In the new IOS 14 Update Apple released the new Spatial Aufio feature for their Airpods Pro, but this Feature is not aviable in any music app yet and it would be great if it would be added to Spotify so i can listen to my favorite music in 3d

The Google Chrome app has a mini-player, but for some reason the desktop version doesn't. That would be super nice to have, and doesn't seem too hard to implement (it has already been put in the chrome version..)

Here's a weird idea, it's august 2019 and Android has been around for 12 years. Apps and come and gone, some apps have this thing called a widget, something you can place on your homescreen and control the app from. It works really well and you as a company, who state over and over again how you value your users and that you want to be in the forefront of user experience, should really look into developing one...

Hi Spotify, I think it would be really neat to connect Fitbit and Spotify. That way, when I am listening to an audiobook, or anything, on Spotify as I'm going to sleep, there will be a note of where I was in my audiobook when I fell asleep. I know Fitbit doesn't track sleep under an hour but it will tell you what time you went to sleep once you sleep for more than an hour. So while it would be most ideal for the audiobook/music to stop playing as soon you fall asleep, the way that Fitbit works, the next best thing would be to note what time in a track I was in so I don't have to search what I last remember hearing of the story. Also if I could look at my Fitbit to see what song is playing that would be cool.

Spotify, do you want to be the best and keep being the best? Do you want to keep satisfy your listeners? Here is my idea: open up a section inside "idea exchange" where it enables us to give you names of music (artists, songs etc.) that we want Spotify to have. This deserves a special place making it easily for us to find and come back to. This could be a way to make Spotify the biggest music bank: a library with everything earth has to offer; served with the best sound quality I hope to keep being able to stay on Spotify! Thank you for everything and goodwill to you.

I want to "bookmark" or highlight the important or favorite part of a podcast or music. so we can listen to it again easily. No need to listening or scanning through the entire podcast/song, or write the exact minute/second it plays the favorite part.

Please create a membership specifically for yoga studios/(businesses that use music in their classes) and with spotify, to include the PRO licensing in the membership, as yogi tunes does. Please create a membership for spotify so our businesses can play spotify legally in our classes and that the artists we use actually get acknowledged. We would all like to stay loyal to spotify please 🙏

I really cannot understand why on earth Spotify refuses just to implement fast forward and rewind buttons/functionatlity in the Android Auto app. This seems very easy to do and would not take time at all to implement. Instead I see in this community because poeple not "giving kudos" enough it is being dissmissed. Just do it!

Android applications seem to support some form of integration with the Android OS to identify as a music player. Going to: Settings > Apps > *Gear Icon* > *Default Section* > Music app: I'm able to select which application on my phone should be the default app for music, and the phone presents me with a list of choices: Google Play Music MX Player Pro ES File Explorer Pro IPTV Pro. As you can see, Spotify is not on the list. If those apps can make it to the list, so can Spotify. Would be really great to see official integration with Android in this regard, especially because such integration helps a lot when connecting the phone with the car! Screenshot attached. Phone: OnePlus 5 OS: Oxygen OS 4.5.2 / Android 7.1.1 OS Build: ONEPLUS A5000_23_170624 Thanks (P.S. Originally posted in the Android section, but was recommended to post it here)

Happy that Spotify has implemented Touchbar integration with the new line of Macbook Pros, but I'm a little shocked that nowhere on the Touchbar is the current song name shown. Using the feature from inside other apps brings up the pause/play/next/back functions with a very large scroll bar to scrobble through the song. I feel that fitting the song name + artist would be totally doable in this space. This feature would be especially useful within Radio or playlists such as charts/Discover Weekly. Something to consider - would be greatly appreciated!

As of 1/8/2018 the spotify widget is currently on a 1x4 size. Many newer phones have the ability to hold more icon columns (more than 4) therefore the spotify player looks poorly made and ill fitting. I know that google play, and samsung play provide the ability to resize the widget to match the width/# of icon columns you have on your screen. Can it be possible to allow the widget to be resizeable like other music playing competitor apps? It feels weird that spotify doesn't take this idea into account. It has been submitted many times on the forum: https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Music-Still-no-resizable-widget/idi-p/1453390 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/Android-Widget-Scale-for-bigger-phone/idi-p/1450583 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Resizable-Widget/idi-p/4158889 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Other-Widget-Size-Adjustment/idi-p/1280262 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Other-Spotify-widget-resizing-on-Android/idi-p/1808261 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Closed-Ideas/Android-Widget-should-be-resizable/idi-p/1151879 https://community.spotify.com/t5/Android/Spotify-Widget/m-p/760295 I assume it isn't that much work to do compared to some of the other ideas I have seen you guys implement. Please look into this, as there are definitely people complaining about this everywhere. Thanks, Zach

It baffles me that this option was taken away, but with the latest build of Spotify, which replaced the old inbox with the very unneeded message threads, there is no way to delete messages. I was told to submit this as an idea, but I'm shocked I even have to. Next thing, I'll be submitting an idea to allow me to shut Spotify down after I'm done using it. EDIT: I'd also like to add, as some of you have, that it's somewhat disturbing to find very old messages that I "deleted" two years ago now appearing in my Messages box again. Which means Spotify held on to those private messages, even though I hit that Delete button. Not good. EDIT #2: Hi, everyone. It's been A YEAR AND A HALF since I posted this, and as you can see, even after 19 pages of comments and almost 700 kudos, Spotify hasn't done anything about it besides call it a "good idea". Thanks, Spotify. Because of this issue, and because of Spotify's reluctance to listen to the community on an issue which I feel is way more important than the color of the background, I have barely touched Spotify in the past 6-7 months. There are other alternatives these days. While they may not be perfect, at least they seem to respect my privacy more than Spotify, which is extremely important to me. Keep the comments and kudos coming, friends. I appreciate all of you backing me on this. Hopefully, Spotify will fix this issue at some point in the next decade. Until then, I'll be enjoying other streaming services. EDIT #3: Whelp. Checked back three years after initially posting this to find that the folks at Spotify deemed this invasion of privacy unimportant, and gave it a "Not Right Now", even after 1,268 votes and 33 pages of comments.Much more important that they change the font of that one band's name. Spotify Peeps, being able to delete your private messages shouldn't be an "idea" or even a "suggestion". It should be common sense. But whatever. I've been very happy over at Apple Music. I urge everyone reading this to remain on the free Spotify plan, switch to the free plan, or stop using Spotify altogether. There really are other good options out there. Farewell, and keep the comments and votes coming, people!

I have notised that when you have a very long playlist and you have to shuffle the playlist after you have listened to somting else, the songs that you listened to the time before that can come again among the first songs in the list. For exampel you first listened to 10 songs of your playlist and then you listens for an example a podcast and you need to shuffle your p laylist again you notice that the same songs that you listened to the time before comes among the first songs. When this happens many times in a row you have missed a lot of songs. So my suggestion is that you make so the software count how many times that you have listened to that song in that playlist. So the next time you shuffle it makes so the songs that you lisend to the most comes after the songs that you have listened less to. And after a month the counted numbers resets.

Today the Ipad app was updated to change the layout to be the same as the Iphone app with the nav bar at the bottom. All i can say is why? Why would you do this? The Ipad app used to essentially use two halfs of the screen serepatly, the left side being the previouse pannel you were on and the right being the one you are on. This worked perfectly and meant you could swap between playlists and tracks easily and it meant there was NO wasted space. This previouse layout was clearly designed for Ipad and worked perfectly and was very userfriendly so WHY WHY WHY would you change it to this: (attachment) Pretty much 80% of the screen is wasted blank space and there is no way to easily see what playlist you are playing. Basically each pannel seen in the image of the previous layout now fills the entire screen and you have to use a back arrow at the top left to go to other pannels. This NEEDS to change, it is not acceptable to change a perfectly good layout to one designed for a much smaller screen for seemingly no reason, the only update note is that they changed the layout to that of Iphones so this update was completely pointless and just ruined the layout. The nav bar being at the bottom is unnecissary, there was nothing wrong with it being at the side. Whats happened is a high up who has no idea about what people want or anything about thier own app have told thier team to bring out an update because one hasnt been out for a while even though thier is no need for one. I seriously hope more people get on Spotifys **bleep** about this because this needs to be changed because frankly it less userfriendly then the previouse layout and ugly AF. Once again we see a software provider updating thier software for no good reason only to make things worse, these companies need to understand that thiers nothing wrong with leaving something the way it is. If it aint broke dont fix it!

Any progress on enabling crossfade while casting to a Chromecast Audio device? Has been asked many times over the years but, despite positive community feedback, has still not been implemented. Would be an awesome feature when playing music over chromecast for parties to avoid silence between songs.

I really don't like having multiple songs dropping F-bombs especially when those songs aren't marked "Explicit." There used to be an option to report incorrectly tagged songs in the desktop client. Please restore that tool.
