Username instead of display name on playlists in Android app

[sirkula]

So a number of people have already remarked on this (but their forum messages have been closed for new comments, so here's a new post), but the Android app displays the automatically generated user name on the playlists (see attachment). That's not a nice user experience. It's alienating.

Signing in and out of app doesn't help. (Installing it wholly new doesn't either.) The Windows desktop uses the display names as do other screens within the Android app (see attachment). It appears to be a bug. Can someone verify this and perhaps flag it with the developers? Or if there's any remedy, please let me know.

Hey @sirkula, welcome to the Community.

Hope you're doing great!

You can add your vote and comment in this idea thread so this behaviour can be changed. Also, make sure to follow it for any updates.

Thanks 🙂

Hi Loxer, thanks for your suggestion - I'm not sure why I missed it until now.

The issues reported in Nico's new idea though appears to be quite different, so I don't think addressing that will fix this. But now that I know about this ideas section, I'll add this particular bug to the request!
