Let me permanently disable Smart Shuffle

Solved!

Let me permanently disable Smart Shuffle

Plan: Premium

Country: USA

Device: Pixel 3xl

 

I do not want to use Smart Shuffle, at all, ever. For the past few months it has been screwing up my Liked Songs and it is extremely annoying. When I turn off shuffle because I am in a block of songs I want to listen to, the next song it plays will ALWAYS be a specific song instead of the next song in the list. This specific song changes whenever I add more songs to my liked songs.

I am **bleep** off. I've been a subscriber for many years. I DO NOT WANT YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS IN MY PLAYLIST .SICK AND TIRED OF CLICKING OR TRYING TO CLICK OFF SMART SHUFFLE

 

Will this come to PC spotify as well? or will it just stay on phone mode

I forgot where i heard it but yes, they do get payed for "promoting" artists

i presume this only applies to premium subscribers?

 

 Please for the love of god make the "include smart shuffle" button be accessable to free Listener's. I'm getting tired of my song just changing even though i wanted it loop, even after i pressed the "loop" it still just goes to a song that i don't even like. So please Spotify just disable it or just make it disabled in default and make the Listener choose if he/she wants it included

Moderators on this platform are soulless shills for a greedy company which dispises its customers

The solution here ONLY applies to mobile, we need to be able to disable smart shuffle on the desktop app as well. Smart Shuffle is a terrible excuse to force AI into another app that doesn't need it. Give the user control of their music, let us turn off any and all AI features.

Don't see this option on the PC.

Thanks, this was a necessary fix as smart shuffle is an awful idea and it detracted from the spotify experience for over 2 years. 

 

Now please implement the ability to disable it on windows desktop.

Smart shuffle is truly annoying. Smart shuffle will play instead of the songs in my playlist. I'm confused though if smart shuffle is an option on my version of Spotify how come if I go to settings and I click on playback there is no option for smart shuffle or toggle whatever that is. So there is no way for me to get rid of smart shuffle. Their has been problems recently within my Spotify and it has never done this done these things before. I cannot enjoy Spotify how I did literally a week ago.
