Only Shuffle on Android for Free Accounts?

Why can't I just play a playlist on my phone?  Why do I have to shuffle?  I don't have to shuffle on my PC - just on my phone.

Hey @pluto1415 

I understand that the ability to choose the song which you want to play in the exact moment is awesome. Although Shuffle Only has always been a feature on the mobile apps, some things like this are what keeps Spotify Free up and running for all the users : ) 

You can support this idea which suggesting listening on demand on Free Spotify Mobile

Hi!
As the post above me says, on free android, you can only shuffle. You also only get 5 skips every hour. However, on tablet and PC devices, you can pick songs on demand, even when using free spotify.

I hope this helps 🙂 🎶
