way Notifications work and to make new added tracks more visual.
Hopefully we'll have some good news soon.
Thanks!
I have the same exact problem. It persists.
I have all notifications enabled, but lately I I've been receiving notifications only on new releases, never on tracks added to collaborative playlists or public playlists I follow.
Thanks
Any update on this? I haven't received notifications on other's playlists for ages now. It really diminishes the social aspect of playlists, something that would distinguish Spotify from Apple Music in significant ways.
Kind regards,

This quite old with no resolution that I can find anyway. Updates?
No change. I get no email notifications, and inconsistent Push Notifications. I use almost all of the the email notifications below, all of them are enabled. I do not get the notifications.
My favorite thing to do is make collaborative playlists with my GF. I do not get any emails when she follows the playlist nor when she adds anything to it. I used to love these emails. I get an inbox notification that she subscribes, but no push notification for it. And no messages at all for any changes that she makes to the playlist.
No update. Seems like Spotify has removed a lot if not all of this form of communication within Spotify. I am considering writing my own method for this using the API. It sucks because it was a great way to connect with my family and friends over music.
It would be great to be able to get notifications about when people contribute a new song to a collaborative playlist!
- Spotify - from looking at other post suggestions seems this idea has been floating around for some time (since 2012) and numerous times suggested since then but not linked up. Would be great if this could be picked up - could really promote more sharing and widening of listening content!
Look forward to hearing back from you, thanks!
