My Question or Issue

Hello,

 

For 2 weeks, i often have trouble with the songs queue. Playlist is added twice in the queue, or songs from the previous session remains in the queue and won't let me play something else until I delete them. When I just want to add ONE podcast to the queue, between musics, it would play the next podcasts of the author instead of the queue...

 

Where is the Clear Queue button in the queue ? I can't see it anymore, is there any other way to clear the queue than cleaning the cache ? (Easier options than cleaning the cache every damn time...)

Hey everyone! I'm not a spotify moderator, but hopefully this post will help. Essentially, what is happening is that you should see something that is under "Now playing" (the song you are currently listening to). After that, you might see either the phrase "Next in queue" or "Next up". To be completely clear, these are two different things. "Next in queue" is whatever song, playlist, album, podcast, etc that you clicked on and clicked "Add to queue" and is prioritized over "Next up", therefore if you simply add in your thing into the queue and suddenly want to move to a different thing without eventually returning to your original thing, you can click the "Clear queue" button to the right of "Next in queue" to clear it completely, then add into queue what you wish to listen to and hit play. If what you want to listen to is under the "Next up" section, then there is no need to add it to the queue. The "Next up" section is where all of your songs that you've listened to already start to accumulate, along with spotify recommendations if you have that on. Think of it as a playlist full of old/recommended music. There is no clear all button for the "Next up", but you can try to log out/close spotify, perhaps it might clear it automatically.

Hope this helps!
