To all Spotify desktop users out there: There should be collapse buttons on main/apps and collection just like on the playlists. This would make it easier to choose what you want higlighted. It is also a problem on laptop and other monitors with a 16/9 ratio where there is limited vertical resolution. From a die-hard Spotify user with at least 3 years premium account. Android, Desktop (Windows 7 and 8), Squezzebox, XBMC all connected.

Just like iTunes, it would be great if Spotify could show the currently playing track as an iChat status (and even a Skype status). That's all. Nice and easy. Not a deal-breaker, but a nice touch.

I follow over 100 playlists, many tracks exist in more than one playlist. When I listen to a song in a playlist and I switch to another list, all songs in the list get marked as "heard" (blue dot disappears), which is a good thing. But the same track again is marked as "unheard" in all other playlists. To have more control about which particular track has already been played or marked as heard, it would be better to mark this song as heard across all playlists you follow. This way you avoid listening to a song twice when checking your playlists and don't waste time.

Virtually all OSX applications have a common keyboard shortcut for Full Screen View: Control - Command - F Currently I have to use the mouse everytime I want to expand to Full Screen, and this would be very convenient. And make it feel more like Mac software and less of an exception to the rule. Thanks!

Music does not stop smoothly after closing the app. Apple Music has that feature, if you close the application while listening a music, sound stops smoothly, not suddenly. It can also be implemented for Mac.

so when you click on an artist, it shows their music, however sometimes i am able to find playlists that the artist has made, but its extremely hard to find. once you find a playlist, you can click on their name and see all their playlists. then there is an option to view their discography. i think there should be an easy option to view their personal playlists 🙂

Would be nice to see Spotify supporting Notification Center in Mountain Lion. Majority of Mac users have already updated to Mountain Lion as well so it's not a minority. Basically every song that start playing would show a notification like the Growl counterpart that already exists in Spotify.

I think it would be a nice feature if when you had your mouse over the app icon on a Mac the song and artist could show up without opening the application. What do others think?

Every morning when I open Spotify I have to see the picture and the name of a guy that I really hate and dismiss the suggestion of following him for the 100th time. I love spotify but having to see that guy's face first thing in the morning every day single day is really annoying. He is not following me on Spotify, we are not friends on facebook (we used to be) and we have some friends in common on Facebook and maybe on Spotify. I understand why spotify would suggest that I follow him, but how hard is it to 'remember' that I already said NO hundreds of times? I work with software development so I am going to say it: not hard at all. IF user has rejeceted suggestion of follow more than 10 times THEN do not suggest it again It's that simple. Please do something about it.

I was just sharing a song with a friend, and as a programmer / writer I just instinctively navigated the accompanying text using, among others, the cmd+arrow key shortcuts to skip to the end of the line... This just also skipped the track I was listening to 😞 Could text navigation shortcuts be disabled as player shortcuts while a text area has focus?

Please bring back the filter search option within playlists on desktop version on mac that no longer functions after latest update.

A minor convience but never the less, it would be wonderful if the forward & backwards swiping actions that work in Apple browsers could be duplicated in the Spotify client. That's all folks, -DrMavenRebe

I would like to see the option to right-click on a playlist in the sidebar and add that playlist to the play queue. Also, when inside the playlist, I'd like to see this option added under the "More Options" menu (referenced in the image below.)

Spaceboy88 · ‎2014-11-23

I currently have a very popular public playlist and every time someone subscribes to it, I get a notification. It would be great if I could select the type of notifications that go to desktop so I can ignore anytime someone subscribes to a playlist, however still get notified for other aspects i.e. a friend sends me music or an artist I follow has a new release.

Something that spotify is MASSIVELY missing is a good visualiser, There is a hidden attempt at one butits seriously missing a good visualiser (or more than one, the album artwork should be a standard, even if it was a kind f fullscreen album artwork image option as opposed to the forced playlist screen) that reacts to the music, is HD quality and can be put of a big screen when everyone is just listening to music in their living room. There is a previous post about this but it's closed - i dont think the issue is resolved bpurely because there is a mediocre one hidden after typing coding into the appliction. It should be a standard function on the PC application under the tab View' I now solely use Spotify and it's something that iTunes has that is greatly missing from Spotify. Im sure there would be plenty of designers that will be willing to produce one with the sufficent algoritihims.

Hi, I was thinking that it can be super cool if i can see artist and song name on my touch bar and have an opportunity to add that song as my favourite. Thanks.

ggggnt · ‎2016-06-23

Please! As soon as you arrive at the office tomorrow: this is priority nr 1! 😉

I am an avid Winamp user, and the one thing that is holding me back from being a spotify user is a really simple thing: You cannot see your playlist while browsing! I've attached a mockup using simple Paint: mockup.png Here is how Winamp actually handles it: winamp.png Some benefits: + Always know what song is next and what is coming down the line + Notice in Winamp it doesn't remove songs as they are played, so you can easily see what was played so you don't re-add it + You can drag a song directly into the queue EXACTLY where you want it, no need to Add it then have to click a new window to drag it I use this feature on a daily basis to make actively playing playlists at work, for parties, and just for hanging out at home. I'll never be able to abandon Winamp until a feature like this is present in Spotify.

What about an offline Mode for the whole Songs in "Your Library" on the Mac? It is also available on the iPhone I mean not to download single Playlists - I think of downloading the whole Songs you have saved.

Where did all the apps go after the latest update to the Desktop version on Mac? I visit multiple apps per day including the ADM app and the Pitchfork app especially.
