The new update is awful. The artists tab should include saved artists, not just those we follow. The albums tab should show albums that just have a few songs saved again. And the recently played should be more prominent. Give us the option to view the whole album art on screen and only that. Stop removing features! The more complicated options we have as users to organize and view our library, the better. I signed up for spotify because it felt designed for people who are serious about listening to and organizing music. The most recent update, along with smaller changes over the last year, are ruining the experience. PLEASE undo the changes to this last update, particularly how artists and albums are grouped. I have never considered Apple Music previously but I am looking into it after this. There are so many benefits to Spotify but it feels like they are slowly being lost to dumb “silicon valley” type trends in app design. Feels like Spotify is waging a war on the idea of keeping a music library at all. Please stop.

Ha. "New and Improved" my left foot!!!! How is getting rid of an alphabetized list of my saved artists any bit of an improvement??? I don't need to see "Recommended Artists" when I am on the "Artists" tab. I have already saved their music to my library. No need to recommend them to me. Show me a list of my saved artists in ALPHABETICAL order. Not some randomized order that you create at will. Wow, you provide us with a "Search" feature... What if I want to find an artist and I can't remember their name? Guess I have to scavenge through that randomized list and find what I'm looking for. What a GREAT "Improvement"!!!! And when I "Start Song Radio", the song radios do not appear in the "Recently Played" section. Again, how is that any bit of an improvement???? How LAUGHABLE and absolutely RIDICULOUS. Not only did you make unnecessary changes, the "New and Improved" update brought LAGGINESS to my app that I've never experienced in my 4+ years as a Premium member using the Spotify for Android app. From my observations, it seems as if 90%+ of these users are nothing but unhappy about this new app interface. And with good reason. Better fix this nonsensical update ASAP!!!!

The first update removing the Queue icon from the upper right hand corner of the Now Playing screen, showing the number of songs in your queue was a bad move in my opinion. You replaced it’s place with the Song Options link, which did not need to be moved at all. Now this new update that changed the Library section to only show playlists, artists, and albums, with big icon lists that you have to scroll down a bunch with, with the Recently Played section removed.. everything is so much less functional and less options are on one screen than before. People want less navigation and more functionality. It’s looking like a cheap web-player layout with big icons and lists that work well for those that can’t see well without glasses, but make it harder for everybody else. Change it back, please. I don’t know what you guys are trying to go for, but it’s not as good.

Spotify so far does not send confirmation email to change email address, and hackers can easily change the email address without clicking the confirmation link from original email inbox. The original owner cannot reset the password because the email address is already changed to a fake one. Please send a confirmation link to the original email address, in order to change the email address to a new one.

Hello Spotify, exactly how high were you on 4.20 when you came up with this icon redesign for the Android Mobile app? Please change it back. Thank you!

So the most recent update of Spotify, with the updated layout and having saved songs moved to "liked songs" sucks. Why would you change it? The previous design was 100x better. Please revert these changes.

There has been a design change to the android app, which makes the usage much more inconvenient: 1. The sorting of folders and of playlists in folders is not displayed anymore. Playlists and folders are sorted by their last usage, 2. The list "last heard" (or the like) in the library is removed (Yes, the section at "start" still exists but this is no list in which you can search easily or use the menus), 3. The new design, in which playlists and folders are displayed quite big makes it hard to easily overlook respective playlists and folders, 4. The "Podcast" menu (like all other menus) was much easier to handle before the change (here it is a real pain in the a...). I would therefore suggest to 1. Bring back these opitons or make it optional for users to change back the design of their app, 2. stop changing the design every two months!

For the most part I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time with Spotify since joining up almost 2 years ago. I was impressed to learn of the Spotify Community where help was available with a couple of issues early on. Unfortunately, it all went badly downhill after hitting the 10K limit of songs that can be saved to the music library. I found the related thread has literally thousands of posts from people also experiencing the same problem, but the really frustrating part was the lack of feedback of any kind from Spotify staff. I checked other threads to find exactly the same thing – heartfelt complaints from dedicated music fans being met with a wall of silence. So, I would like to request more regular feedback from Spotify on the big issues – even if they aren’t going to be addressed in the immediate time-frame, some sort of comment that lets members know their concerns are being considered and if possible a timeframe for when a fix will be implemented. Its really frustrating to keep contributing to the threads when people think their voices aren’t being heard. A couple of examples: “Increase maximum Songs allowed in Your Music” Votes: 9778, Thread Length: 463 pages Idea Submitted April 2014, Last Update from Spotify: Sept 2017 – 1 year 7 months ago (marked as a Good Idea). “Bring back Lyrics” Votes: 11,982, Thread length: 100 pages Idea Submitted May 2016 Last Status Update from Spotify: May 2016 – 2 years 11 months ago (marked as Watch This Space). So please Spotify take this suggestion seriously. Just a quick read through any of the threads is enough to show you are losing a lot of premium members to other service providers. I myself would love to stay with Spotify but that's become increasingly unlikely. A little bit of interest shown from you guys would go a long way :)

Hi Spotify, Please eliminate the ads with car horns/honking in them. Or at least edit the clip to remove those sounds. It is a safety issue affecting the mental health and well-being of listeners (from previous posts, it is startling and fear-inducing for both pedestrians and drivers listening to Spotify). Apparently this problem has been around since 2015. I heard the ad today, on the app, 1/2/19. When I did a quick search of the word “honking” in the community boards, one update said this issue was addressed in 2017 (https://community.spotify.com/t5/Implemented-Ideas/All-Platforms-Other-Do-not-make-ads-with-car-horns-in-them/idi-p/1217695) Please look into this ad again since it is still playing and there are still posts from 2018 about it. Thanks for reading, and I hope this gets resolved soon.

The swipe to queue and add track to library gestures are no longer working on any Artist's "Popular" songs. The gestures still work in other locations such as when viewing albums, playlists, or searched songs. This feature is important to me because when a song comes on from an artist I haven't listened to and like, I visit artists pages and queue up their Popular songs to see if I like some of their other releases. This allows me to easily and quickly save the songs and artist if I like them or pass them up and continue with my playlist/radio if I do not. The ease of access is especially important while I'm working, exercising, or driving. I'm guessing the loss of functionality has to do with the recent UI change to Artist's pages (Pictures are now a cover picture behind their artists names and follow button look and position change).

Hi from Azerbaijan! We want to able to use Spotify in here, please. Last time we tried but it didn’t get enough upvote so you didn’t make it happen. But I'm pretty sure a lot people from here ready use Spotify. You can check the activity of azerbaijani listeners from other music streaming applications such as Apple Music, Deezer, Yandex music, Vk music, SoundCloud etc. It’s really hyped right now. Even though, Azerbaijan is a small country, people from here totally into music. And also I have personally tried all of other music streaming platforms but Spotify is unique about creating song radio, offering a weekly discover, recommending related songs, playlists from Spotify and from other users. Also I have observed that tourists from other countries are preet upset when they can’t use Spotify in here (after 1-2 week it shows a problem about country as they said). So, im looking forward to see good news from you. And I can help whatever it takes. Thanks, love you all!

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!

Build a draggable widget for the desktop & web application, please. Would be nice to change music without having to switch windows ( for those working on Their computers).

I added an Instagram filter to Spotify, and wow, it looks amazing. If this was refined and added natively to the app, I think it could really give Spotify an amazing visual style. It’d be great to browse a native app where we could choose the feel of the colour scheme. Filter Enabled Default

Really loving the Google Home integration with Spotify, but I wish it had more commands. One I miss in particular is "Play [song] next" or "Add [song] to queue", just like the right-click command "Add to Queue" on desktop or the tap-and-hold "Add to Up Next" on mobile.

I propose that Spotify reach more devices such as smart TV that do not have an Android operating system, those that have an OS like Opera will also have to have Spotify in order to enjoy the content on any device and not only on the of recognized brands or those who have android tv would be perfect to implement Spotify in more application stores of different smart tv

Hey! I just want to let you know that there's a country named Bosnia and Herzegowina in the Balkan (EUROPE). We love music. We really love music. Could it be possible to make Spotify work here? A lot of German (and other EU) people come here on vacation and feel bad, because they can't listen to their favourite music, and then we feel bad, too, beacause they're feeling bad. Please, almighty developers, please let us enjoy music, like everyone else in the world. WE WILL PAY FOR PREMIUM! This should be a constructive critic: Why is Deezer working like a charm here, but Spotify not? Please... I need answers and just one solution :) Greetings from Bosnia! P.S.: Come and visit us, we have ćevapi. ;)

There should be an "Incognito mode" available so not to mess the recommendation system when we hear one guilty pleasure song or something that a friend suggested and we ended up not liking.

A way to loop an individual song without making a playlist would be nice.
Like a option in the dropdown menu that you could use to start playing it on loop.
Thanks to @musicblaster for some nice use cases!
Use case:
As a performing artist, I use Spotify to listen to songs and would like to work out passages by repeat-playing only short segments of songs in a loop forever.
Use case:
As a hobbyist DJ, I want to use Spotify at a party and easily loop some portions of songs.
Use case:
When running a haunted house, I want to play just the few creepy sound effects of this one song forever.
