Social distancing has forced a lot of us to shift from hanging out together in person, to spending time together virtually (video calls, on the phone, etc)—but why should listening to music have to be a separate experience, too?  Virtual listening groups would be a great way to listen to the same songs and playlists simultaneously, with friends and family no matter where they are—just like you would normally do together in real life.  This is great for setting the mood for virtual parties and hangouts, virtual Dungeons and Dragons sessions, or just to talk about and share music instantly.  Spotify can build the bridge to bring people together with music, even when we can’t really be together.

I just bought the Samsung Gear Fit Pro 2 specifically for the Spotify app (to be able to run or workout without taking my phone). But even though I increase my JBL headphones volume, it is still extremely low and I have been really disappointed. Could you please please work on adding the possibility to also control the volume from the app? Thank you! ... View more

In this quarantine period, it would be great to have the possibility to make "Spotify parties" as you can do with the Netflix party. A moderator could control the music and share a link to his friends so they could listen to the music as if they were in the same room. This system added to a multiple facetime could be a way to make virtual parties ! (idea from France) ... View more

I've been using Spotify for many years and to open my phone up and see that the widget that I've been using is just all the sudden missing is extremely disappointing. I use this all day long and don't have the option of just opening up the notifications setting as I keep my phone locked for security purposes. This new update has also disabled the music from just starting to play when I get into my car. Spending an extra 15 minutes when getting in the car to go to work thinking my brand new phone isn't working is not my idea of a good update. Please reconsider as all other music options have this feature and it would be enough to change to another service IMO.  ... View more

I recently realize Spotify is not available in Bangladesh.   My friends who are Bangladeshi Armys whenever there is new comeback for BTS, they can't stream the song on spotify. Because its not available there.   As a BTS fan its really not fair to them if they cant listen BTS song. So I hope spotify is available for all country and my Bangladeshi friends can listen the bts comeback song in Bangladesh. Please vote for this idea for make spotify available in Bangladesh. Its need 100 vote for a month and 500 vote in a year.     ... View more

We need to be able to configure the display name of devices in the "Devices" list in spotify. This doesnt have to be a feature available on every devices, maybe even a setting only available on the website so it has the most coverage if its an issue implementing it everywhere.   But    This Phone DESKTOP-I59JLM2 ECHO-4F0 Speaker GWDD-PBWETYX Galaxy S6   As a list sucks. Its a fairly basic usability feature to have that list as   This Phone Gaming PC Upstairs Echo Work Paula's Phone   Which would make the selection of a device to control/listen on far easier.   Thanks.   ...

This idea is marked as "not right now" bacuase it involves a  3rd party . Instead please support the similar idea Support USB Audio directly - bypassing the Android driver.    Background External USB headphone DAC/amps for Android phones are becoming a thing.  The release of the LG G5 and its "Hi-Fi Plus module" is an example that has been widely publicised.  What Hi-Fi has a Best DACs page that mainly lists portable audiophile kit - a few years ago the DACs in What Hi-Fi were all mains powered and large.  I would personally prefer to carry a phone and a DAC rather than a phone and a portable music player mostly because of Spotify.    USB Audio support in Android 5 (Lollypop) is imperfect - see this support thread.   AudioQuest, makers of the Dragonfly, have recommended the USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP) app.  The app uses its own USB Audio Driver to bypass the imperfect Android driver.  On my phone I get glitching and up-sampling in Spotify with the Dragonfly and the Android driver but there are no issues with UAPP.   Proposal Spotify developers could work with the makers of USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP) to support their USB Audio driver in Spotify.  I imagine that UAPP would need to be installed before Spotify would see the driver.  So I imagine UAPP's developers would help with the integration because it would lead to more sales of their app.   Advantages The UAPP developers are clearly experts at linking Android phones to USB audio devices. If there is a concern about protecting the IP in the music then working with the developer of the USB driver could be useful. e.g. to verify that the end point was a supported device. I expect Google will improve the Android drivers in the future but Spotify users, like me, are looking for audiophile sound quality now and on their current devices. Spotify's competitor Tidal is already supported by UAPP.   ... View more

I know this idea has been posted before but not any time recently as far as I can tell. I'm still not understanding why Spotify won't support offline mode for the apple watch. Pandora's app has made it very clear that this capability is possible. I really don't want to have to switch off of Spotify but if this isn't fixed soon I will have to. Can we have some update on whether or not this feature is in the works at least?  ... View more

I noticed that if I play a playlist on my amplifier at home, connected with my phone through spotify connect, it skips all the local files. I have a lot of alternative music that that I bought years ago and isn't, and probably never will be, available on spotify. I can play them on my phone, but on the amp  spotify gives an error saying "you cannot play this while connected to a device". I'm guessing this is because of some rights issue? Would be nice if it gave some explanation so you don't have to waste googling for answers that I didn't find anyway.     ... View more

(Apologies for the crosspost in Contribution, but I didn't see this subforum.)   I posted this before but it went inactive. This seems like a simple bug fix that people have been requesting for 2 3 years. (Lots of requests around the interwebs). This is only a problem in Spotify Premium. I'm assuming the ads were keeping Windows awake. I'm not sure which is more annoying, the ads or this bug.  Please fix! ... View more

Hello,   The Spotify Windows version 1.0.42.151.g19de0aa6 don't support automatic proxy detection when the network uses DHCP WPAD.   The Spotify client should be able to read the proxy configuration when DHCP Option 252 is used in an corpoate network.   Ref: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc995090.aspx   About Implementing WPAD https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc995261.aspx   The Spotify client should download the wpad.dat file, where Spotify will get the url for where this file is located by reading the DHCP Option 252 (if exist) when the client is using DHCP. The WPAD.dat contains all ip adresses of the proxy servers and ports to be used and also the adresses that shall be excluded for proxy.  Internet Explorer, Edge and Chrome browser do support DHCP WPAD so that the end user don't need to configure the proxy settings when moving between various nettvork.     Reccomend to implement DNS WPAD also at the same time for corporate networks that uses DNS WPAD.    Best Regards Horgster   ...
